What if you simply made room for God every day?

MANNA is a yearlong Scripture and prayer journal designed to help you slow down, open the Bible, listen to God, and respond.

Inside:

  • A year of thoughtfully selected Scripture readings.
  • Simple rhythms for prayer and reflection.
  • Guided prompts that do not over-direct your time with God.
  • Space to journal, listen, question and respond.
  • The seasons of the Christian year woven throughout.
  • A spacious format designed for daily use.

Grace, one day at a time

Following the rhythms of the historic Christian year, from Advent and Christmas through Lent, Eastertide, Pentecost, and Ordinary Time, MANNA places you inside the story of Jesus while creating a simple daily rhythm of Scripture, reflection, prayer, and journaling.

This isn’t about reading more or trying harder. It’s about learning to receive. Like the manna God provided in the wilderness, grace comes to us one day at a time.

“Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”
Matthew 4:4

The MANNA practice

What if you began each day expecting God to meet you?

MANNA is a simple daily practice of spending time with Jesus in Scripture, listening for His voice, and responding in faith. Be with Jesus, hear His voice, respond in obedience. It’s not about knowing more; it’s about knowing Him.

  • M · Meditate. Read the Scripture slowly, even aloud. Sit with it.
  • A · Attune. Listen. Which word or phrase stands out?
  • N · Notice. What might God be saying to me through it?
  • N · Navigate. Discern your next faithful step.
  • A · Adore / Ask. Respond in prayer: worship, give thanks, bring requests.
