Hey fam! This was a spontaneous raw video for me, but I just really wanted to have some unedited chatty time with you all to discuss my faith journey and this new tool I plan on using to document it: the Growth Roots Co Growth Book! I hope you enjoy it and I really do want your input and feedback on more faith video topics.

Some sweet person emailed me to go check out your awesome channel because you did a video on our Growth Book and I just can't even tell you how grateful we are. I am so blown away by God's goodness in all of this. I'm going to message you separately but just wanted to say thank you so much! I am beyond grateful.

Yes 100% would love to see more content like this from you. I had forgotten that I found you from your War binder! I am into junk journaling so I obviously am just always intrigued by your TN documenting, then you always shared your faith so openly so I enjoyed when you would post what books you were listening to or reading at times etc. (I’m Jenny Gray) Lol I just recently changed my name on here to hold the Jens Junk spot JIC I get up the nerve to further my thrifty finds and newly made junk journal / prayer journal sales further than my Jens Junk Facebook page!! Lol Anyway, I saw ALI holding that book when she posted a video last night and I was like hmm.... haha it’s beautiful!!! I love the green with specks of orange! While I’ve not quite caught on to the “bullet” journal concept yet, I would love to learn, and even if not that, even at 42, it’s always interesting to see how different people dig and study in the word. When we think we’ve arrived to where we should be then we need to begin again because we will never be to that place! No one is above learning from the right person... you just do what God is calling you to do and it just means you’re doing it right if others are putting you down for it. My daughter has just moved out and starting her JR year of college at four year and she’s started a Christian blog and I have told her be prepared.. it usually is a battle when we walk in our calling but it’s a battle well worth fighting and always remember it’s not really with the people anyway! 😉❤️

Thanks so much Jen! I hope you will branch out into the youtube community; we need more friendly, genuine souls like yours! That's wonderful that your daughter has started a blog. You are so right about the enemy trying to tear us down hardest when we're on the right path and becoming more like Him. Thank you for spreading such positivity in our community

Thank you so much for going through the process of the growth roots book. I am new to the journaling life . I love this company and just bought my growth roots journal. Your video really explained it and gave me so many ideas for how I can use it. Don't let the negative comments bring you down. Just remember that when you get negative comments you are making a stand for the kingdom of God and Satan doesn't like it. Just keep being your sweet self and show those sad Christians that life with Jesus gives you unspeakable joy even when people are coming against you! Blessings

I definitely would love to see more content like this. Always stay true to the person God created you to be. Revelation, Acts and Romans are 3 books I find myself studying the most. I always get a new message for what is going on in my life. I was taught by my grandparents to pray for those who have nothing nice to say. It usually means that they have had a bad day or that they have been taught that their way is the only way. Look forward to seeing more content like this and I will be praying for you. You never know who you will reach just by sharing.

I love that you are trying to be more vocal with your faith. My husband and I know all too well how condescending the Christian community can be. We have been working on creating a community youth group regardless of denomination and surprisingly our biggest roadblock has been local church based youth pastors.

@christinebell8980 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks. Very helpful. I am on a journey now to find a better system of documenting my faith, so this was very timely for me. I can't imagine how it must be like putting yourself out there on the internet even in the faith community. Scary. The hardest hits I have taken in life have come from other Christians. Sad. They almost derailed me as a young Christian, but for the Lord's loving reminder to "fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith" Heb 12:2. Blessings.

Thank you for your willingness to share your heart on your faith journey. I have been a Christian for a really long time and my journey is filled with many starts and stops and beginning again. I just this week began a new system for daily scripture journaling which I hope will be a good fit for my newly retired life. I loved the Women if the Word book which was very helpful to Bible study. I have also done several bible studies led by Jen Wilkin which were so eye opening. I love that you are meeting regularly with a friend for Bible study. A friend and I have been doing that together for over 20 years and it has been such a blessing in my spiritual growth. The gospel of John has been instrumental in my growing love for Jesus and John 15:5 about abiding in him is my life verse. Stay hungry for him - pray for him to create that hunger within. He will not fail to answer! I look forward to future videos about your faith journey!! I’ll be praying for you.

John 15:5 has been my verse as well, Diana. It's foundational to EVERYTHING. Thanks so much for this beautiful comment.

I am beginning the process of premarital counseling with my significant other at church and our pastor is really going to strengthen mine and my significant other's relationships in each other but also with and through God.

I looooove this!! I definitely need to get one now 😁😃😁😃 I look forward to seeing how it works for you! I've been reading the Gospels chronologically this year and it's been really good! The next chunk of scripture I'd personally like to tackle is the first 5 of the Old Testament. They're so foundational to the rest of the Bible and my knowledge of them as a whole is super spotty! The illuminated Bible is gorgeous!! I hope you love it! I don't have one but it's on my someday list 😁 Thank you so much for sharing and for your honesty and transparency 🤗 Oh and I'm the exact same way about guided journals - a little structure and guidance is good (like this journal) but I don't like daily prompt questions, etc.

Especially sermon notes; most of the time I can get my entire session of notes on that one page. And it's so nice and thin that it honestly still feels pretty compact to me. Hope that helps! It's truly such a high quality journal.
