“Write down the revelation and make it plain…” — Habakkuk 2:2
In this raw and reflective episode, I invite you into one of the quietest but most powerful spiritual rhythms in the garden: journaling. Not just to track what you’ve planted—but to mark what God is growing in you.
This episode is inspired by Chapter 2 of my ebook, Rooted in Grace. Whether you're a seasoned journal-keeper or someone who’s never written a single garden note, this episode offers gentle encouragement and simple steps to begin.
We’ll explore:
-
Why journaling in the garden becomes a form of prayer
-
How slowing down to write helps you heal and listen
-
Five gentle practices to build a soul-rooted journaling rhythm
-
A personal story from my California garden
-
A simple worship moment with Come Thou Fount
-
A closing journal prompt to carry into your next quiet moment
🎧 Listen & Reflect You don’t have to capture everything. Just capture something. Even the smallest note can become a seed of trust.
📓 Journal Prompt from this episode:
“When have you read something you wrote in the past and felt surprised by how far you’ve come?”
📖 Scripture Focus: Habakkuk 2:2 — “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.”
