About

The first question you might ask is, “What’s so important about journaling?”  Journaling is a valuable tool in helping people see the markers of their own journey with Christ.  That is, what are the unique areas of growth in your life.  Writing can also help us look at things a little differently than we normally would as we write down our ideas and have the opportunity to reflect.

Journaling may also be a form of worship as we respond to how God is speaking and what He is going in our life.

Over the next 28 days from January 4th, it is our desire that we walk through the book of Colossians together as a community of Believers.  There are 40 blank pages before you in the paper journal you were given in the service (if you don’t have one please come by the office and pick one up or you can go a little farther and pick one up at BAM or B&N).

Each journal will look different at the end, but our prayer is that you will be able to look back and see your own conversation with Jesus and how it unfolds.  Take time each day to write your thoughts down on the Scripture that you read here in this blog.  Write a prayer, write a poem, write down an event that was important.  See where the journey takes you.

I will meditate on Your precepts and consider your ways.  I delight in Your decrees; I will not neglect Your word.     -Psalm 119.15-16

    How can I view the archives for each day? I started the journal late, so I am only on Day 4, but cannot seem to find Day 4 or other past days.
