From the team at Not Just Sundays.
We Compared 5 Christian Conversation
Card Games (Including Ours)
We looked at four things across every deck: structure (is depth designed or random), ease of use (can someone run it with no prep), design (would you leave it out), and repeatability (is there enough here for a group that meets weekly).
We've played all six. We built ours because of what the other five don't do, so read this knowing that.
Not Just Sundays makes one of the products on this list. We've ranked ours first and told you plainly where it falls short. We earn nothing from links to the other five.
For Groups That Want Depth
Not just Sundays
$34.00
What it is: A 165-card conversation game structured in three escalating levels: laughter, honesty, encounter.
What we liked: Depth is designed rather than shuffled, so a heavy question never lands in a cold room. Laughter is treated as part of the point instead of throat clearing, which is why groups tend to cross into serious territory without noticing.
Where it falls short: One edition and no expansion yet, so a weekly group runs out in about four months. It's also the priciest deck here, and the third level is heavy enough that a brand new group shouldn't be left alone with it.
Best for: Small group leaders, young adult gatherings, families who want faith conversations that don't feel scheduled.
For Mixed Groups
Talking Point Cards Christian Edition
$39.95
What it is: A 200-card deck written by M.Div and communication professionals with over ten years of ministry and counseling experience, in four color-coded categories with scripture references.
What we liked: You can feel the counseling background in the construction. It's deliberately non-political and built as open-ended starters rather than a doctrinal test, so it genuinely works from young children to grandparents.
Where it falls short: Safety is also the ceiling, and it rarely produces the moment where someone says something they hadn't planned to. The color-coded system means depth is random rather than designed, which flattens the arc of a session.
Best for: Multigenerational gatherings spanning decades, and cross-denominational groups where the priority is that nobody feels cornered. This is the safer table if your group spans four generations.
For Theological Debate
Kulture Games Christian Culture
$15.99
What it is: A 103-card non-competitive deck across four categories: Icebreakers, Hot Topics, Interpretations, and Stories, with 10% of net proceeds going to educational and community development initiatives in underserved African communities.
What we liked: Hot Topics is strong writing that doesn't pretend the hard parts of faith aren't there, which tracks with the creator's wilderness season behind the game. Interpretations gives people with different theological backgrounds a structured way to disagree without it turning personal.
Where it falls short: Those categories generate discussion rather than disclosure, so a group can spend ninety good minutes and learn nothing personal about each other. Several cards also assume theological vocabulary that leaves younger players out.
Best for: Groups that genuinely enjoy theological debate, and rooms where the goal is understanding a topic rather than each other.
For Couples
Rethink!
$14.99
What it is: A 95-card conversation starter deck built specifically for Christian couples at $19.95, not designed for group play.
What we liked: The faith integration is more natural here than anywhere else on this list, because it's written for two believers building a life together. The questions assume shared history, which lets them go places a group deck can't.
Where it falls short: It doesn't stretch to groups and isn't trying to, which is the only reason it sits here. Even for couples it front-loads intimacy with no warm-up tier, which is rough for anyone in year one.
Best for: Date nights, marriage check-ins, and premarital counseling. Not small groups, families, or youth.
For Laughs
Cards Christians Like
$39.99
What it is: A church-culture party game with 500 white cards and 100 blue cards at $24.99. Humor-first, not a conversation deck.
What we liked: It's genuinely funny, and the church-culture observations land hard for anyone who grew up in it. At 600 cards it has more replay value than anything else here by a wide margin.
Where it falls short: It's a party game, so it rewards the funniest answer over the honest one, and once a group learns that it can't go anywhere else. It ends up on lists like this because buyers find it while searching for a conversation deck, not because it is one.
Best for: Church youth nights and staff parties where the goal is volume of laughter, not connection.
Buyer's Guide
What to look for
whichever one you pick
Every deck on this list is fine at what it's built for. The problem is that they're built for different things, and the packaging rarely says which.
Here's what actually separates them once the box is open.
which deck is right for you?
If your group skews younger and explicitly discipleship-focused, buy Unveil. If it spans four generations and three denominations, buy Talking Point. If you want a room to move from laughter into honesty without anyone having to manage the pacing, that's the one we built.
P.S. We'd rather you buy the right deck than ours.
Most of the time those are the same thing, but not always.

Structure over volume.
Card count misleads here. The 600-card deck is the shallowest on this list and the 165-card deck is the deepest, because a hundred questions in the right order beat six hundred in no order.
Sorted by depth, not by topic.
Most decks use color-coded topic categories, which makes depth random. Someone will eventually draw the heaviest card on turn one.
No facilitator required.
If a deck needs a skilled leader, it only works for groups that already have one. Hand the box to the quietest person present and see what happens.
Question quality, not category count.
If the samples read like a worksheet, they'll play like one.
Design you'll actually leave out.
Decks that live on a coffee table get played again. Decks that go in a closet don't.
