Merry Christmas girl!! When I texted on Instagram, for the time I was on that app... I have spiritual warfare too. So like I said. Praise Jesus. The devil is trying trying to...that just means your close to God. "It" don't like it,😆...wtg
Regarding burnout... I used to have a rubber stamp that said: "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." I did some research ions ago on the benefit of being creative and found out some interesting things. The brain uses a different lobe to do art and music, than it does to think, reason, ponder and learn. So getting into an artsy project metaphorically "sweeps" the brain of the cares, giving rest to our other lobes, and helps us rejuvenate enough to face another day of tasks. Thank you for spending your minutes helping build up the Body of Christ. You've been so helpful to me, by just sharing your faith and knowledge of the Word.
This was so needed right now. I am so burnt out and wanting to study, but just can’t even seem to open my Bible. I just feel so overwhelmed by everything. This helps to realize I’m not alone.
Every since my dad retired now he's constantly home all the time and I just don't feel motivated to Bible journal because he's always around me so I never get alone time up until 10pm 2:58
Happy Birthday. Jesus give me grace and endurance this Christmas. As a single mother my number one priority, are my sons. Both of them are autistic so they require a lot from me. God give me strength as I struggle to provide for them. My faith in you is still strong! Even as I struggle to pay rent every month and I struggle to buy groceries for my children, I KEEP FAITH in you LORD. Jesus hear my prayers I’m so overwhelmed and discouraged because I’m also battling lupus and have heart issues. Lord give me strength because I want to give up.
I wish I had the time to delve into Bible studying. I work nights, 7P-7A so it’s a struggle. I’m just starting verse mapping and I love it. Changes things up! Really gets you into the Bible.
I just love your stuff, Faith ❤ And I know what you mean about getting scrappy with stuff! Since I started Bible journaling and getting more crafty with things I told my husband, "you know, I always thought it was solely for aesthetics, but actually I find myself pondering this more deeply because.. .so I need a big note? Is this a big thought? How does this apply? Where am I going to write this?" It actually has taken me deeper in my. . . Digestion of the Word? Haha does that make sense? Like it sticks with me longer. Maybe that fits into the meditative aspect that David talks about it the Psalms, looking at things from all angles. Also, I had a Professor in Bible college who encouraged us to think about and plan our prayers before we prayed them. Not that we always have to do that, but I TOTALLY get you. Sometimes it is really helpful to think about it before you come to Him. ❤️ Again, thanks for the encouragement!
I so appreciate all the love and work you put into your channel to reach us all who are new and/or get stuck or are insecure! It’s a battle strategy in the spiritual area we all need. A thank you to your hubby also
I was so encouraged by this video! I have felt so so so guilty for "using" if you will, crafty things to motivate me. I feel like I'm relying on things to get me excited when God's Word alone should get me excited. Does that make sense? But I do this too and when you said "it was worth fighting for" to make a habit of reading God's Word, that made sense. I have to admit...I saw your "O Holy Night" paper from a Short the other day...recognized the price font 😂 called 3 hobby lobbys in my area and ONE of them had just two left for 50% off! It's also sold out online 😂 I think it's the cutest Christian Christmas paper I've EVER seen! Ok. Now off to Bible study with a hot (reheated) cup of coffee while my kids nap ☺️ thank you!
For me, I had a lot of Bibles and a lot of them weren’t right. I couldn’t stick with one. Right before Christmas, I found my Unicorn Bible. This was the one my list that I wanted in a Bible: soft cover, red letter, double columns with cross references, fantastic study notes, archeological sections, introduction to books. This isn’t the CSB Everyday Study Bible, but the Holman CSB Study Bible. This has gotten me really excited about Bible study again.
Hi Faith, a real nice motivating video. I have saved carefully, and I have bought throughout the year all of studies you have plus the reading plan and videos. I recently had to drop from the top-tier due to finances, that's how hard I've been hit. I just use crayons and colored pencils in my bible. I have a couple good pens as well. I'm not looking for sympathy here. I was wondering if you could do a video how to decorate journals with really cheap things. construction paper, kids' watercolors, markers, crayons (not the twistable kind) I buy things twice a year just before starts and January when school supplies are super cheap. I've come up with some things like leaf rubbings on paper, and different textures, bits of dried flowers. I'd love any suggestions from you or anyone else in the group. God Bless!
