Guideposts is a Christian ministry sharing stories and experiences that inspire your walk with God and spread His comfort to others.

For more than 80 years, Guideposts has helped people discover the hope that only God provides. What began as a single magazine founded by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale and Ruth Stafford Peale in 1945 has grown into a ministry that meets people wherever they are with encouragement and prayer.

Through books, products, programs and more, we annually help 6.5 million people find strength in Christ and comfort in connection. Our long history of outreach partnership has made us a vital source of inspiration for veterans, caregivers, people in recovery, and more. We have a bold vision to reach 17 million people (5% of the U.S. population) by 2031. Together with our customers, outreach partners, and donors, we can make a positive change in the world— one story, one prayer, one life at a time.

I look forward to an new and inspiring story night throughout the year. It's been a tradition for many years for me, one I still love! Last year I went with the digital version for the first time and loved that I always have my Daily Guideposts with me wherever I go without taking the more bulky book. 2021 is already purchased, loaded and ready to inspire me :)

I love Guideposts & I love starting my day with a devotional but it just didn't come together in this for me. I have a copy of Joyce Meyer's Starting Your Day Right & would be reading that but haven't found it since moving...missing it.

As usual, the collection of stories about faith, friendship, and family are inspiring. Regardless of where you are in your life you will find that others have probably been there and offer their viewpoints and solutions.

I like practical stories of faith. Guideposts is like a community of friends-I read from many of the same authors each year. Through these devos, I see how God works in a multitude of ways, so it opens my eyes to see God in my life. I also get some wisdom too in approaching situations in my life.

Helps me get through the day

I read the daily devotion and the one from the day before. It helps me not start my day in anger and reinforces what my purpose is.

Thank you,

Reading Daily Guideposts is a thoughtful way to begin the day. It allows me to take pause and reflect before delving into the day's activities, challenges, and obligations. It also encourages me to practice gratitude each day.
