Bloom Bible Journaling by Jennifer Miranda
Whats Bible Journaling?
Bible Journaling is a Creative Bible Study.
What you study doesn't change.
Creative Bible Study its your alone time with God studying HIS Word.
The only thing that is different is, that at the end of your study you reflect on what you learned in a creative way and then transfer it to the Journaling Bible.
Lets brake it down a little.
Bible=Gods Word
Journaling=Journal
I remember when I was small I used to have a journal where I would write everything that happened during the day; I would pour my little heart out into that journal.
I see Bible Journaling as reflecting and meditating on Gods word and keeping a journal inside your bible of everything that you are learning and experiencing on your bible journey. You can write your prayers, highlight your favorite part of the reading and even make connection notes.
How can you start Bible Journaling?

Steps to start Bible Journaling:
