Shining a light in the darkness
If you have children in your life, you want to cultivate wonder and joy in their hearts.
About
Leading with Beauty
In a world full of noise and distraction, you want their imagination to be shaped by beauty so they will be drawn to God who is Beauty itself. You want them to be inspired by virtue and led to holiness. Word on Fire Votive was formed to help you with this mission.
Established in 2022, Votive is the children’s imprint of Word on Fire, the ministry of Bishop Robert Barron. From board books for toddlers to stories for teens, Votive partners with inspired writers and brilliant artists to produce books that will engage and delight.
As our name Votive suggests, we create books as a prayerful offering, like a small candle that shines in the darkness.
