Let’s take care of our souls by intentionally creating a physical environment, as well as a spiritual environment, in our homes that brings us closer to God. As a result, we will experience peace and a sense of calmness inside our souls, no matter what we are facing.
- Each week, I will provide for you a practical challenge of something I do in my home that makes it more of a haven. I hope you will take the challenges. They do make a difference!
- Each weekday, we will pause, give thanks, pray and meditate on God’s Word through SOAKing in the daily scripture reading for the day.
- This journal gives you a daily devotional, reflection question and space for journaling your thoughts on the verse of the day.
- There is also space in the journal for your weekly gratitude list and prayer requests.
- Also, you will find 4 videos, one per week (every Monday), that correspond with the scriptures we are studying.
This study begins on Monday, October 20th!
