Clearly Christian Readathon

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 25 #ClearlyChristianBooks in 2025. Select books that reflect Philippians 4:8 and Galatians 5:22-23. If you don't have 25 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 HopeChristian Books and Coffee, and me in this reading adventure for 2025!

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 😄

Review: Someone to Trust - Laurel Ridge #1

This is such a sweet story that starts off with quite the embarrassing encounter. From there, it can only go up, right? That's the case with Megan in  Someone to Trust by Lesa Henderson , the first in the Laurel Ridge series depicting a small town that acts as a refuge for visitors. Book Synopsis Megan McCormick doesn't leave Atlanta looking for love. Far from it. She runs to the mountain town of Laurel Crest to flee from her past and a broken heart.

Tired of fast-paced city life, Lee is considering a permanent move to the mountains. His run-in with Megan has him believing he's in Laurel Crest for more than a partnership in an animal hospital.

Review: Singing Through Fire

I actually didn't know if I would be able to read this book in time for its release but from the moment I started, I couldn't help but keep on going until I knew the full story. Singing Through Fire by Lara Silverman is not only a captivating memoir, but it is so worshipful that I couldn't help but pray along as I read her story. If you're interested in this book before release date, you can visit Lara's form to receive the book order link on August 26, 2025. Many thanks to the author for providing me with a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis What if you fall in love on the brink of death? Singing Through Fire invites readers into the Job-like true story of a young woman who loses everything—and dares to ask why a good God allows it. When Stanford Law graduate Lara Palanjian collapses on her dream job, she never imagines it will lead to four years bedridden—or to the love of her life. Enter Matthew Silverman: a witty, wise, and...
