Go Make Disciples

Have you ever had a creative piece that you knew just what it was to be, but it still just wouldn’t come together? This Faith+Art Journal page was inspired by Marjolaine Simard’s Dream page, in Encounters in Color, and I started it back then, in June. It activated much thought, and I knew it wasn’t just going to be a page in an art journal. It has a longer story, of course. (That will likely wait until my memoir.) 😄 It brought so much meditation, it took 6 weeks to finally get it done. Oh, what can be sparked by… Continue reading →

Thank you to all of you who recently subscribed here, through the Faith Journaling Summit. I’m so glad and grateful that you’ve joined us. I hope you enjoyed my session, and your Free Gift. (Check your Spam, and other folders, if you didn’t receive it.) And thank you to my other subbies who have been here awhile. I so appreciate you. Artsy Summits and Retreats are so fun, but it’s not a pace most of us can keep up with regularly. Even if you’re at a place in your life where you can pretty much create and study God’s Word… Continue reading →

WIP

We all have creative projects that don’t get finished right away. There are so many reasons that happens. Life gets in the way. We lose our creative motivation. Or we’re pondering; we just don’t know what the next step of that creation is to be. I’d been trucking right along on my makes inspired by Encounters in Colour last month, while also working on other creative projects, and new Courses to offer on this site. But this Work In Progress has had a Pause. I thought I knew exactly where it was going. Then that direction changed. Then I didn’t… Continue reading →

Imagine

Imagine sitting down for your quiet time and feeling excited instead of wondering where to start. Imagine having a few different ideas in your back pocket for days when you feel distracted, stuck, overwhelmed, or just need something a little different. That’s what I love about the Faith Journaling Collective Workshop from Faith Bundles. Twenty women—including me!—. are sharing different ways they process Scripture and connect with God, and I have a feeling you’ll walk away with ideas you can continue using long after the workshop ends. Sometimes all we need is a little fresh perspective. You can join free… Continue reading →

Love & Worship God

Leave a comment

Have you ever had a Bible verse that you know well—you’ve memorized it, meditated on it for decades, and then a word changes in your mind? Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. Deut. 6:5, Matt. 22:37, Mark 12:30, Luke 10:27 I know this verse inside out. It is a key verse for my life. I taught it to all my children. Yet, as I meditated on it to make this Faith+Art journal page, my mind kept saying worship, not love. In fact, I… Continue reading →

Where Faith, Neuroscience, & Creativity Meet

Leave a comment

This neurographic drawing has been sitting on my desk for a week or so. Although I’ve been doing other FaithArt journaling pretty consistently this summer, that evening I just wasn’t drawn to my mixed media projects in process. There were no heavy feelings, or issues to work through. Just a heart that needed something different. So I picked up paper and pen and began drawing neurolines and rounding intersections, while meditating on God’s Word and worshipping Him. I hadn’t done any neurographic drawing in several weeks, not since at the CTPM Retreat in May. But that’s what I was being… Continue reading →

A New Name

By | | , ,
Leave a comment

My mind is still meditating on and expanding my study on names, (based on my previous Bible Journaling page for the Great Shepherd & His sheep.) Thinking about how God calls me by name. How I know and hear His voice and follow it. To go a step deeper, to the name He gives me. John tells us, in Revelation 2:17, that overcomers in Christ have a new name, given by God. “To the one who conquers, I will give … a white stone, and on the stone a new name is inscribed that no one knows except the one… Continue reading →
