Holiday Gift Guide: Christian-Themed Gifts!

We’re back with our final holiday gift guide of this year: Christian-themed gifts!

While you certainly don’t have to buy (or even make) Christmas gifts for your friends and family, we know that many of you might want to…it’s so much fun to give during the holidays! As we’ve said, you should first consider talking to your closest pals and family about exchanging gifts before you make a decision on whether or not to get anything. If your pals are low on cash and/or time, they might want to make an agreement not to exchange gifts. While surprises are fun, giving someone a gift who hadn’t planned to give you one back can sometimes leave the other person feeling guilty. So get on the same page as your buds! Maybe you make a pact to make each other gifts instead, or set a limit on what you can spend (say, $10).

In order to get your creative juices flowing, we rounded up a few of our favorite inexpensive store-bought and handmade gifts for your Christian friends and family. Let us know your picks in the comments below, and be sure to share any tips and insights into buying for the holidays!

 

FIVE FUN GIFTS

 

CROSS NECKLACE

The sideways cross necklace trend is very popular, so it’s easy to find tons of affordable picks, both online and in jewelry stores like Claire’s. This is a beautiful and meaningful gift for a loved one, and even if the sideways trend isn’t your (or their) style, you can always find lots of variations on cross necklaces and other pieces of jewelry. Shopping for a guy? Look online for cross cuffs, male rings and more masculine necklaces. There’s a treasure trove to discover! 

 

PERSONALIZED BIBLE

Pick out a Bible for a friend or family member and then choose a personalized engraving of their name or initials for the cover. This is a sweet way to help celebrate both the recipient and the most important book in both of your lives! 

 

BIBLE QUOTE KEYCHAIN, NECKLACE OR BRACELET

You’ll find tons of shops offering various Bible quotes printed on necklaces, bracelets and keychains. You can search for your friend or family member’s favorite verse or find a shop that takes custom orders. There are lots of affordable options, and you can shop around for a font and style you know your loved one will like. 

 

A BOOK

If you’ve got a family member or friend who loves to read, we highly recommend the Christian-themed Chronicles of Narnia boxed set. The stories are beautiful, meaningful and, with seven books total, will keep a reader busy for months! 

 

A MOVIE

We’ve talked a lot lately about awesome Christian films, and we know how much many of you girls love movies. Gift one of your favorites to a sibling or friend, and enjoy watching it together and chatting away!
