Why Gospel Fun?
We’re passionate about helping you strengthen your family’s testimonies through gospel fun! Why? Life is busy, kids complain, and things get hard. Gospel Fun helps! It reminds us that what’s most important in life is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Gospel Fun helps you build connections. Connections with those you are engaging with, connections with the gospel principles you include, and connections with heaven. Something beautiful happens when you use fun as a learning tool:
Increased memory! Your focus and ability to remember things increases when you are having fun. That’s a scientific fact. You create memories as you play together as well as allow knowledge about the gospel to become more deeply planted in the brain.
Positive emotions increase and negative ones decrease. Stress, anxiety, worry, and depression are proven to decrease when you are having fun which allows positive emotions such as happiness and optimism to increase. Your whole outlook on life is better after you engage in fun. Don't we all need that, especially now? And because we have expelled darkness and welcomed more light in, we become more open to the promptings of the Holy Ghost.
Participation improves. Fun creates a safe space allowing more people to take the risk of participating and asking questions. When you are doing an activity centered on the gospel, that means those essential gospel conversations that we desperately want to happen in our families occur! Your children will start asking those questions they have been holding on to. And the more you talk about the gospel, the easier it gets!
New perspectives. As you engage with gospel teachings in new ways, you start to make new connections. Something that seems like a foreign concept before suddenly becomes clear. You start to see how gospel principles actually matter and apply to your life. It's amazing the eye-opening moments that can occur when you are simply having fun!
And that's just the tip of the iceberg! You can see why it’s our passion. Go ahead, have some fun and enjoy those simple yet essential conversations.
We started creating Gospel Fun to teach our own kids important gospel truths, help them know the stories and people in the scriptures better, and show them that the gospel is pretty amazing.
Gospel Games
Gospel Games are a great place to start! Gospel Games simply incorporate gospel words into the fun. Whether it’s guessing animals in the scriptures (like with Shout Out) or drawing a gospel word from the scriptures (like with Eyes to See), these games are simple to play and loads of fun. It’s a great way to build knowledge of gospel words and a basic understanding of scripture stories. Often these games provide great opportunities for gospel conversations but those conversations are completely up to you.
Take it one step further with our Gospel Fun Kits- longer activities that also include gospel discussion questions and study resources.

About the Individuals Behind the Scenes
I’m Camille. When I say “we” I usually mean “me, myself, and I” or “my family and I.” I have one great husband and five amazing children but only a few at home now. Through the years and even now they help me edit, test out all my games and coloring pages, take photos, bounce off ideas, and just enjoy it all too. Often, they are the reason I created the coloring page, game, printable, etc. then I share it with you.
We live in the beautiful city of Colorado Springs, Colorado. If you’re a local, you can always come and pick up your orders instead or reach out and let’s get together for some fun. I occasionally do activities and classes too.
We strive to find the balance between providing great free resources while also selling items in our Market. Thanks so much for supporting us! Be sure to follow us on our social media channels or subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
