This is a very beautiful journaling book that has pages for 52 weeks, with chapters containing topics that give you wonderful ideas of things to both write about and contemplate and ponder about. The subjects are Christian in nature and help you to unwind physically and spiritually. It reminds you to rely on God to help you resolve many of the concerns and worries that press upon your mind. It helps you find strength and happiness through becoming closer to God.
There is beautiful and simple artwork throughout the pages. There are thoughts, scriptures and places to reflect on them by writing down your own thoughts and feelings and what that scripture means in your life.

This is a beautiful and meaningful way to express your thoughts and become more resilient to life's cares and worries.

I received a complimentary ebook version of this book from the publisher, Waterbrook & Multnomah and was not required to post a positive review. All thoughts are my own.

This is an adult coloring book that presents Black voices, and historical culture. The coloring book contains cultural references with biographical stories of various people and their personal experiences in the civil rights movement, their occupations and their stories.
The artwork is done by all Black artists and contains scriptural references on many of the pages. The artwork to be colored is relaxing and enjoyable with varying degrees of complexity. I enjoyed the quotes which contained thought provoking statements. It was a very nice coloring book with a most worthwhile purpose.

If you are like me and have often resolved to read your Bible in a year to varying levels of success, this journal might be right up your alley. Designed to take you through the Bible in a year with readings from both the New and Old Testaments, this journal keeps you on track with space for three years worth of reading and record your note and insights.

It is easy to use with 5 1/2 lines per day, perfect for concise and compact notes. I like that with this journal you can choose the translation of the Bible that you like best for your readings, and even switch it up year to year or even day to day. I personally don't like to write in my Bible, so this journal is the perfect place for me to jot down takeaways from the text in a neat and organized way that makes it easy to look back on, without actually writing in your Bible. But even if you do like to write notes in your Bible, this journal is an excellent companion and adds additional space for those notes. In addition to room for journaling it also includes a few extras, with pages with an index of verses for when you need, joy, peace, comfort, overviews, and fun facts about different Bible translations.

I'm excited to start this journal fresh on January 1st, but it would also make an excellent gift to give just in time for Christmas. I was impressed with the clever design. Definitely worth checking out for yourself or as a gift for a friend or family member this Christmas!

5 stars, Awesome reading

THE DAILY BIBLE PROJECT
by Ink & Willow

I adore this book, I can't decide if it's a journal, a diary, or a tool to help a person read the Holy Bible in one year. Regardless, it's a beautiful book, that is sectioned out with three individual sections on every page, with recommended Bible passages to read, part from the Old Testament, and part from the New Testament every day to accomplish the goal of reading the entire Bible in one year. The sections are lined, but it is not dated with a year, so you can start it whenever you want be it January 1st or March 22. You would fill in the years as you go along.

There is plenty of space along the sides so you can doodle or add additional notes as you need or want to.

Highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to further their knowledge of the Holy Bible, anyone who journals, or likes to write in a diary. It's a perfect resource, gift, and treasure. I personally keep a five-year journal, writing a few paragraphs every single day, so it's quite feasible for me to switch over to this journal for my walk in The Word.

I humbly appreciate the complimentary copy of #thedailybibleproject from #inkandwillow I was under no obligation to post a review. #waterbrookmultnomah #waterbrook #2021bestnewnonfiction #Christianstudies #inkandwillowgifts #multnomah #waterbrookpress

What an easy way to keep track of your bible reading, your prayers, and spiritual growth, and a quick way to look back at the previous years, and see how you have grown, how your prayers were answered, and the way you have grown in your daily bible reading.

I loved the hint that you could read a different translation each year, there is space for three years of reflections, and compare your answers.

We are also given bonus pages that make you think and want to investigate further, The Bible by Numbers, Verses for when you need Hope, Names for God, Comparing the Gospels, Verses for when you need Comfort, Verses for when you need Joy!

I have now using this and loving it, and know what I'll be sharing with my family!

I received this book from the Publisher, and was not required to give a positive review.

The Daily Bible Project is a three-year journal published by Ink & Willow. It is a softbound book with a year-long chronological plan for users to read through the Bible. On each page are three separate areas, one for each year, for the user to write thoughts or questions about the day's reading. I like that one could look back at the year(s) before journal notes to see changes and growth in one's faith and understanding of that particular day's Bible passage. Throughout the book, there are a number of color pages that have a variety of interesting tidbits of information, such as Names for God, Verses for when you need hope, peace, joy, or comfort, The Bible by numbers, and Textual criticism, comparing the Gospels, as well as several others. At the back of the book, there is another reading plan that could be used, The Old and New Testament sequential plan. This is a beautiful book that would be great for one's personal use or for gift giving. I read a complimentary copy of the book from the publisher and was not required to write a positive review.

You will Have Fun with This!

Having trouble coming up with something to talk about? Want something new and entertaining? Want something new and entertaining? Are you going on a long car ride, and want something to make the time fun? How about pulling out one of these every day at suppertime? Even before you knew you wanted it, this is what you needed! There are one hundred cards here that will turn any situation into a lively time.

For instance, if you had to choose only one culture’s food to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be? American, Italian, Mexican, or something else entirely?

