Clearly Christian Readathon

2024 Clearly Christian Readathon

What You Read Shapes Who You Become

The heart of this readathon is to identify, celebrate, and promote books that are unashamed in clearly proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

This upcoming year, we invite you to participate in the #ClearlyChristianReadathon!

Let's be intentional with the books that we read by following Philippians 4:8: "Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

As a result, may we become Christians who increasingly exhibit the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23: "love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control."

With God's help, we want our reading to continually point toward Him, spurring us to reflect Him in our lives.

Ways to Participate:

Short on time? The Bible is the best place to be and the best place to start. Begin by memorizing Philippians 4:8 and Galatians 5:22-23 and spending time each day with God. There are no rules, just a genuine desire to see readers choose the Bible first.
Have more time? Commit to reading 24 #ClearlyChristianBooks in 2024. Each month, select a book that reflects Philippians 4:8 and another one that reflects Galatians 5:22-23. You can cycle through all of the attributes (more than once!) or select the ones that God may be impressing on your heart the most. If you don't have 24 Christian books to choose from, books of the Bible count!
Have even more time? Share these books with other readers using the hashtag #ClearlyChristianReadathon and how God has been using it in your life. Help other readers find edifying Christian titles by posting your reviews and thoughts! If you are on Goodreads, you can join the Clearly Christian Readathon group to meet like-minded readers and share your experiences there as well.

Join Devoted to Hope, Christian Books and Coffee, and me in this reading adventure for 2024!

Send us a message on our blogs or Instagram accounts, and we can send you materials to get you started, or just join the group to see all the fun things that are being posted 😄

This is not a light read, but it's one that is captivating and thought-provoking as we see the world descend into further wickedness and lawlessness.

Review: The Intrepid Three - Animus Rising

How exciting that The Intrepid Three: Animus Rising by Brianna and Matthew Penfold will soon be available on July 31, 2026! This is a book that I could not stop annotating; I really have to give a lot of credit to this lovely wife-and-husband writing team for capturing so many sentiments in such a poetic way. Not only is the world building a spectacular journey on its own, the words to get us there have just as much layered meaning. Many thanks to the authors for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis The Intrepid Three are back to continue their quest to restore their worlds. Dez, Arabella, and Walter face their greatest challenges yet-their planes are upended, the Murk are on the verge of breaking through from Animus, and the Lumen are vastly outnumbered.
