UPDATE 4 YEARS LATER: I still have my gospel notebook, and from time to time I add to it. (Especially when I am reading through an epistle!) I use it many different ways: When I need encouragement, I read through the “I am” or the “Christ did” sections. When I am in a rut in…
UPDATE 3 YEARS LATER: I’m still off of Instagram and Facebook completely. It was rough at first, but man, it’s been incredibly freeing too. I don’t know the latest happenings with all my friends, and I don’t get the photos and updates and miss that, but it gives me something to talk about with my…
UPDATE 6 YEARS LATER: This is the only short story I have ever printed off and kept. I try to re-read at least once a year (and will be pulling it out today to re-read in the hammock). I love everything about the story and how you and the main character go from feeling hopeless…
UPDATE 6 YEARS LATER: It was fun looking through Rachel’s journal again and seeing what she gained from her time working through the Journal and Doodle through Ephesians Bible study!

UPDATE 8 YEARS LATER: When I originally wrote this blog post, it sat on my blog without much interaction. Then it got picked up by Money Saving Mom and got pretty popular for a while. But through it all, it is still a list that has stood the test of time! Since we’re heading into…
UPDATE: This is one of my most popular posts of all time, written back in 2014. I am still using a Bible journal, though not as much as I was then, but that is just due to defaulting to being unorganized and forgetful more often than not. Seeing this journal and flipping through it again…
After calling a 2021 goals do-over, I’m hoping for a fresh start in my Bullet Journal too.
You know how exciting it is in January when you think about all the things that you could do and how awesome you will finally be in the new year… and then how you realize that you entered into the new year with the same old you… and your goals seem like a crazy person…
