Continuing our weekly conversations

The deal: Each Thursday, we announce a question of the week. We seek to ask questions that spark interesting conversations, whether it simply be about books, traditions, spiritual disciplines, more theological matters, or anything related to life in general. You can join in our conversations two ways:

1. Leave a comment with your thoughts!

2. Or, if you prefer, post an answer to your own blog and leave us a link to your post so we can comment and add to the conversation. If you post on your own blog, you are welcome to use the picture above as long as you link back to us somewhere in your post.

This week's question...

If you could meet up with one Biblical person (besides Jesus) for a day and ask any questions, who would it be? What would you seek to learn from them?

    It would be Ruth. She's such a strong example of faithfulness and obedience. I'd just like to know more about her experiences and perceptions of trusting God and His bringing about her meeting Boaz.

    I would talk to Anna, and ask her how she came to be so disciplined in prayer and serving others in the temple. She was an amazing woman of faith!

    I would have to say either Ruth to.. Her willingness to leave her family and everything she knows to follow God..

    It's so hard to decide! I think I'm leaning toward Martha (of Mary and Martha) though, because of her childlike amazement and facsination at what Jesus had to say.

    I think I would talk to King Hezekiah, his faith and steadfastness in the Lord is a miracle considering his previous ancestors. He is one of my favorite Biblical figures.

    I would talk to David. Even though he made mistakes and sinned. He also repented and was left a legacy that is unprecedented. He loved God. He was a man who had a heart that ran after God with everything that it had.
    That is something that I want. I would ask him to tell me what he learned. Maybe we could worship together.

    I would like to talk to Solomon. Just to listen and learn from the wisest man who ever lived.

Farewell

For over 11 years, Bloom! has existed to spur you on in your journey towards Biblical womanhood.  What started as a big dream in the hearts of three teen girls, turned into an international print magazine and then later turned into a thriving blog.  Our heart has been to go beyond the fluff and dig deep into God’s Word and into how to practically apply that to our daily lives.  If any good has come out of Bloom! , we know it is because God is the one who waters the seeds we plant ( 1 Cor. 3:7 ).  This journey of magazine and blog has spanned for over a decade and what a thrilling and beautiful one it has been.   God has deepened and widened our worldview.   He has given us a deeper understanding of His ways.   He’s brought me (Joanna) through some really hard times and pushed me to write despite the pain .   He’s shown me that although I am nowhere near perfect, He can still use me anyway. One thing He’s been teaching me recently is that sometimes, some chapters mus

The Art of Spiritual Journaling

- And we're back! Thanks for your patience while we took a brief hiatus. We're back to posting regularly and we have some exciting new stuff planned for the weeks ahead (including a few book giveaways!), so check back again throughout the week. - Also, a note: if you're a reader and would like your blog added to our sidebar, please leave us a comment or e-mail us. We're hoping to start a list of links on our sidebar of all of our readers' blogs. - - I have never been much of a journaler. I have always been very much a future thinker and would rather write a list of goals rather than recount the events of a past day or flesh out my confusing emotions on paper. But within the past year or two I have been discovering the art of journaling as a spiritual discipline, discovering that journaling has the power to broaden my understanding of God, to help me find the splendor in the ordinary, and to help me see more clearly God's grace at work in my life. - No
