During the Easter season, Tyndale partnered with Faith & Art Shop at Logos Bookstore in Kent, OH, to offer a 40-day Inspire<\/em> Bible-journaling Lenten experience. Either instead of or in addition to giving up something for Lent, we reflected on all we have been given through Christ\u2019s sacrifice! We focused on one Scripture passage each day, along with one key word from the New Living Translation text for each day\u2019s passage. We also colored and meditated on Scripture line-art illustrations from various Inspire <\/em>Bibles for the seven Sundays throughout Lent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am so happy that we could partner with Tyndale on this Bible-journaling project for Lent. The people who joined in appreciated having a word and verse to focus on each day. It encouraged them and us!\u201d said Ann Kardos of Faith & Art Shop. Ann and her mom, Becky Gorczyca of Logos, are well-known in the Bible-journaling community for curating an amazing collection of journaling Bibles and creative supplies at Logos Bookstore in Kent and in their beautiful booths at scrapbooking events to inspire creativity in their customers. If you\u2019re ever in Kent, OH, or at an event they\u2019re exhibiting at, stop by and say hi to Ann, Becky, Bridgett Brainard, and the rest of their team at the shows! Bridgett teaches their workshops and helps people get started with Bible journaling at the make and take section of the booth. Follow Ann @faithandartshop for deals and inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ann also invited local podcasters Len and Sara of Start Your Day Positive<\/em> podcast to be part of the experience. Each day, Len and Sara shared the word of the day on their podcast along with some reflections. You can connect with them on Instagram @startyourdaypositive_podcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mai of @mai_faith.in.jesus on Instagram is a lover of Bible journaling & everything Scripture. She posted every day throughout the journey and said, \u201cI have had a wonderful time delighting in the Lord and in his Word. Psalm 1 tells us that if we want to live a blessed life, we need to delight in the law of the Lord and meditate on it day and night. Bible journaling is a wonderfully creative way to enter into God\u2019s presence, to worship him through delighting in his Word, and be transformed through its power as we meditate on his truth. If you are looking for a simple way to grow your faith while being intentionally in God\u2019s Word, I recommend Bible journaling. It\u2019s simple and effective enough for the new believer looking to know more about God and the Bible, yet it\u2019s powerful for the faithful believer to really dig deep.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vivi of @tallercreativorose on Instagram said, \u201cIt was an intentional time of reflection on the Word of God. Every day and every verse of study took us to see Jesus and learn more about his sacrifice on the cross. Being able to enjoy the Scripture with art, between papers and stickers or the illustrations from Inspire Bibles, allowed me to enjoy my relationship with God. These 40 days of Lent were a great blessing, thank you for this activity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
