7 Devotional Recommendations for Christians

Photo by Felix Mittermeier from Pexels

Devotions are great tools for Christians. I love them! Recently, I have started collecting them in all different formats. I have found that I have some that I love for when I have time sit and spend thirty minutes with my Bible and the book, and others that I enjoy reading while waiting in line at the gas station.

Shereadstruth.com

A free resource that is perfect for women! I love following She Reads Truth reading plans. They are heavy in Bible verses and you will often spend more time reading the Bible than the devotion. Which makes this a great choice if you want to start reading your Bible more. You can also buy the scriptures in a beautiful book format.

Proverbs 31 Women (online and book format.)

Another great devotional site. This one is great for quick devotionals. You can use it on your phone or download their app for free access to daily devotions. I also love their paper form devos.

New Morning Mercies by Paul David Trip

This one of my favorites, in-fact it is currently sitting beside me right now. But be warned, Trip will step on your toes with each devotional. It is a length devotional also, but it is worth it. It full of God's word and honesty.

Foundations by Robert Gallaty

This one is made especially for the busy believer. It has a lot of offer and it meant to last roughly a year of daily reading.

Embraced by Lysa Terkerust

Lysa Terkerust is a huge name in Christian living books and for good reason. Her devotion is not only beautiful but filled with God's truths.

Dear College Girl Devotional

I have read this one over and over in college. It deals with so many everyday struggles of being in college. Everything from grades to the fear of not having the college experience you dreamed of. Available for purchase here.

Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon

This is a classic. If you want to dive into something that many Christians have found helpful and can vouch for, this is a perfect choice. Morning and Evening is perfect for the Christian wanting to grow into maturity in their relationship with God.

No matter what devotion you choose, if it is centered in God's word it will be a great choice. Also, for other ideas check out Amazon's top sellers in the Christian book section. Often devotionals find their way on to the list.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1089

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

Washington College

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
