Joy Unlimited is a Christian bookstore that is now in it's 41st year of business; and while times, people and products have changed, our mission has not. We are still here to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, through the offering of Christian products both for personal growth, as well as for out-reach. Something else that hasn't changed for us is our commitment to our customers - customer service is still our top priority. What you will see on this website is only a very small sampling of what we carry in the store; so if you live, work or are visiting in the DC area, it would definitely be worth your time to stop by and see the store. We are on the corner of University Drive and Main Street, right in the heart of historic downtown Fairfax. If you are driving, we have a large parking lot, or if you prefer public transportation, both the Cue and Metro buses stop right next to the building.

Girls are concerned about their looks, their clothes, their bodies, and relationships at a younger age and in a whole new way than even one generation before them.

The Nicene Creed by Joey Fitzgerald
Every week in worship services around the world hundreds of millions of Protestants, Catholics and Orthodox confess their faith by reciting the Nicene Creed. Now comes the first-ever book to teach children about this most widely accepted statement of the Christian faith. It will help parents, grandparents, and teachers engage 5 to 12 year olds in the marvelous light of God s love for them. The lucid commentary will help children understand "what" we affirm by reciting the Creed, and "why" each of its affirmations is important to the Christian faith. The artwork will introduce children and adults to an ancient Christian style by evoking, but not imitating, the beautiful visual art of iconography. Added features include Why Teach the Creed to Children, and Keywords For Kids to help them grasp that even though some of the language may sound grown-up they can understand it and claim it for their own. The author wrote and illustrated this book for his own children and children everywhere."
