Radiant journals

Starting to build an eternal relationship

Hello, friend!

Most of us were blessed to be taught God’s Word since we were young. And we know how strong what we learn as kids can stick with us!

But what about the preteen years, when it’s time to realize the Bible isn’t just the knowledge of the Truth, it’s to help us build an eternal relationship with God?

That’s why the Radiant journals were born. These are specifically designed for preteen girls to start studying the Bible as personally vital to them, taking it a little bit at a time in a bite-sized way by studying just one chapter of the Bible.

Whether you use this as one-on-one with your girl or as a class with the preteen girls in your home congregation (as we do, see here for more), we pray they help the girls become radiant as they look to their God, now and forever (Psalm 34:5).

Psalm 23
Bible Study Journal

Psalm 23 gives us a beautiful picture of what it means to be under God’s care. No matter what’s going on in life, he is our Shepherd. Whether we’re in green pastures and still waters or in the valley of the shadow of death, he is with us and his love is forever.

1 Corinthians 13
Bible Study Journal

1 Corinthians 13 brings us the most intricate and detailed description of what love is. We get to see love in God’s actions throughout the Bible, but here, God is telling is very practically how we can be like him in showing true love. This isn’t about love as the world defines it — this is the true definition. Love is…

Isaiah 53
Bible Study Journal

Isaiah 53 is one of the most powerful prophecies ever fulfilled. It’s the story of Jesus years and centuries before it happens. Everything that was told came true — because God knew what would happen. He knew we as mankind would need someone to save us. And he knew that someone would have to be his own Son. Isaiah 53: the story of Jesus years before it happened…
