Are Some Goals More Spiritual than Others?

April 2, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

We tend to think certain goals are more spiritual than others. Breaking free from a porn habit, for example, is a spiritual goal. Breaking free from an eating-too-much habit is a non-spiritual goal. Having a quiet time is a spiritual goal. Following a to-do list is a non-spiritual goal. If we look at Christianity from […]

Guest Truth Journal

March 27, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Note: This is a guest post by a young friend of mine who has been truth journaling for several years. Be sure to read all of her thoughts down the left side of her truth journal chart. I wrote this in the cafeteria my freshman year in college – on a piece of scrap paper […]

Truth Journaling: The List Method

March 27, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Are you a Christian who likes to journal? Truth journaling is a way to bring the truth of the Bible into whatever life situation you're going through. It's a way to talk to God and see life from His perspective. We'll talk about how to start with truth journaling in this blog post.

Today I’d like to show you another way to truth journal. It’s called the list method. Instead of writing out your thoughts, you begin by asking yourself a question: What am I believing that’s making me not want to work on my goal? Or what am I believing that’s making me want to do my […]

Truth Journaling

March 20, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Today I want to dive into our first renewing of the mind tool. It’s called truth journaling, and many of you are already familiar with this tool from my Bible Study Freedom from Emotional Eating. Truth journaling is a practice that sprang out of a little self-improvement project I started ten years ago. I was […]

Refining Your Goal

March 18, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Hi everyone, I’m back from a week of camping and hiking with my family (like my hair after  five days without a shower?) and ready to get started on my new renewing of the mind project. Here it is: Make a daily list and renew my mind every time I don’t feel like doing the […]

Gathering Your Tools

March 10, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Sorry about the constant shifting of blogs, everyone. If I can’t figure out how to make Bible study type posts over here, I’ll switch back to blogger – but I may not have time to work on that for awhile. This will be the last post for the next week or so as my college […]

A Renewing of the Mind Project

March 8, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

It looks like I’ll have to keep posting any Bible studies or worksheets over at my other blog until I can figure out how to transfer Word documents directly to WordPress (if it can be figured out!). For today’s post, click here.

The Renovation of the Mind

March 5, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Picture yourself in a dark, old house. There’s puke green carpet all over the floors, cobwebs hanging from the ceilings, dusty old furniture covered with sheets, low ceilings with outdated light fixtures, and everywhere you look it’s dark. Not a drop of light anywhere. You’re standing there with a stack of papers in your hand. […]

A Love Grown Cold: Bible Study

March 1, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

Wouldn’t it be ironic if writing a blog on how to break free from bad habits and sins drove me to drink? In order to avoid that possibility, I’ve decided to post today’s Bible study over at my other blog P.S. If any of you know how to post a chart to WordPress (or leave more […]

A Love Grown Cold

February 27, 2012 By: Barb Raveling

It’s been forty years since I prayed the sinner’s prayer, but I still remember the beauty of the moment. It felt like God was wrapping me up in a blanket of love. I was at a David Wilkerson crusade, down on the stage with a bunch of kids who were emptying their pockets of drug […]
