The Theology of Home brand was created to “help ordinary families uncover the eternal meaning hidden in the quiet moments of their everyday lives.” Their planner channels the books’ beauty and inspiration while helping to order and organize daily life.
The planner includes liturgical calendar highlights with saint feast days and saints’ quotes. Monthly and weekly layouts include plenty of space for notes, reminders, and events.
The images and excerpts from Theology of Home II in a full-color interior make it distinct from other planners. This planner was thoughtfully designed “to bring more beauty, intentionality, and structure to home life, daily life, and life out in the world.”
7Paper Sunday Planner
Paper Sunday journals and planners are unique in that every page is personalized with Scripture verses. For example, a page might read, “Katie, now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1)”
The goal is to make the word of God in the Bible come alive in a new way. With an array of planners for men and women, you’re sure to find the right thing to help you grow personally and spiritually in 2022.
