Using Sketchnoting to deepen your Bible Study, Devotional time, Prayer time and Sermon Notes.
What is Sketchnoting?
Welcome to Blessings, a site dedicated to helping you go deeper in your walk with the Lord. Come and learn to Sketchnote sermons, doodle during your devotionals, and do some brushwork in your Bible study. No artisic skills are required. Sketchnoting is the process of adding visual elements to your notes. Adding visual elements gets the right and left sides of the brain working together. Sketchnoting helps you comprehend the concept better, your recall will be faster and you will retain the information longer.
