20 Devotional Books Every Christian Should Read

I hope you love the products and resources I recommend here at A Little R & R. Just so you know, it is possible that I get a commission and collect income from the links on this page. Click here for more info.

I am not a doctor, none of the information on any of these pages pertaining to the Ketogenic Diet or Adrenal Fatigue should be considered medical advice and should not replace the care of your personal physician. I am simply eager to share the information I have learned while on my own journey to health. Before you embark on this journey, please consult with your physician.

Stacks of books at a library

I don’t think its any secret that I love to read as much as I love to write. I am typically reading no less than two books at a time. While its true that lately its taken me far longer to read through a book than before I had kids, I find that I simply cannot not read.

While perusing my book selves (and Kindle), I ran across some “old friends”…and new ones that I can’t wait to try.

That is why I wanted to create this list of books every Christian should read. 

In addition to the books I’ve been waiting to read, here are some books I think every Christian should read at least once.

These books have shaped my personal walk with Christ and have become landmarks in my journey with the Lord. I encourage every Christian to get them and add them to their regular reading.

20 Books Every Christian Should Read

Many of these books I’ve read more than once. Some of them I read regularly, because the message of them is timeless and grows with my growing spiritual maturity.

While no book can replace the Bible, it is imperative that we invite great men and women of God – trusted men and women of God who have endured in their walk with Christ – to speak into our lives. Hebrews instructs us in this.

  1. I’ve only heard of a few of these books and have only read one (Women Living Well) which I loved. I have ‘The Heavenly Man’ and I just picked up ‘The Virtuous Life of a Christ-Centered Wife.’ Will have to look up the others. : )

    Thanks for the recommendations and for your link-up!

  2. Thank you for sharing this list – I don’t know that I’ve read any of these books. I’ll have to check some of them out!
    Thank you for joining us at Grace & Truth.

  3. This is a great list! I would add pretty much anything by C.S. Lewis or Philip Yancey (especially ‘Disappointment With God.’)! There are some books on this list I have not read yet… I will have to check them out!

  4. Heard of some of these, but not all!

    Thanks so much for sharing on this week’s Mom 2 Mom Link Up Party! Hope you come join us again soon 🙂
