Getting Started
Welcome—we’re so glad you’re here! Visual Faith® is about slowing down, paying attention, and meeting God in creative ways. You don’t need to be an artist to begin. This is a journey of process, not product, and it starts with a simple step: showing up.

Pray
Ask God: What is He calling me to be and to do?
​
-
Is He inviting you into a daily deep dive into His Word?
-
Into a life of dedicated prayer?
-
Into sharing your faith with your family in engaging ways?
Prayer is the first step in discerning your path.
Experiment
Consider your capacity for daily devotional time. Visual Faith® Ministries offers practices, ideas, and resources to help you grow. The goal is always a deeper relationship with Jesus—slowing down, paying attention, and letting distractions fade.


Record
Choose how you’ll reflect, document, and remember:
-
Bible
-
Commonbook, Everyday Practices, and Gifts of Joy journals from the VFM Bookstore
-
Index cards
-
A composition notebook
It’s perfectly fine to experiment and shift as you settle into your devotional rhythm.
Explore
Where is the Holy Spirit leading you?
-
Devotional Journaling: Reflect on a passage, sermon, or devotional thought, then respond with words, prayers, and simple visuals.
-
Daily Gratitude: Record one or two things you’re thankful for each day, cultivating a heart of praise.
-
Scripture Scribing: Write out passages of Scripture slowly and intentionally, letting God’s Word sink deeper into your heart.
Pick one practice and commit to trying it.


Try
Jump in and begin. Adjust as you go. Invite a friend to join you, and “travel with Jesus together.”

Remember: God shows up even when we do not. He is always faithful.