Or, if you could do something that you did during your childhood for a full day, what would it be? Pick what you really enjoyed!

Finally, if you could be a superhero, what superpower would you choose? Do you want to hang out in the Bat Cave, fly through the air like a bird or a plane, or maybe enjoy some Spidey-Sense?

These well-made cards come in a nice box with categories sure to get some spirited talk going. Subjects covered are:

Friends & Family
Travel
Faith
Just for Fun
Then & Now

These are family friendly, and they are very portable. I highly recommend this 5+ star card set to anyone who enjoys a good time!

Ink & Willow has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, The Daily Question Conversation Card Set, for the purpose of review—opinions are my own.

Get Outside is a beautiful journal focused on religion and nature. It features “inspirational quotes, thoughtful journaling prompts, and valuable information to enhance every outdoor adventure.”

The first time I used this journal, I was sitting outside in the grass on a peaceful summer day. The prompts are often simple, but they make you think about and appreciate the nature around you. This journal is a perfect gift and a great book to take outdoors. Not only is the cover pretty, it’s also study and holds up better than other ones I’ve seen.

One part of Get Outside that I really enjoyed was the activity log where you can write down little bits about your adventures. If you’re looking for a journal that combines Christianity and nature, then this might be the one for you.

5 stars, In an electronic world, how to talk about real things

THE DAILY QUESTION Conversation Starter Cards by Ink & Willow

This resource is set up like a game for at least 2 people, recommended for persons aged 8+ it is a handy little box of 100 cards and dividers separating each category.

FRIENDS & FAMILY
TRAVEL
FAITH
JUST FOR FUN
THEN & NOW

It's a handy conversation starter for everyone who is lost in their own electronic world, this will enable you to pull a card and talk about your thoughts and feelings about the topic. For example:

If you could do something that you did during your childhood for a full day, what would it be?

Everyone will have a different answer. I especially like the THEN & NOW section, which would be wonderful to use to ask your older family members, to find out things that they like and don't like. I will keep a journal will everyone's answers, creating an instant keepsake that will help future generations understand who we were and what we believed in.

It is sad because, in my own family, I know that some of them were believers, but there is no written history for anyone. I would like to change that with my generation. I keep a daily journal, but this card set will enable me to take a snapshot of our family and keep it for all time. Highly recommend. You can use this cute box of questions to use around the dinner table or living room setting or you can simply pull a card and ask anyone (I think it would work better with your own family) the question on a card.

You don't have to keep any record of the answers to the questions, I will simply because my memory is faulty and I need a helper to remember. And, my grandmother is 97 years old, she most likely won't be around for too many more years and I'd like to look back on her responses.

Much gratitude to #inkandwillow for the complimentary copy of #thedailyquestionconversationcardsset I was under no obligation to post a review.

40 DAYS of INTENTIONAL LIVING Book Launch Team. The review is my own opinion.
I am very impressed with this book. The pictures inside are beautiful and tranquil. Each day is a different subject that includes scripture . There is also a question at the end to go deeper in the study.

The design is well made and easy to take care of. I love that it gives you passages to read and study the Bible with. I found myself wanting to stay on one day for awhile because I didn’t want to rush hearing from God.

This would make a great gift to anyone who loves devotionals or who wants to study a particular subject they may be struggling with. Make sure you grab a copy for yourself and give one to a friend.

I received a copy of this book from WaterBrook & Multnomah Book Launch Team.

I was gifted with this wonderful book, journal, devotional. It is a gentle guidance, and I am loving it!

I have been using it for a few weeks and enjoying, but now I'm going to be using it during Lent! I can really see my faith growing using this, and am excited to have this as a resource. It is divided into 8 themes with five topics each, Hope, Faith, Suffering, Joy, Surrender, Rest, Generosity, and Love.

One of the beginning pages states: "Teach me and show me your truth this season. May I use what you're teaching me to reach others." and that is exactly what I am hoping for in this journey.

I also love at the end of each chapter there are questions to help you reflect and thus to help me grow in my faith

Thank you Ink and Willow for this gift and a chance to review this book, and the opinions are my own and I was not required to give a positive review.

The 52 Weeks of Gratitude: A One-Year Journal to Reflect, Pray, and Record Thankfulness from Ink & Willow addresses many topics within four main categories: home, community, faith, and beauty. The journal is not seasonal based and can be started at any time of the year. Personally, I liked doing one entry every 2-3 days instead of one per week.

Each journal prompt in 52 Weeks of Gratitude covers a two-page spread. The topic is highlighted at the top and followed by a Scripture. A few sentences about the topic come next and a related reflection question offers the prompt to respond to. While many of the questions could be answered in 3-5 quick sentences, there was so much space to write that it felt like an invitation to dig deeper beyond the first answer – to question the why, to think of memories, or to compose a prayer of thanksgiving. At the bottom of the second page, there is a brief call-to-action.

I have enjoyed using the 52 Weeks of Gratitude journal and will continue to do so. It is a nice way to take a few minutes to reflect and be mindful. Thankfulness has a way of turning my mind to a more positive state and reminding me of my blessings.

