Recently, I had the opportunity to review FamilyChristian.com\u00a0with a $25 certificate.\u00a0 FamilyChristian.com has\u00a0a wide selection of items\u00a0from gifts, d\u00e9cor\u00a0and apparel to\u00a0books, Bibles and much more!\u00a0 They even\u00a0sell\u00a0things for churches and various\u00a0ministries.\u00a0 If you are looking for something faith based please check out FamilyChristian.com or one of their local stores!

\nWhen looking at what to spend my $25 on I took a look at the Bibles that FamilyChristian.com carries.\u00a0\u00a0I have been looking for a new Bible for a while and haven’t found anything that was what I was looking for.\u00a0 I was interested in a journaling Bible but nothing stood out in the Bible translations that I preferred until I came across the ESV Journaling Bible: Interleaved Edition w\/ strap – Brown Leather<\/a> at FamilyChristian.com!\u00a0 It has a FULL blank page next to every page of Bible text!!!\u00a0 Most of the other journaling Bibles only\u00a0have extra wide margins and that wasn’t enough space for me!\u00a0 The other problem that I was running into was\u00a0the majority of the journaling\u00a0Bibles\u00a0had lined margins, which I didn’t want.\u00a0 Sadly, this Bible did not go into my cart due to the cost ($129.99) but it\u00a0was added to my wishlist!<\/p>\n

I love to read and there is\u00a0a large selection of books to choose from at FamilyChristian.com!\u00a0\u00a0You will see\u00a0all of the books that are sold in stores as well as at FamilyChristian.com.\u00a0 There is not a filter to\u00a0filter out the items that are sold at stores only so if you do not have a store close by you, you will see many products that are sold in stores only.\u00a0\u00a0Here is what I finally decided on buying with my $25.\u00a0 Traces of Guilt<\/a> by Dee Henderson\u00a0and The Amish Nanny<\/a> by Leslie Gould and Mindy Starns Clark.\u00a0 Dee Henderson is\u00a0one of my favorite authors and this is one of her newest books and The Amish Nanny is the second book in a series called ‘The Women of Lancaster County Series #2’.\u00a0 Since I enjoyed book one I decided to go ahead and get the second book.\u00a0 I am excited to receive them!<\/span><\/p>\n
