How to Return Orders or Items at Lifeway

To return items to Lifeway Christian Resources, log into your account at Lifeway Order History to download a pre-filled return form. Pack the unused items securely with the form (or your packing slip), and ship them to the returns department at 535 Maddox-Simpson Parkway, Lebanon, TN 37090.

Return Steps

  • Go to your account order history and select "Return Items" if available, then print the pre-filled PDF form.

  • Alternatively, use the return form on the back of your packing slip.

  • If you lack a packing slip, include a note with your name or church name, Lifeway account number, item list, and return reason.

  • Pack items securely and use a trackable shipping method like UPS or insured Parcel Post (you pay shipping costs unless refused).

  • Ship to:
