Quote: Why I Journal

This sweet quote comes from Dave Jacobs, a church planter and coach who has recently started a really nice web resource and brief email at smallchurchpastor.com

“I practice journaling because I believe in meditation. I practice meditation because I believe in prayer. I practice prayer because I believe in God. Spiritual journaling is not the same as keeping a diary. Journaling is a form of meditation. Meditation is a form of prayer. Meditation, prayer, and journaling help us recognize what the Father is doing with us. They are a holy trinity for finding God.”

If you’re into  church, church leadership, small churches, church planting, spiritual formation or contemplative prayer, go check out Dave’s website and also sign up for the emails.  It’s the only email distribution I actually make time to go look at when it comes in, rather than filtering into a folder and looking at it “someday”.
