I am free writing in a Bullet Journal. It is my first time trying any kind of a Bible study. I am using the Bible in a Year with Father Mike Schmitz. Really enjoying it so far, and I might need more than one bullet journal to get through it all. I bought some faith stickers, and I am decorating with them as I feel moved to. I have also colour coded the pens to match the themes followed in the study.

I been loving to use the Dashboard!! On the daily I do my daily verse… on the M-Sun boxes I write daily reading… on the left side I use either for prayer requests, gratitude,affirmations,a verse that stood out to me in my readings, or just journal something that happened were I saw God’s work ❤

For my daily devotions I also use a Big size. I recently upgraded to the larger size because my handwriting is bigger and I am a writer by nature. I tend to talk a lot… at least on the page 😂🙈 but I use the HP Daily sheets. I have to white out a lot. 😭 but I have stuff that goes in all the sections and I REALLY love the daily sheets for it. The little circle is where I annotate the scriptures I studied that day. The “3 priorities” section became “key points” that I learned in the scripture. The tasks/bullets is where I free write my thoughts on the scripture (I just ignore the bullet points). The dot grid portion is where I’ll hand-letter a part of the verses that spoke to me. And the two shaded boxes beneath the dot grid are for words or concepts I needed to look into more deeply… like definitions of words or what did the author mean in the context of the era it was written. Basically the deeper background info that I learned or found helpful. It’s been a game changer because I agree… I can’t think nor fit all my thoughts on those small vertical lines on the HP faith and when a page is done, it feels like it’s almost claustrophobic for writing. Now for what I take to church? That’s a classic size that I’ve frankenplanned. Hahaha. There’s a lot to that so I won’t get into it all but mainly I use the monthly for scripture writing but I’m prob going to switch to that new Walmart HP layout in July to see if I like it better! 😂🙈

I am using a classic sized faith happy planner with Cocoa Daisy company vertical inserts added and their Bible Journal stickers. ( i throw out non king james verse stickers though). I use it for monthly devotional kits, prayer, daily scripture reading, memory verse reminder . Prayerful planner is really good too. I just wite out the verse and write in King James instead. It is also a neat layout.

I agree with you 1000% about the Happy Planner Faith planner. Not everyone does the soap method. Now if someone is new to Faith planning/studying than it’s an excellent planner! But personally for me I take a lot of nots and a lot of my studies have questions to answer so the soap method wastes writing space for me. I do my devotionals in a separate section, same scripture writing as you in the monthly. I write so much that I can’t even do a lot of decorating which I love the look of all the ones you do. Right now I use a regular Big HP and keep 1 month at a time with multiple other sections for devotionals, verse mapping, word study, etc… I have a separate larger prayer journal and a bullet journal for my sermon notes as it’s small and easy to carry. I’m still changing things up here and there. I love Heathers new faith planner but would love it in the Big size. I can’t wait for the day I find my Faith planner peace. I love your videos Elise! Especially the faith ones and craft organizing ones! I hope to join your Patron as soon as I heal from surgery. I’m trying to have patience. Lol Thank you for sharing with us!! 🩷

For my faith planner, I do frankenplanning. Last year I used a HP faith planner, but didn't like the layout very much. I loved the way you did your memory verses so I copied your method for those and use student planner for that but move the days to the top of the page. I also use a block layout for my daily devotions. I do this part of my faith planner at the end of the day. There are six sections and I use them for the verse of the day, the attribute of God that I experienced that day, prayer requests, Little splashes of joy- something that put a smile on my face that day, praise, and lastly thanksgiving. The next section I use leftover faith planning pages to do Illustrated Faith studies or other small studies. The last section is filler paper to take notes when I do larger studies. I buy Happy Planners on clearance to use the pages to put all this together and reuse faith planner dividers. Thank you for all your tips that have helped me develop this system that keeps me engaged with my devotional time with the Lord!

I love your Plum Paper planner, hope you stick with it! I like the layout and the font, but your unique style is what makes it appealing. I use a B5 hardcover lined journal with thick paper, from Walmart ($4.00) for in-depth Bible studies. Since 2018, I've also been working through an A5 college journal I picked up at TJ Maxx for $3.99. All other faith related things (prophetic words, prayers, thoughts...) go in there. When I finally finish the last 40+ pages, I'll start a new one. I like all the pretty planners, but at the end of the day, what works best is DOING YOU. Thanks for sharing!

Before HP switched to the SOAP method they did the horizontal layout for their Faith planners. I wish they would offer both options for the faith planners. I bought the big faith planner and there's just not enough room for me to write in those smaller sections. I ended up going back to a classic planner and buy horizontal layouts to customize for my faith planning now. It's a little more work but it I like it the most. I wish, like you, that they made a Big Horizontal Faith Planner!

Now this Happy Planner Layout using the soap method looks very promising im just a little uneasy with the large size im more a 7x9 or even A5 when it comes to Faith planning. and I really like the design of the Kell of a plans Faith Planner too I might just try both maybe the Happy Planner for study and the kell of a plan as a companion for prayers.

The vertical layout didn’t work for my faith planner. This year I bought the new one and hopes it works, but I don’t think I’ll use Happy Planner if it only offers the vertical option for faith planners.

Sounds like a plan!

I have 2 faith planners, one for scripture and one for a guided journal type of work. I use a horizontal for the scripture one for sure. I can’t imagine using a vertical for that. There’s not as much room and it just doesn’t flow to me. For the guided journal type that I’ve been doing I’ve been using a regular vertical and made my own prompts (3 a week along the side, but it’s for each day). For the coming year I’m using a HP faith layout for it and I’ll just do my prompts instead of their SOAP headers. I watch a lot of planning videos and have been doing it for a few years now. I don’t know anyone who really likes the SOAP method in their faith planner. I have heard a lot of complaints about it though! And if the header areas are just blank it would still work for them anyway. I’m baffled as to why HP is still doing it. If Heather had a Big version of her faith planner I’d be throwing my money at her (even though I prefer dated planners)!
