The Little Library of WWJ & How to Find Your Way Around Here
I made it easy for you so you don't have to waste time scrolling. Welcome to the Writing with Jesus library!
Hey Substack friends! Welcome to the Writing with Jesus library!
Do you ever find yourself scrolling through posts on someone’s publication, trying to use your best judgement to decide what to read based on the titles? Maybe you read one post that you just loved, and you want to read another one that might make you feel the same way, but you’re overwhelmed by where to begin. Then you click on one, and ugh, bummer, it’s not what you were hoping for. I’ve been there. Which is why I decided to create this little library for you.
So please, get cozy, grab your coffee, maybe tea, breathe, and peruse. It’s quiet, we all love to read, and I’m glad you’re here.
(I’ll update this post every week, so you always have access to easy navigation around Writing with Jesus. If you see a post in multiple sections, don’t freak out, I just couldn’t decide which section it belonged in the most. Some of these photos are mine and some are even better than mine because they were found on Pinterest. Enjoy!)
