My Journey with Jesus is a Bible study containing thought-provoking subjects aligned with what is going on in the world by taking ourselves to God's Word (the Bible) to learn how God wants us to manage the seasons of life. Knowing that each season of life and each individual is unique, the living word can mean one thing in a certain season and mean an entirely different thing during another season.
With this in mind, the intent is not for me to dictate how you are supposed to feel or dictate God's instruction for you. The intent is to help bring forth thought-provoking topics for you to pray on, meditate upon God's word, and have daily open conversations with our Heavenly Father. All of which teach us how to manage certain struggles as well as help to see the life stepping-stones God Himself has placed before each of us. I commit to stand beside and with you in prayer; it takes an army of prayer warriors to get us through this world.
As you move through this thought-provoking study, you will see a lot of empty space. This is purposefully designed to provide space for your notes: words, phrases, and/or complete paragraphs that seem to come out of nowhere when studying should be written down. Keeping daily journals when seeking guidance will help you identify where God is leading you. In addition, the Lord blessed me with a poetic ministry throughout my journey. You will see poems sprinkled throughout the study. May this bless, encourage, and grow you as it has me.
"I like how you supported your section topic with verses from scripture. Always great to see what the Word has to say on today's topics."

"I loved your poems and the scriptures that you chose for the "Time to dig in." When I read through it as an inspiration piece for my personal journey through the seasons of life, I really identified with almost all of the content...crazy!! Loved it!"

"I really like your book. My favorite poem in it is 'How Long Has It Been?' Honestly when I read it, I cried. This is exactly how I have been feeling lately. I've felt like something has been missing. I realized I haven't heard God's voice in a while and I know it's because I've stopped talking and reaching for him. Your book is making me rethink the way I am doing things, reminding me that I know God is here for me and that I just need to start praying more and listening to what he has to tell me."