Sold!!! I'm signing up for the Reading Plan and the Videos. First I want to finish Boot Camp (which I am completely enjoying). Then I can immerse myself with the Reading Plan. What a great Christmas & birthday present I am getting! 😁
Oh my gosh I really needed this!!!!! Been going through quite an upsetting, stressful time the past couple of months and so my study time is practically non-existant and the burn out/not wanting to Bible study but wanting and NEEDING to Bible study struggle is REAL!! Thank you for the tips on how to get back into it!! Xx
I saw that you live in Texas! We are in Texas as well! I hope you have a wonderful holidays. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. It helps me to give myself grace as well.
Thank you for this video, Faith. Burnout is real. I went from studying about 5-8 hrs a day (Bible and reading Christianity books), but stopped in late September as stress came. I’ve been feeling guilty lately, so I prayed and it helped me feel better, but I still couldn’t study. What I did then was continue reading Mere Christianity by CS Lewis a couple of days ago and I’ve started to come around again, which has lifted my spirits. Good luck everyone!
Yay top 31 and top 172 comments and likes. Love this channel. Best to you and your family. Thanks for making this video. Happy birthday and happy holidays!!!!!!
I do a bible read in a year and love it the one I use is KJV Bible in a Year ( Daily Walk Bible ). Because it gives so much stuff to look at and really think about too. Plus there are thing to answer and study but you do it on your speed if you want .
HELP! I love reading my Bible, but did lapse into a funk about journaling. I started watching your videos and fell into an abyss. You are so precious and I really enjoy watching them. I’ve got to discipline myself to just watch for a short time and then do my studies. You inspire me to be a better journal-er. Thanks a bunch! Be blessed.
God bless you Faith ,,,,great video 👌❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏 will be starting the Bible study tomorrow and look soooooo forward to the videos along with checklists as I study ❤❤ so blessed you created this amongst the others 🙏✝️🙏✝️
Wow....thank you. I so needed this right now. Thank you so much for sharing. As you know, I've been in this spot for a while now. Today, I finally got an irresistible pull to study just one verse in depth...so as not to overwhelm. Thank you for praying.
Hi Faith! Fellow Texas mama here. I purchased your Bible in a year plan and videos for myself for Christmas and couldn't wait to dive in... so I didn't lol. Completed the first 5 days and I'm implementing the BSBC skills I learned. Just wow! Thank you for your work on this! I highly recommend the videos!!
I think my “premium” Bible does for me what your foiling and die cutting do for you. I write in mine and I underline and highlight. But I also appreciate the way it feels and the way it is built to last. I want to pass it down to my nieces, so I’m even writing my testimony in the notes pages. I think different things work for different people.
I am SO grateful for you and this channel. YOU are the equivalent of the metal foil thingy to me 😂 You encourage and inspire me to get back in my Bible. Thank you for being you and vulnerable. I know I’m not alone in my struggles and that means a lot. ❤
I actually loved that you were willing to film with one of your nails missing the polish. It is NOT about perfect, it is about God. When you don't present a perfectly put together "Faith at How to Faith a Life" , you free others from thinking they need to be perfect or that they don't 'measure up'. Keep being you! God is using you for His glory and to be His vessel bringing others into His kingdom. ✝♥
I have both products and they are very helpful. I highly recommend acquiring them to read the bible in depth and getting a full understanding of scripture. It has helped me grow spiritually as well. Thank you, Faith and Joe!
Would love to see a tutorial of the die cuts with the stamps! I love Bible journaling and seeing new fresh ideas to go along with my Bible reading. Do u buy the stamps and die cuts separately or is it a kit? That machine is on my wishlist for 2024! 😊
As you said, it's not a performance! Thanks be to God we do not have to perform to receive our salvation! I feel this same way right now as I have been undertaking a long advent fast. Some days I feel totally burned out, then I remember why I am fasting and it's not a performance but a relationship builder with God.
I back out of indepth Bible study when I need to. I read just to read. I'm writing out the bible by hand. I focus on the Psalms. I have a copy of the bible without chapter and verse numbers which is very nice because I have a much easier time just reading when the verse numbers are not there.
