It’s hard sometimes to figure out what to get our girls as they get older. Long gone are the days when we could walk down that Barbie aisle or hit up the American Girl store and be done. Clothes are often a risky proposition and somehow it’s not the same to have our girls open up boxes with gift cards inside. {I do have lists for tweens and for little girls also.}
I love choosing gifts for my almost 20-year-old daughter that will inspire her to continue growing spiritually. I’m always on the hunt for tools I think she might like. And for other items that will point her thoughts back to Jesus in the middle of her daily life.
Best Faith Inspiring Gifts for Girls {Older Teens & Young Adults}
Here’s a list of some things I’ve found that would be great for girls who are in their late teens to early twenties (and maybe even beyond). I hope you’ll find an idea or two for your girl.

Jewelry
The Be the Good necklace is perfect to remind your daughter that how she treats others makes such a huge difference. Or maybe get the BRAVE wear one-share one set from DaySpring so you can both remember to live bravely. And I love this Wow God pewter necklace — a fun little token to help your girl remember how good God has been.
Planners
GeoBurst Agenda Planner is a great way to help your girl keep all her activities and responsibilities organized. This washi tape would be a fun extra to help her decorate her planner. And I especially love this sticker pack from The Happy Planner.
I’ve got a Prayerful Planner for next year and I can’t wait to use it — it might be a good option for your girl as well. Shop through this link and you’ll receive 10% off your order!
Journaling and Devotions
She’ll love Be Still or Fullness of Joy journals from The Daily Grace Co. This fun Dream Your Heart Out devotional journal might also be right up her alley. I also love this pink linen prayer journal — so pretty!
If you want to reminder her about who God says she is, What’s True about You is the perfect book!
Bible Studies
Does she love Bible study? The Daughters of Grace study would be a great way to help her learn more about the women in the Bible. {And hey! Get yourself a copy too and work through it together.}
Or maybe you could get her two copies of this Bible study on friendship written by my dear friend Lisa-Jo. That way she and a friend can learn more together.
The Word Writers series of Bible studies is written by another one of my very precious friends and it is perfect for anyone who feels a little uncertain about how to get started with Bible study. I’d recommend starting with the Philippians study.
Bibles
If you think she would love a new Bible, the She Reads Truth Bible is beautiful. The CSB Study Bible is a great resource, as is the ESV Study Bible. And I can’t forget the (in)Courage Devotional Bible since I was honored to contributed a few devotions to it.
I think this Sermon Notes journal from The Daily Grace Co. would be a great resource to accompany that new Bible. And these erasable pens and erasable gel highlighters are awesome for taking notes and marking favorite passages.
For a journaling Bible, I’d suggest the ESV Single Column or the CSB Notetaking Bible like I got for Casiday for Easter a couple of years ago. And right now Dayspring has A TON of Bible journaling supplies on sale! I’d suggest starting with this set or even these pens. This hand-lettering book would also be a great.
Mugs, Prints, Etc.
Got a coffee or tea lover? I adore this He Is Always Good campfire mug and how about this great reminder that This is HIS year for a fancier option? This gorgeous HOPE mug would be a perfect stocking stuffer. And this one with the adorable succulent drawing might be my favorite. And if she’s more of a water drinker, this Abundant Joy tumbler would be ideal.
Does she need a little spot for her favorite jewelry? This Take Heart trinket dish is perfect. Remind her who she is with this Daughter of the King print.
Does she need a big tote? This LOVE jute bag is perfect! Or how about a super cute lunch bag?
Whew … I think that’s a great start! At least a few ideas to spark your own gift list to encourage your girl to keep growing in her faith!
My 16-year-old really enjoys “Brio” magazine for teen girls (from Focus on the Family)
Oh, that is a great resource! Thank you for adding it to our list!! <3
