ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

 

L.B. is a hospital chaplain and ministry leader whose passion is to help guide others towards spiritual regeneration and wholeness.

It has been her honor, through writing the Living Soul-Full curriculum, to help build and nurture a holy space for renewal-where mind, body, and soul are restored through God’s grace- and to partner in community with others who desire to live emboldened, Spirit-led lives marked by vulnerability and compassion.

Over more than a decade, LB has edited this guide as it evolved into a trusted 26-week small group curriculum in spiritual formation, integrating biblical teaching, spiritual disciplines, practical reflection and even neuroscience.

She is deeply indebted to all those quoted within Living Soul-Full, whose timeless writings and teachings have, across the centuries, nurtured both our desires and efforts to cultivate a healthy soul within Christianity.

She also carries immense gratitude for every participant, facilitator, and all those whose vision for the “Soul Care” ministry at Mountain Christian Church surpassed her own, investing wholehearted from the very beginning. This curriculum is possible because of the support, feedback, and genuine partnership across her church community.

Book Review: Journey to Discover the Heart of God by The Reverend Debbie Womack

Journey to Discover the Heart of God

Publication Date: April 5, 2024

Page count: 101 pages

Lovely, guided prayer journal to enhance spiritual reflection and understanding. 

Journey To Discover The Heart of God is a lovely, guided prayer journal by The Reverend Debbie Womack, an Episcopal deacon in Lubbock, Texas, and veteran author of educational and religious curricula for schools and church classrooms. With its clean lines, simple imagery and layout, and thoughtful and diverse selections of Bible verses, each page is certain to prompt contemplation, spiritual reflection, understanding, and renewal. 

The journal has a consistent, easy-to-follow layout prefaced by the author’s suggested methods of progressing through the spiritually-themed prayer prompts. There are eight themes: peace, hope, joy, faith, trust, prayer, forgiveness, and love, with approximately ten pages headed by a Bible verse or verses (taken from the New International Version) devoted to each theme. Following each page’s verse or combination of verses is plenty of clean, lined, white space for writing down one’s thoughts on the reading. After the guided prompts, several additional pages are provided for exploring personal prayers, meditations, and thoughts. However, while the author offers options for employing and getting the most out of its use, the journal would be easily customizable or adaptable to individual preferences and needs. 

With its fresh simplicity, ease of use, adaptability, and nice writing spaces begging for your input, I recommend JOURNEY TO DISCOVER THE HEART OF GOD to readers of middle-school age and older who are looking to examine their spirituality and relationship with God and their fellow man.