2 weeks ago, my husband lost his right leg in a work accident. After days in hospital, with me not sleeping and barely eating, we're home and I'm trying to juggle work and doing everything at home, and managing his doctor visits, therapy, meds...and feeling guilty for feeling overwhelmed, I mean, HE is the one that's lost his leg! Sadly, my Bible study has been hit-or-miss when I should be in the word more than ever!
Just bring in a small practice. Read YouVersion's Verse of the Day. Write it down. Maybe respond. Maybe don't. (I have to admit to often looking at the whole paragraph & sometimes chapter once I read the one verse. But not every day!)
Hi Faith, could you please do a video on rest-how do you rest after doing all this work or even after Bible Study? Thank you so much for all the work you do. May the Lord continue to bless and strengthen you to continue to edify more of His people!
No, unfortunately that's all through a third party so I just keep them at base cost and don't make profit off them because they are already so expensive.
Girl…. I can literally tell in your video how disappointed you are in yourself for feeling burnt out with Bible Study specifically and how hard it was for you to admit it out loud. I swear a few times I saw your eyes turn red and well up with tears. And as hard as I know this was for you, I want to say thank you for even being real and raw with us because I truly believe that not only helps us grow as a community, but helps us understand better why grace is needed within the community and it helps us appreciate more, I think, the grace that God shows us. Anyway, I have a 12 year old. I know your kids aren’t as old yet, but I’ve been searching for a kids Bible reading plan. It doesn’t have to be a whole Bible reading plan, because let’s be honest, some things in the Bible she isn’t ready for 😳… ya know… as I’m writing this I’m thinking maybe it should be a Matthew-Jude reading plan and then psalms and proverbs. That’s kind of how I encourage new believers because I feel like since we are on the NT side of the cross, it’s easier for us to understand… and once we understand God’s character and plan, the OT is easier to read. Anyway… I’m rambling. I guess I could work on making my own reading plan for her, but was curious if you had any resources or know of a plan already for kids around her age. Thanks! ❤️
I’m pretty new to studying the Bible and am getting ready to change bibles soon since mine is getting really packed, colorful and heartfelt entries and studies. My question is I have received some Christmas money and want to start my Bible study library and would like a suggestion from you on a good beginner book. I use the ESV version and the new year will be trying out the CSB version that was recommended by my pastor. Hopefully you will read this and be able to guide me in a direction that is safe and correct in teaching
Girl, you had me laughing. I really enjoyed this video. So does your twin have a name? I’m also intimidated by the new foil machine. lol. I did end up getting a new Diane so super excited to use in my Bible journaling. I hope one day we get to meet so I can give you a big sister hug and tell you thank you for all that you do. If it weren’t for your videos it wouldn’t have opened the door that I needed to open to get back to the Christian faith. So thank you 😊 ❤ May god bless you and your Family. Have a very merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
Just a few questions. I’m going to start reading and taking notes of the Bible…but I don’t really know where to begin. I’m assuming Genesis. Also is it okay for me to write in the bible for note taking? I would just feel like I’m ruining it
Hi Faith, I'm a Catholic. And I'm looking for an interleaved Bible. RSV, NRSV, or NAB. I can not seem to find one anywhere! Do you have a recommendation for me?
Hi, Faith! I hope you are not feeling so burnt out anymore! I have a question for you. I have finally bought some big, heavy commentaries I'd been craving for years - Spurgeon's and Calvin's commentaries on the Psalms, Champlin's verse by verse commentaries on every book of the Bible, that sort of thing. I'm dying to start them, but I'm also afraid I'll read a couple of pages, find they are too difficult for me and never touch them again. That would be so sad! Any tips for me, please?
