Hi! It's Tuesday again--already!-- and time for another Bible art journaling project. The challenge: In the Rebekah Jones Original Bible Art Journaling Challenges that I’ve been getting, Week 7 focused on a verse from 1 John that I’ve always struggled with: 1 John 4:18: “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out… Continue reading Casting out Fear #BibleJournaling
The Meditation About six weeks go I signed up for Rebekah R. Jones’ Bible journaling instructional videos. A few days ago Lesson 4 in the Deeper Still series (2017) arrived by email. This tutorial is a meditation and art journal project on the book of Job. Rebekah is uniquely positioned to hold forth on Job… Continue reading #BibleJournaling about Job
One of my favorite psalms is 104. It’s full of pictures—God laying the “beams of His upper chambers in the waters,” chariot clouds, angels that appear as “a flame of fire,” mountains, valleys, beasts, trees, birds… I wanted to do an art journal entry, but where to start? I decided to focus on the latter… Continue reading Creative God #BibleJournaling

The backstory: David wanted to move the Ark of the Covenant from someone’s house to Jerusalem, the centre… Continue reading Presence Blessing #BibleJournaling

In a Bible Journal instruction email I get regularly, Rebekah R. Jones challenged us to journal about this chapter. She demonstrated what… Continue reading IS IT KIND? #BibleJournaling
I’ve found several Bible verses to go along with my 2017 word LISTEN. One is Zephaniah 3:17: “The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.” Isn’t that beautiful? I had… Continue reading Surrounded by songs #BibleJournaling
For the last little while things have been quiet on this blog as I haven’t been reading and reviewing as many books as I used to. However, the discovery of a new “art”—Bible journaling—will be changing that. A little over a month ago I received, for the purpose of review, The Complete Guide to Bible… Continue reading A new focus—Bible Journaling