I recommend 52 Weeks of Gratitude from Ink & Willow to anyone looking for an inspirational journal that mixes Scripture, faith, and thankfulness. The journal itself is beautiful, sturdy, and has the look/feel of a premium product. It lacks a built-in bookmark, but would still make a lovely gift for anyone who enjoys journaling.

Disclosure of Material Connection: I was provided a copy of this book by the author or publisher. All opinions in this review are my own.

I was beyond excited to get this from the publisher. There is nothing I like more than to spend time with my husband. This gem is a three year journal for couples and is well written. The hard cover makes it sturdy and will last through each entry placed there.

We will begin using this on January 1, 2021. I did go through the book and looked at the questions. This would be perfect to give as a wedding gift. I think it would be a useful tool for churches to have as couples go through counseling. It is geared to interact with each other and express your feelings. How fun it will be when you use it again next year. Each year the questions will be the same, but the answers may surprise you. I highly recommend this and can’t wait to start using it.

Are you looking for a gift for the book nerd in your life? I’ve found it. To Read or Not to Read is a literary journal (or diary) for you or the book lover in your life.

Designed for book lovers, you’ll find pages to list and review the books you’ve read, book lists (e.g., BBC Top 100 Reads), trivia (e.g., A Guide to Bookish Holidays), quizzes to test your bookishness, and so much more.

It's a lovely little book, small enough to fit in your purse or bag but it has a rich and quality feel. It feels good in my hands. I find myself picking this book up over and over because there’s just so much to love about it.

Here’s my recommendation. Buy two: one for yourself and one for your favorite reader.

I received a copy of this book courtesy of the publishers (Ink and Willow Publishing) for my honest opinion and wasn't required to write a positive review.

Are you looking for a book to track your every growing stack of books? Well, this book called To Read or Not to Read is a book for you. It sturdy bind and paper. It was made of really good quality. This book is more of a tracker or diary for book lovers.

You love writing down your thoughts or what inspired you this book has it. It also has a few different things for you. There are some surprises for you when you open it up. You can also Make your TBR List and check out many Lists that are in the book.

This book is good to give as a gift a well for yourself or someone else that loves books. You could gift it to someone in your family that enjoys books.

Whatever is Lovely is such a unique and pretty book of postcards! I love the entire premise—sharing gorgeous artwork and Scripture to encourage and brighten someone’s day. Who wouldn’t want to receive a pretty postcard in the mail, especially when it’s personalized with colored pictures from a loved one? The cards are even pretty enough to send without coloring.

I can’t wait to color and send these cards to people I care about. Especially when so many are sheltering-in-place or going through difficult times during this pandemic. Mailing these 24 inspirational cards is a simple gesture, but has the potential to make someone’s day, for the sender and the receiver. Win-win!

To Read or Not To Read by Ink and Willow

Rating: 4 stars

This is a book for you to fill in about the books you read, whether or not they are your favorites and have a record of your comments on each book and what you like about them. There is a self index, so you can find each book easier, without having to flip through the entire book to find the one you want. It is said that it could be a nice way for future family members to see what you liked to read and what you thought of them.

I am a little disappointed, the book was presented as a "book journal" it's more of a book report book, than journal, at least to me. I already have a book like this, was really looking forward to the "journal" part of it.

It does have lists in the back of it, that are of books that have won awards or classics that you might want to read. There are author spotlights, to learn more about a few authors.

This could be good for a gift or as a multigenerational family project. I received a copy from Ink and Willow and Waterbrook and Multnomah with no obligation for a review.

I was gifted with this wonderful book of 24 postcards, and now I can present these to my dear friends and family.
With the stress of what is going on now, pandemic, election, etc. these will be a great pick up when received by dear ones.
Each card is presented with a front to color, either by you or the person you are lifting up, a saying to encourage. The back where I put the address also has a bible verse or a pondering.
I can see my looking through these and finding just the right one for the right person, and their personal needs.
I can't wait to get coloring, and each card has a splash of sparkling metallic ink, so you can decide to send them as they are!

Choose Joy: A Coloring Book of Gratitude and Wonder contains beautiful pictures to be colored along with faith filled messages. There is a wonderful message at the beginning about letting go. We are not in control. We need to pick joy, gratitude, and wonder because everything is under God’s control. The images include flowers, rainbows, birds, fish, butterflies, and more. They are images of items that God has created. Each picture includes a faith message in lovely lettering. The paper is good quality cardstock so ink (if you are using markers) will not bleed through onto other pages. There are forty-five single sided images. Coloring can be a relaxing activity. It is nice to take time out of our busy lives, relax, and create something pretty that will bring joy into our lives.

Choose Joy is an interactive coloring book aimed at adults, but anyone would find happiness within its pages.

The pages are made of a nice heavy paper that doesn't bleed through with most inks. Most of the pages have a floral theme with pretty, fancy lettering. Each page has a Christian themed quote on it and on the reverse side, there's details about each quote and the drawing.

Each page has takes some time to color, so there is plenty of time to contemplate each quote and appreciate the nice artwork.

Many thanks to Ink and Willow and Waterbrook Multnomah for the complimentary copy of this book. I was under no obligation to post a review.
