Family Christian Review + giveaway

Family Christian is a Christian retail store. They sell pretty much everything you could want: books, CDs, DVDs, Bibles, music, clothes, jewelry, decorations.... like I said, everything.

One of the items we buy most frequently at Family Christian is Adventures In Odyssey albums. We are huge AIO fans and they carry a large selection. I also really like the Pass-It-On message cards. They are probably the cheapest item sold there, but I know that when I receive one, it can really make my day. They're very encouraging and uplifting.

My youth group purchased a journaling Bible for one of our youth leaders who is getting married. Family Christian offers imprinting on all kinds of products and we got the couple's names imprinted on the Bible. It looked great! They do it right there in the store while you keep shopping, so it's quick and easy. 

Maybe the best thing about Family Christian is their heart for others. They help orphans get sponsors, they help provide clean water, and they donate money to all kinds of charities. It's wonderful to know that your money is going to help people who desperately need it. Those are the kinds of businesses I like to patronize.

Right now, Family Christian is having a Buy One, Get One 50% Off sale on ALL Books, Movies and Music for the whole family! Shoppers can mix and match products to get the deal, which means you don’t need to shop within the same department. The sale is going on now through August 25, so visit your local store today or shop online at familychristian.com.

Product Recommendations (These are from Family Christian and I do not necessarily recommend all of them. That said, I'm sure none of them are bad. They just might not be something I would choose myself.)
