Creative Journaling During Lent
Air Date February 13, 2013
Summary
How do you access your creative side? And how could that connect you to the observance of Lent? On this Midday Connection, artist Tamara Peterson joins us to talk about ways to engage your creative side as she opens us up to “Creative Art Journaling”. As we engage our creative side, let’s ask God to help us use it to connect with Him.
Tamara also created a group on Flickr to share photos of your creative journaling pages during Lent.