Hey Faith I just discovered your videos about a month or so ago and I enjoy them so much. They have really got me thinking about looking into commentaries and studying Bibles. This question is a little off topic but I was wondering if you have ever heard of John Cunningham Geikie he wrote a series called “Hours with the Bible” “The Scriptures in the Light of Modern Discovery and Knowledge” I found volume 4 a few days ago going through some boxes that had belong to my aunt. If you’ve heard of this author I was wanting to know your opinion because you seem to know so much about Bible commentaries. And secondly would you recommend “Life Application Study Bible” it is by Tyndale. I thought you mentioned that name before in your videos. Any way so glad I found your channel 😊
I miss you sooo much. ❤ MJ I tried Instagram yesterday, then deleted acct. I was like getting weird stuff from weirdos...so I deactivated. I need an email to connect, or maybe, I'll just write to you on your p.o.box... If it's the same/in TX still?.... I'm a talker, but homebound. Let's hope. This RUclips user is from RUclips for security reasons ✌️🌼💙
I'm glad you were able to push through and study the scriptures, but sometimes you ... just ... can't. You just don't have the time or the energy or the emotional bandwidth. That's OK. There's no command to study the Bible every day. Honestly, there's not even a command to read the Bible every day. What's most important is to maintain your habit of daily time in the Bible. It's OK to back off a little. You can just read the scriptures if you don't have the energy to study. Maybe you just need to read the next book in the Bible, or maybe you need to revisit a favorite passage. Maybe you need to be reminded of God's love (several Psalms or passages in the gospels are great for that) or that God is bigger than your problems (I like the last couple of chapters of Job or Isaiah 40-45 for that). Maybe you need to be reminded it'll all work out -- the last couple of chapters of Revelation will do that. Maybe you even need to just listen to an audio Bible while you take a walk or sit in your rocking chair. Sometimes it's OK to just eat cereal for dinner. And sometimes it's OK to just let the scriptures wash over you.

Merry Christmas girl!! When I texted on Instagram, for the time I was on that app... I have spiritual warfare too. So like I said. Praise Jesus. The devil is trying trying to...that just means your close to God. "It" don't like it,😆...wtg
Sometimes, when i am not inspired to bible study, I light a candle, watch one of your videos that helps
🥹🥹🥹🥹 this just made my day!
I love your alter ego. I called her “Hope” cuz she’s always hyping you up 😂😂
Regarding burnout...
I used to have a rubber stamp that said: "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
I did some research ions ago on the benefit of being creative and found out some interesting things. The brain uses a different lobe to do art and music, than it does to think, reason, ponder and learn. So getting into an artsy project metaphorically "sweeps" the brain of the cares, giving rest to our other lobes, and helps us rejuvenate enough to face another day of tasks.
Thank you for spending your minutes helping build up the Body of Christ. You've been so helpful to me, by just sharing your faith and knowledge of the Word.
This was so needed right now. I am so burnt out and wanting to study, but just can’t even seem to open my Bible. I just feel so overwhelmed by everything. This helps to realize I’m not alone.
So True Servant John Paul Jackson said ask for more oil
Every since my dad retired now he's constantly home all the time and I just don't feel motivated to Bible journal because he's always around me so I never get alone time up until 10pm 2:58
Happy Birthday. Jesus give me grace and endurance this Christmas. As a single mother my number one priority, are my sons. Both of them are autistic so they require a lot from me.

Even as I struggle to pay rent every month and I struggle to buy groceries for my children, I KEEP FAITH in you LORD. Jesus hear my prayers I’m so overwhelmed and discouraged because I’m also battling lupus and have heart issues. Lord give me strength because I want to give up.
Don't apologize for doing creative arts with your Bible study. God made us this way and you are right, it does help when one is burned out.
Faith, you are so encouraging! Joining your Patreon a couple months ago has been such a blessing!! Thanks for all you do. ❤
Thank you for your honesty! It’s a blessing to learn I am not alone!
I wish I had the time to delve into Bible studying. I work nights, 7P-7A so it’s a struggle. I’m just starting verse mapping and I love it. Changes things up! Really gets you into the Bible.
Patreon here...I absolutely love your Psalms bible studies! I am so appreciative of the work you put into them
I totally get distracted when intentionally praying through many things at a time. Journaling as I pray keeps me focused and directed.
Thank you for your realness, girl! It really puts some things into perspective in my life ❤
My mouth dropped when you called yourself 😂 then the 95 grace days 🤯. WHHHATTTTT!!! Okay 👌🏾! lol thank you for this video! ❤
I love the idea of using the seals.
I just love your stuff, Faith ❤
And I know what you mean about getting scrappy with stuff! Since I started Bible journaling and getting more crafty with things I told my husband, "you know, I always thought it was solely for aesthetics, but actually I find myself pondering this more deeply because.. .so I need a big note? Is this a big thought? How does this apply? Where am I going to write this?" It actually has taken me deeper in my. . . Digestion of the Word? Haha does that make sense? Like it sticks with me longer. Maybe that fits into the meditative aspect that David talks about it the Psalms, looking at things from all angles.
