How Can Art Help You Tell Your Story?
Who can make art? Do you need an art degree to make a worthwhile creation? Does your final product need to be “really good” to validate its existence?

Spiritual Autobiography is for Everyone!
You Have What it Takes to Tell Your Story
Can I really write my spiritual autobiography? Do I have what it takes to tell my story? Do people really want to know about my spiritual journey? The answer to these questions is, "Yes, yes, yes!"
You can share your spiritual autobiography. You can tell the story of what God has done in your life and find people who will be excited to hear it! Spiritual autobiography is an invitation to share your God story. It’s also an invitation to receive the God stories of others. As we share our testimonies of God's faithfulness we are reminded that God has always been present on our journey. As we hear someone's spiritual autobiography we remember that God is with all of us as we journey. This act of giving and receiving each other’s God stories is the gift of spiritual autobiography, and it’s a gift made just for you!

Spiritual Autobiography!
Growing, Healing, Creating
and Finding a Voice for Your Story
Art making is not just something kids can do. Why are we so quick to hang a child’s picture on the refrigerator (and ask them all about their reasons for what they made, tell them how beautiful their work is and blissfully enjoy it) yet, as adults, we are terrified to allow ourselves to see our own creations through the same lens?
Everyone has something to say and share and everyone has their own unique way of sharing it. When we come to truly believe this we have new freedom to grow, heal, create and find a voice for our spiritual autobiography. We've recognized that we have an artist within and we tell our story.

How to Start a Personal Journal
Six Easy Steps to Get You Started!
People hold back on keeping a journal because they've gotten the idea that it's not enough if what they write helps them. They feel it has to be "good writing" to be worthwhile. My training and life experience begs to differ; it's about the process NOT the product. And, no one has to see what you've written anyway. Your journal is your own private world. Start one and enjoy the ways a journal can help you change, grow and learn about yourself.

It's A Gift
Your Spiritual Journey is a Gift:
It’s easy to think that we have to do something, or experience something, remarkable to have a reason to share the story of our lives. We have a way of believing that our ordinary lives are just that: ordinary. The value in reaching out is missed in our poor estimation of what we have to offer. We wait for something big to happen to us before we recognize the importance of our journey. We don’t acknowledge the special gift we have to share. It’s the gift of our ordinary lives shared with others.

I Can Break Through
Age 42
The threads don’t have to bind us. We can break through them, but we need a little help. We need someone who can help us stand up and break free. Who can help us remember who we are so that the smallness doesn’t overtake us? I don’t know about you, but I need God to remind me that a spool of thread can’t hold me. I need His logical, anti-ridiculous, thread breaking power. My God is bigger than a spool of thread and His very Spirit dwells within my soul. That means that I have what it takes. I can break through them: the things that keep me unnecessarily bound.
Let God Clean It Out
Age 42
Everything we’ve needed for greater fulfillment, peace and joy is just beyond our reach, though. Unlike a window which we can simply use our hands to lift open, our brains don’t allow such easy access. God is the only one who can reach inside our very selves and clean house. If we invite Him, He will come and open us up, clean us out and get us going in the right direction. We can’t do it alone but we can ask Him to help us. God will clean it out. He’ll change us from the inside out.
