In August we're going to explore the topic of TRUTH using the Monthly Bible Quilt Journal, "Building on a Firm Foundation."
If you don't have the Monthly BQJ, you can follow along with us using the BQ Calendar, another BQ journal, or whatever personal study materials you have that fit this particular season of your life.
Truth sets the guardrails on our paths, helping our hearts stay aligned in integrity. This is going to be a great dive into THE TRUTH we find in God's Word!
You may access the year's full list of references as a free printable with code FREELIST. They're formatted as bookmarks, so cut out the one on TRUTH and let's get started!
Add the dates on the August calendar page by handwriting them, stamping, or applying stickers. Then add the daily verses, the next BQ Zoom chat, and whatever devotional goals you may have for the month.
Cut out the colorful "Truth" title from the back of the journal to adhere to the page. Then color and decorate with washi tape or seasonal stickers however you'd like!
Thanks to Pip, a Bible Quilter in Maine, for curating our collection of verses this month.
Writing out the scriptures onto a flip card set helps us become familiar with the verses and the surrounding passages to understand it in context. Once completed, the flip cards make a handy personal reference or a resource to share with a friend who might need extra encouragement from the Word.
If you want to shorten the time spent prepping your flip cards, we've got a digital version of all the verses typed out and formatted. Just print and cut, then slide the cards onto a binder ring!
After you've gotten your scriptures gathered up, you're all set to begin the 2-page spread in the Monthly BQ Journal. It's also available as a printable if you don't have the journal or would like an extra to share with a friend.
It will be so rewarding as these pages fill up with beautiful scripture!
We also have the featured template of the month, Open Bible. We can use verses from our reference list that impact us or create with additional scriptures we've discovered along the way as we've studied this topic.
It's almost August. Ready to beat the heat and create with some cactus cuties on the August calendar?
Don't forget to mark your calendars for our next Online Chat to discuss this month's topic and some summer pages.
PLUS we're having an IN-PERSON event, too!!
