Flowers wilt. Chocolates disappear in a few days (or a few hours). But books are a gift that can last your mum a lifetime. Long after Mother’s Day is over, she’ll continue to be encouraged by the truth in a biblical, Christ-centred book. Give a more lasting “thank you” with any of the titles in our Mother’s Day book collection.
Here are a few of our favourite suggestions to inspire and encourage your mum—or a mother you know among your friends or church community.
Risen Motherhood (Deluxe Edition) by Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler
The gospel is relevant for every aspect and season of motherhood. Whether a mum is struggling with her postpartum body or fretting over school choices, she needs good news more than she needs the perfect strategy or worldly tips. Risen Motherhood applies the gospel to the issues most mothers face. Even if your mum has already read the original book, consider buying this deluxe edition featuring a gorgeous design and three all-new chapters.
Everyday Faithfulness by Glenna Marshall
Whatever season of life we’re in, we need to stay rooted in Jesus through the disciplines of Bible reading, prayer, and church. Help your mum anchor her life in these habits with Everyday Faithfulness. This book will help women pursue faithfulness whether they’re busy, waiting, suffering, or sinning—in every season for the rest of their lives.
ESV Scripture Journals
Give the gift of God’s Word with the ESV Scripture journals—each one contains an entire book of the Bible with a lightly lined blank page opposite each page of text. Treat mum to the full New Testament journal set with stunning artwork from Ruth Chou Simons, or opt for the illuminated set containing each of the Gospels. Browse our full range of ESV Scripture journals for more options.
Devoted: Great Men and Their Godly Moms by Tim Challies
In the trenches of daily responsibilities, our lives can feel frazzled and purposeless. Reading about faithful Christians from history can lift our eyes to gaze upon our God and consider what he’s doing through our ordinary days. In Devoted, mums will find inspiration from the lives of the mothers of influential Christians. They’ll be encouraged in their motherhood: God is using their prayers, tears, teaching, and diaper-changing for eternal purposes.
Bread of Life by Abigail Dodds
For all the mums who are avid bakers—or those who dabbled it in during lockdown—consider the beautiful Bread of Life. Abigail Dodds weaves together step-by-step recipes, gorgeous photos, and enriching devotional reflections on Jesus as our true bread of life. Your mum will enjoy a feast for the soul and the eyes while learning how to make everything from sourdough to croissants.
