I never consider myself to be one who journals my days or thoughts. But, this is the first time in my life that I’ve taken an interest in doing these exercises while tapping into my faith. With Faith and Feelings, I get to go at my own pace when I feel like it, and that totally changes the game for me. I encourage you to pick up a copy to begin your own journey.

Sometimes we get caught up in daily life and don’t reflect and process our feelings and grief. These prompts and this journal have allowed me to take a moment t a process my feelings reflect and take away those feelings and use them for personal growth and self awareness. -

“A reflection of quiet times in a tangible way
I bought this journal just before the passing of a dear friend, and I now write my thoughts and memories of our friendship in this journal. As I use the various scriptures verses to guide me through my writing I find peace, joy and even laughter in expressing my thoughts and feelings. This journal reflects my quiet time in a tangible way.

Understanding Grief and It’s Impact
Grief is a natural response to loss and life’s transitions. Its effects can ripple through generations, sometimes disrupting emotional cycles if left unaddressed.
Everyone grieves differently—there’s no right or wrong way. Compassion and empathy are vital, both for ourselves and others, as we navigate healing. By respecting each person's process, we can break harmful cycles and foster growth, love, and understanding through even the most difficult losses.
