Guideposts

This is the kind of magazine both Catholics and Protestants can both love. It is great gift for your friend who attends the church across the street from yours.

Short vignettes and more involved profiles color this magazine in much the same way a Reader's Digest might, except with a clear spiritual flavor.

It is ecumenical yet uncompromising: I fully recommend "Guideposts." You won't be disappointed.

Best Magazine Ever   May 1, 2004

My great-grandmother bought subscriptions to Guideposts for all of her grandchildren year after year. I grew up eagerly reading the stories every month since I learned to read in grade school. When my sister and I married and moved out, my mom continued the tradition by paying for our subscriptions every year. After I read each issue, I pass it along to my girlfriend, who then passes it to her neighbor. My husband and I buy subscriptions every year for our seven adult nieces and nephews, as well as for several friends. These stories never fail to put me in a better mood. Whenever I'm feeling down or I can't sleep, I pick up a Guideposts. Usually, I can't put it down until I've read the whole issue. The stories are all from real, normal, everyday people. They get my mind off of myself, remind me of God's faithfulness, and put life in proper perspective. This is the only magazine of which I can honestly say you will not be disappointed. It is worth the price, many times over. Everyone with whom I've shared it has grown to love it, too. I feel that it's the best gift I can give someone I care about.


Cheaper on guideposts.com   June 16, 2008

I love this magazine, but it is cheaper on the Guideposts website. It's only 9.97 plus .97 cents for shipping for twelve issues. On here, it's 16.97 for one year. In fact, on their website, you can get TWO years for 17.97 there...just one dollar more. Save yourself some money and don't deal with Amazon on this one!!!


Ruined by Offers   October 16, 2003

I agree with the other person who stated that he had to stop subscribing to this mag because of all the offers received. Ever since Norman Vincent Pearle who originally created this magazine passed away they started to bombarde people with offers to spend more money all the time and it gets riduculous! I always loved the magazine with the true stories,and would resubscribe but had to stop for the same reason and it's a shame.
