Hi Tracy
I would love to receive your e-mails.
Hi, Tracie! I’m a momentum member, but haven’t journaled in awhile. I’m taking care of my parents who are both in their mid nineties and on Hospice. I’d like to start this new year getting deeper in His word. Would you suggest that I start over with your free 10 day course? Thank you so much for all you do!
You could quickly go through the beginner tab in your Momentum membership to get up to speed on the basics. Of course we do all the devotions together in our Momentum membership so you would be able to do the Bible journaling with me even if you didn’t take the beginner course.
