This highly practical book reveals that there are many ways of being creative that will help us grow as Christians. As well as journaling, we can try: mind-mapping, composing a letter to God or from God to u, considering what we would like to appear in our obituary, dialoguing in prayer with Jesus, with particular obstacles in our lives, or with God's silence, addressing difficult issues through imaginary conversation, using poetic language to express emotions, to celebrate the wonder of an extraordinary moment or to articulate one of the great biblical truths
