Books We Love

I don't say this lightly: this has become my favorite book of all time. From the very first chapter I was hooked, and before long I was weeping.

Y'all told me for months to jump on this bandwagon, and I'm so sorry I waited. I told myself I'd stop after Book 4 — alas, I couldn't. Consider this your sign.

For the reader who has everything. An absolute delight on audiobook — smart, funny, and heartfelt. You have to listen to this one.

Honest, hope-filled, and deeply rooted in Scripture. If you've ever wrestled with sorrow, grief, or unanswered prayer, it offers language for your pain.

If you're a woman aged 13 to 99, you've struggled with invasive thoughts. What I love most is how practical it is — guided meditations worth taking weeks to work through.

When the lies feel louder than the truth, I pull this out and instantly the Lord uses it to quiet them. Whether you're in the fight or not, read this book.

The way Russ Ramsey explores the intersection of art, suffering, and the human condition is simply beautiful. Even if art “isn't your thing,” this is a must-read.

The classic that started it all — letters from one devil to another. Pairs beautifully with My Dear Hemlock as a two-book gift.

The first half is heavy as it exposes modern smartphone use, but by the second half the hope of the gospel shines through, and you walk away with real hope. And it's my husband's book, so I need to support him. ;-)

My kids range from 2 to 9, and each one finds something in the daily readings that encourages their heart toward Christ. The perfect stocking stuffer.

Arlo learns he can't fly — that he is exactly who God has made him to be: a little boy, made in God's image. A clean, gentle gospel hook.

Slow, character-driven storytelling that's hard to find these days. By the end I was full-blown crying. (Heads up: books 1–2 lean hard on “stupid” and “dumb.”)

A household favorite — engaging stories with beautiful illustrations. Mini biographies of ordinary people God used to do extraordinary things.
