About Life Journaling
Join this group for resources and encouragement to establish & maintain the habit of reading & responding to the Bible daily.
Life Journaling consists of a reading plan that takes you through the Bible, and a process that helps you understand what you're reading and apply it to your life. Here's how...
Life Journaling
Pick a particular Scripture verse and use a notebook (your Life Journal) to record and respond to the Scripture verse you’ve chosen using the “S.O.A.P.” method:
S-Scripture: Simply write out the verse in your Life Journal. This answers the question “What does it say?”
O-Observation: Write your observations on the text. Note the context, setting, people, etc. Pretend you’re explaining the verse in context for someone who hasn’t read the chapter. You’re answering the question, “What is it saying?”
A-Application: Now you make application to your life. How does this passage relate to your life and circumstances? Ask yourself questions based on the text. Your goal is to address the question, “What is it saying to me?”
P-Prayer: Now turn the topic into a prayer. Express your faith, make a request, give thanks. Answer the
question, "What do I need to say to God?"