Also, I had a Professor in Bible college who encouraged us to think about and plan our prayers before we prayed them. Not that we always have to do that, but I TOTALLY get you. Sometimes it is really helpful to think about it before you come to Him. ❤️

Thank you very much ‼️ And merry Christmas 2023 🎄💛🎄♥️🎄💙🎄💜🎄🎁🎅🛷⛄❄️🦌💫
Ohh, say hello to your new favorite craft item. I love my foil machine for bible journaling and scrapbooking ☺️
I actually haven’t felt burnt out after I quit Bible journaling my in my journaling Bible, so I got a new Bible.
I was so encouraged by this video! I have felt so so so guilty for "using" if you will, crafty things to motivate me. I feel like I'm relying on things to get me excited when God's Word alone should get me excited. Does that make sense? But I do this too and when you said "it was worth fighting for" to make a habit of reading God's Word, that made sense. I have to admit...I saw your "O Holy Night" paper from a Short the other day...recognized the price font 😂 called 3 hobby lobbys in my area and ONE of them had just two left for 50% off! It's also sold out online 😂 I think it's the cutest Christian Christmas paper I've EVER seen! Ok. Now off to Bible study with a hot (reheated) cup of coffee while my kids nap ☺️ thank you!
❤❤❤
I love this video, so needed. I love having "Suzy Q" pop in with a question
LOVED IT!
For me, I had a lot of Bibles and a lot of them weren’t right. I couldn’t stick with one. Right before Christmas, I found my Unicorn Bible. This was the one my list that I wanted in a Bible: soft cover, red letter, double columns with cross references, fantastic study notes, archeological sections, introduction to books. This isn’t the CSB Everyday Study Bible, but the Holman CSB Study Bible. This has gotten me really excited about Bible study again.
Tks ,Faith for this video, cause everyone will not say they are burnt out but I am to but I can pressing on love you
Hi Faith, a real nice motivating video. I have saved carefully, and I have bought throughout the year all of studies you have plus the reading plan and videos. I recently had to drop from the top-tier due to finances, that's how hard I've been hit. I just use crayons and colored pencils in my bible. I have a couple good pens as well. I'm not looking for sympathy here. I was wondering if you could do a video how to decorate journals with really cheap things. construction paper, kids' watercolors, markers, crayons (not the twistable kind) I buy things twice a year just before starts and January when school supplies are super cheap. I've come up with some things like leaf rubbings on paper, and different textures, bits of dried flowers. I'd love any suggestions from you or anyone else in the group. God Bless!

Thank you for this video Faith, I’ve gotten burned out and haven’t read my Bible in a few days. This encouraged me to keep fighting! 🥹
Faith, I saw a video of that foiling of a lady using a hairdryer to crinkle the foil...pretty cool 👍
God bless you Faith ,,,,great video 👌❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏 will be starting the Bible study tomorrow and look soooooo forward to the videos along with checklists as I study ❤❤ so blessed you created this amongst the others 🙏✝️🙏✝️
Lolll I love your “condescending God voice” HE WOULD NEVER, YALL! ❤❤❤😂
Wow....thank you. I so needed this right now. Thank you so much for sharing. As you know, I've been in this spot for a while now. Today, I finally got an irresistible pull to study just one verse in depth...so as not to overwhelm. Thank you for praying.
And, a super sweet local friend got me some new colored calligraphy pens. God just knows each of us so well. He's such a good Father!

Hey Faith! Where do you get your fun earrings from?
Is your office in your home. Great video
Not gonna lie, the 'other Faith' is a hoot! hehe
Hey Faith thanks for everything you do! Love the content and had a question what software do you use to edit video? Thanks ☺️
Haha I love advertising Faith ❤🎉😅😂

Genuinely, I do think that you need to be more patient with "Faith" (1:01). She has told us a couple of things that are really valuable to others!😉
Are there coupon codes for the tea shirts and mugs/notebooks etc.
No, unfortunately that's all through a third party so I just keep them at base cost and don't make profit off them because they are already so expensive.
