My guest today is my close friend and three-time coauthor Ruth Schwenk. Ruth has a passion for helping moms grow better through her popular website TheBetterMom. Today she is helping us in the area of gift-giving, sharing some great spiritual growth book and Bible ideas for the kids in our lives. Here’s Ruth…

*********************

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I love this time of year because giving gifts is one of my very favorite things to do! But not just any gift. I love giving meaningful gifts. For my children, it has become a tradition over the years to give each child one gift, in particular, to spur them on and encourage them in their faith, which can be a Bible, journal, devotional etc. I also get one gift for the whole family, such as an advent book, game etc.

There is something so special when the loved ones in our lives can see the sentiment behind the gifts we give them. Those will be the gifts they remember.

Below are some of the most meaningful gifts you can give children this Christmas.

  1. My favorite Bible to give is the Life Application Bible. I gave a new one to my sister last year. Over the years I have found many encouraging devotional books to give. It depends on the person th whom I am giving the gift. Thank you for the suggestions on your helpful list!

  2. This year I bought my son the Billy Graham Devotional for kids! I can’t wait to read it to him every single day! I hope to continue to build his love for Jesus day by day!

  3. Great list of books…wonderful suggestions in the comments too. We still have the action bible! I love the ideas of devotions as gifts.

  4. My kids loved the action bible when they were younger. And we give the kids at our daycare the Jesus storybook bible when they graduate!! I love these.

  5. Love the list of book suggestions. Our favorite give away book isn’t spiritual or bible related really. It’s called “The Trellis and the Seed” and it’s a lovely reminder that God has plans for all of us, even if they don’t look like everyone else’s plan. It was gifted to me when my youngest child was diagnosed with autism and has been a constant reminder that she is perfect as she is.

  6. I want to try that Advent book for next year. I just got a women’s NIV Bible filled with devotionals from the women of proverbs 31 and so far I love it.

  7. I do like One More Step by Rachel Wojo because sometimes people are struggling so much they need to be reminded to trust God and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

  8. This year I got each of my children (3) and Husband a prayer journal. I also got a family prayer calendar so we can pray individually and as a family! I’m excited to see how our prayer lives as a family are changed this year.

  9. I got my daughter a Bible for litle girls and their mother’s. She isn’t quite old enough to understand the significance yet but hopefully one day soon :)

  10. The Power of a Praying Husband, Wife, Parent ,etc. are great books depending on who it is for. They are a great series!
