Joined to Jesus" is a 7 week creative Bible study (with book) that integrates truths from the book of Ephesians with reflective writing and art journaling to move truth from a cerebral level to a transformational heart experience. “Joined to Jesus” explores specific ways to live as an expression of Christ as we remember where we have come from with thankful hearts; yield, in humility and wonder, to the nearness of God; embrace the process of being made new; live from a place of approval and abundance; and stand as a victorious expression of Christ to the world. Art tutorial videos or in-person studio demonstrations supplement this study.  Whether you consider yourself creative or not, you are a created child of God that can encounter Jesus through this study. (This book is available for purchase from Behold Him and can be found on Amazon.)

The Beautiful Exchange explores Christ’s invitations to abundance through six chapters and six corresponding art projects.Embrace His Beautiful Exchange not only through Biblical study (mind) but with your spirit (heart) through journaling and art making. Students are invited to intentionally engage His abundance through:

•knowing ourselves in order to know Him; Light for darkness. 

•feeling deeply the life He gave us to live and the loss that comes with it. Comfort for mourning. 

•trusting Him as we wait in the middle during the confusing, in-between seasons. Confidence in His character for confusion. 

•practicing a declaration of our freedom while we delight in and depend on Christ by stopping for twenty-four hours each week. Rest for weariness. 

•recognizing our limits and surrendering to His limitlessness. Beauty for ashes.

Accepting these invitations puts Christ in His rightful place and position our hearts to accept His beautiful exchange.
