Yuletide Gifts for the Religious Adult
By Jeremy White
As Christmas approaches and we begin procuring gifts for family and friends,
it's sometimes difficult to know exactly what to give certain individuals.
Spiritually inclined adults are often a challenge because you want to evoke in
them their spirited passion for the true meaning of Christmas without over
commercializing the sacred holiday.
Rest assured, however, that the perfect gift does exist. Here, we offer
several for your consideration.
Inscribed Bibles - This is a no brainer. A Bible makes a great Christmas gift
for any Christian, especially when the holy book is inscribed with the
recipient's name!
Inspirational Books - Old and New Testaments aside, a bevy of inspirational,
motivational and interpretational books exist. Whether guiding the reader to
reach new moral heights or exploring the historical facts of biblical times,
these gifts are sure to pique interest.
Paintings - From a portrait of Jesus to a Thomas Kinkade print, artwork
teeming with spirituality often has a place in the homes of the religiously
inclined. If your recipient is into Thomas Kinkade, you don't have to spend
thousands on a canvas. Inexpensive prints as well as ancillary items such as
lamps, plates, etc. are available featuring the artwork of "The Painter of
Light."
Cross Pendants - The most enduring symbol of the Christian religion is the
cross. While a crucifix is a great gift for many, a more subtle cross pendant
may be more ideal. Whether penned to a blouse or worn on a necklace, these allow
their bearers to keep the meaning of the cross close to their hearts at all
times.
Religious Movies - From "The 10 Commandments" to "Passion of the Christ," a
movie depicting biblical events is always a hit.
Christian Music - Today's Christian music scene is more diverse than ever.
Sure, traditional hymns are widely available. But Christian musicians now
embrace all genres, including rap and rock. If you know your recipient's musical
tastes, there's likely a Christian group that will fill their listening
needs.
Charitable Contribution - The Christmas season is about many things. Chief
among them are the values of charity, benevolence and compassion. Organizations
from the Salvation Army to the International Red Cross do good work with the
money gifted to them. If that hard-to-buy-for adult has everything, give them
another type of gift: make a charitable contribution in their name. That's a
gift the both of you can feel good about! About the Author Brought to you by Imaginary Greetings, a regular contributor of valuable family oriented articles.