If you get the videos do you also get the questions and prayer topics or do you have to purchase everything?
Girl…. I can literally tell in your video how disappointed you are in yourself for feeling burnt out with Bible Study specifically and how hard it was for you to admit it out loud. I swear a few times I saw your eyes turn red and well up with tears.

Do you have any bible journal recommendations?
I’m pretty new to studying the Bible and am getting ready to change bibles soon since mine is getting really packed, colorful and heartfelt entries and studies. My question is I have received some Christmas money and want to start my Bible study library and would like a suggestion from you on a good beginner book. I use the ESV version and the new year will be trying out the CSB version that was recommended by my pastor. Hopefully you will read this and be able to guide me in a direction that is safe and correct in teaching
Girl, you had me laughing. I really enjoyed this video. So does your twin have a name? I’m also intimidated by the new foil machine. lol. I did end up getting a new Diane so super excited to use in my Bible journaling. I hope one day we get to meet so I can give you a big sister hug and tell you thank you for all that you do. If it weren’t for your videos it wouldn’t have opened the door that I needed to open to get back to the Christian faith. So thank you 😊 ❤ May god bless you and your Family. Have a very merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
Just a few questions. I’m going to start reading and taking notes of the Bible…but I don’t really know where to begin. I’m assuming Genesis. Also is it okay for me to write in the bible for note taking? I would just feel like I’m ruining it
Hi Faith, I'm a Catholic. And I'm looking for an interleaved Bible. RSV, NRSV, or NAB. I can not seem to find one anywhere! Do you have a recommendation for me?
Hi, Faith! I hope you are not feeling so burnt out anymore!
I have a question for you. I have finally bought some big, heavy commentaries I'd been craving for years - Spurgeon's and Calvin's commentaries on the Psalms, Champlin's verse by verse commentaries on every book of the Bible, that sort of thing. I'm dying to start them, but I'm also afraid I'll read a couple of pages, find they are too difficult for me and never touch them again. That would be so sad! Any tips for me, please?
ask God to help you study His word :) Pray to your Heavenly Father love
Is your bible reading plan covering 66 or 73 books/chapters?
Hey Faith I just discovered your videos about a month or so ago and I enjoy them so much. They have really got me thinking about looking into commentaries and studying Bibles. This question is a little off topic but I was wondering if you have ever heard of John Cunningham Geikie he wrote a series called “Hours with the Bible” “The Scriptures in the Light of Modern Discovery and Knowledge” I found volume 4 a few days ago going through some boxes that had belong to my aunt. If you’ve heard of this author I was wanting to know your opinion because you seem to know so much about Bible commentaries. And secondly would you recommend “Life Application Study Bible” it is by Tyndale. I thought you mentioned that name before in your videos. Any way so glad I found your channel 😊
If you join patreon, do you get access to all of the videos that you had filmed previously?
You do!
Its cost is also tax deductible 😁
I miss you sooo much. ❤ MJ
I tried Instagram yesterday, then deleted acct. I was like getting weird stuff from weirdos...so I deactivated. I need an email to connect, or maybe, I'll just write to you on your p.o.box...
If it's the same/in TX still?.... I'm a talker, but homebound. Let's hope. This RUclips user is from RUclips for security reasons ✌️🌼💙
I'm glad you were able to push through and study the scriptures, but sometimes you ... just ... can't. You just don't have the time or the energy or the emotional bandwidth. That's OK. There's no command to study the Bible every day. Honestly, there's not even a command to read the Bible every day. What's most important is to maintain your habit of daily time in the Bible. It's OK to back off a little. You can just read the scriptures if you don't have the energy to study. Maybe you just need to read the next book in the Bible, or maybe you need to revisit a favorite passage. Maybe you need to be reminded of God's love (several Psalms or passages in the gospels are great for that) or that God is bigger than your problems (I like the last couple of chapters of Job or Isaiah 40-45 for that). Maybe you need to be reminded it'll all work out -- the last couple of chapters of Revelation will do that.
Maybe you even need to just listen to an audio Bible while you take a walk or sit in your rocking chair. Sometimes it's OK to just eat cereal for dinner. And sometimes it's OK to just let the scriptures wash over you.
Girl eye twitches cuz you need magnesium 🤔
