Bible Art Journaling
2nd Saturday of Month
10am - 11am
This is a creative and prayerful practice that combines Scripture with visual art. In this class, participants reflect on a Bible verse or passage and respond through simple art techniques such as drawing, painting, doodling, coloring and hand lettering. No art experience is needed—just an open heart, a Bible, and a willingness to slow down, listen, and creatively engage with God’s Word.
You are welcome to bring your own supplies. Supplies will be provided to share.

The Power of Art
During this creative session, the act of making and reflecting on visual images can bring clarity to complex feelings, unresolved trauma, or interpersonal struggles. This process not only fosters self-awareness but also supports emotional regulation and personal growth. For those dealing with anxiety, depression, or past wounds, art becomes a safe and nonverbal way to explore their internal world, offering opportunities to reframe perspectives, shift patterns, and build more adaptive responses to life’s challenges. Provides a supportive and safe space for self- discovery, connection and peace.
All supplies provided.
