This collection will save you time and tears and I hope will help get you started creating your own treasure you'll come back to time and time again when your heart needs to be reminded of truth.

Have you ever looked at the beautiful pieces of fancy artwork pictured in other women’s Bible pages on Pinterest boards and concluded that Bible journaling isn’t for you because you don’t have a journaling Bible and can’t even draw a stick figure? I’ve got good news! You don’t have to. Long before I co-authored “The Complete Guide to Bible Journaling”, I started out micro-journaling in my regular Bible without wide margins.
Micro journaling is simply taking short notes and/or making small doodles in the available space in your Bible so that you can keep...

Do you desperately want to have an intimate relationship with Jesus but you don’t know how to get there? Have you ever wondered why you are overwhelmed with the circumstances in your life while other people seem to authentically trust God? Do you wish you could live like that? If you’re like me, you’re constantly bombarded with distractions and demands that can keep you from taking the time to read His Word and talk to Him in prayer.

Whether you’ve already decided you want a journaling Bible or you're just wondering what a journaling Bible is, you've come to the right place.
Before we jump into all the details, let me just point out that a journaling Bible is just like a regular Bible in the text, but it also has wide margins on the sides so that you have place for note taking and artwork. It’s a great place to write down what you’re learning and keep a record of the time you spend with Jesus. It has been life-changing for me and I hope it is for you too.
Let me preface this article by saying a journaling Bible with wide margins is nice, but...
Have you seen beautiful artwork in people’s Bibles online and wished you could do it too? Bible Journaling is a satisfying way to engage with God’s Word in a creative way. There are endless lessons to be learned and recorded so that you can come back to them at a later date and recall the truths God has taught you. This process of recording your faith journey is priceless, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. You don’t need a big stash of supplies in order to create a beautiful treasure of memories to highlight the time you spend with Jesus.
If you don't already have a journaling Bible, and your thinking about purchasing one, you might want to check out this Facebook Live where I talked about how to pick out a journaling Bible. You can find a good one for $25-$35, but if that’s not in your budget right now, you can absolutely get started with things you already have around the house.

Have you been toying with the idea of journaling about your journey with Jesus but don’t know where to start? Todays tutorial is just one way to add artwork to your Bible, especially if you don’t have one with wide margins.
If you have a journaling Bible with wide margins, you could do your artwork there, or even in a separate art journal. There isn’t a right or wrong way to do it, you can simply get started with what you already have on hand.
If you don’t have a journaling Bible with margins, you can jump right in with any Bible you already have by doing your art on a piece of paper or vellum, tracing paper or even deli paper that is later inserted into your Bible. The advantage to trying new techniques on a separate piece of paper is that you can feel free to try new things without worrying that it might not turn out how you like it. If you like how it turns out, you can add it as a “tip-in” (taped to the...
