1. Word Before World: 100 Devotions to Put Jesus First

Taken from the description:

“Gretchen Saffles knows what it’s like to struggle to put Jesus first daily. During a season of spiritual discouragement, she learned that pursuing God is ultimately not a self-help journey, but rather it’s a Spirit-led surrender. This discovery led her to a simple phrase that helped her reframe how she desired to spend her time, start her days, and shape her mindset: Word before World. This three-word statement has become her morning manifesto, her afternoon anthem, and her evening comfort. When she practiced looking first to Jesus, she realized that while God’s Word never changes, yet it always changes us.

In Word before World you’ll discover ways to:

• Conquer the daily distractions that get in the way of time with God
• Develop a daily rhythm of seeking Jesus
• Set aside your phone, lists, and plans in order to seek direction and nourishment in God’s Word instead
• Transform your worldview, schedule, dreams, and desires to align with God’s purpose for your life.

Cultivate a deep love for God in this 100-day devotional journey to experience God’s faithfulness and goodness. Put God’s Word before the distractions of this world, believing that he will meet your every need.”

2. The Well-Watered Woman: Rooted in Truth, Growing in Grace, Flourishing in Faith.

Taken from the description:

Discover the bottomless, refreshing Well of God’s Word―and experience a fullness and peace beyond your circumstances.
In the chaos of our everyday, it can be difficult to live out and apply the truths of Scripture. We want more of Jesus, but we find ourselves looking to our own lives and accomplishments for our worth and identity. And while that may buoy us for a time, we’re often left feeling dried up, discouraged, and longing for more.

Gretchen Saffles knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and unable to flourish. In The Well-Watered Woman, Gretchen leads us to the Well of fullness, the Word of freedom, and the Way of fruitfulness. She teaches that God’s Word will satisfy us for all eternity.

Using Scripture and her own personal story of surrender, Gretchen offers spiritually hungry women tangible tools to not only know Jesus more but to live a life that thoroughly enjoys Him, seeks Him, and follows Him into freedom.

3. ESV Journaling Bible

This Bible has plenty of space for extensive notetaking.

4. Gospel Mom by Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler

Taken from the description:

Emily A. Jensen and Laura Wifler, bestselling authors of Risen Motherhood [over 150,000 copies sold], show moms how to navigate their everyday decisions and current circumstances through a biblical lens, and experience the freedom and confidence in who God made them to be.

If there’s one thing moms love, it’s a formula. Give us the three-step process, the instruction manual, the straightforward solution for how to mother with excellence and we’ll give it our best shot.

But we all know motherhood isn’t that simple. Each decision seems to present a thousand overwhelming options, or our circumstances suddenly change and we can’t keep up with “the plan,” or we see another mom making different choices and begin to doubt our own.

5. Practicing Thankfulness: Cultivating a Grateful Heart in All Circumstances by Sam Crabtree

Taken from the description:

Christians are called to be thankful.

What we believe about God is evident in how we exhibit thankfulness for all he has done. In this book, pastor Sam Crabtree encourages us to express glad-hearted thankfulness for God’s unending provision in all circumstances. Through the daily practices of expressing gratitude―saying “thank you” to a neighbor, serving others in practical ways, or simply thanking God for his many gifts―we recognize the absolute and total lordship of God and his sovereignty over all things.

6. You Are A Theologian: An Invitation to Know and Love God Well by Jen Wilkin

Taken from the description:

Theology can be intimidating. Perhaps questions like these have kept you from engaging with it: “What is theology?” “Who does theology?” “What happens if I get something wrong?”

Theology can be intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be. Whether conversations about theology have felt out of reach, over your head, or irrelevant, consider this book an invitation to the dialogue.

The goal of theology is knowing and loving God well. This is a lifelong endeavor, a never-ending pursuit, not for the sake of knowledge, but for an ever-deepening relationship with God Himself. Authors Jen Wilkin and J. T. English invite you to become not merely a consumer of theology, but a contributor to the conversation, and to grow in faithfulness to the Great Commission’s call to make disciples.

You are a theologian.

You Are a Theologian addresses theological questions such as:

• Who is God? The Doctrine of the Trinity
• What is God like? The Attributes of God
• What is the Bible? The Doctrine of Scripture
• Who are we? The Doctrine of Humanity
• What went wrong? The Doctrine of Sin
• What has God done? The Doctrines of Christology, Atonement, and Justification
• To whom do we belong? The Doctrine of the Church
• How does the story end? The Doctrine of Last Things
