Deuteronomy 6:6-7

And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. ~ Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Julie Naturally - A Crew Review

 Disclaimer: I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.








Do you practice the discipline of a daily quiet time? Those of us who call ourselves Christians know how important it is to study the Bible, but it does take a conscious effort. Maybe you used to have personal devotions regularly, but lately, you've found that you've slipped out of the routine. You want to, you intend to do it, but well, life seems to get in the way, and pretty soon, you find yourself caught up in the tide of a busy family life. I've been there more times than I would like to admit. I feel the battle of "the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak". But, I also want to model the habit of a daily quiet time to my daughters. I want them to learn that busyness is not an excuse to skip Bible study. In fact, I want them to see Bible study not as another thing on their to-do list, but a vital component of life. With all of this in mind, I was keen to receive the Faith Journeys Bible Study Series: Romans bundle and the Faith Journeys Bible Study Series: Phillipians from Julie Naturally to use and review.

Julie Polanco is the creator of Julie Naturally. She has experience working in a variety of roles within the church. Her resources focus on equipping homeschooling families in wholesome, natural living. Her site provides a wealth of information for unschooling, homesteading, wholistic health, and most important, the Christian life.

Both studies require a computer of course, to download and print the studies, a Bible, and a binder. Julie recommends that you print off the pages and secure them in a binder. All material is copyrighted, and is for the use of the buyer only.



This first study is the Faith Journeys Romans bundle. It is an 8 week study, created with busy Christian moms in mind. Daily exercises may be completed in as early as 20 minutes. The study provides Bible passages, questions that relate to the daily passage, videos (for the bundle version only), memory verse cards that can be cut apart and put wherever you like in the house, car, etc., and coloring pages.

The Philippians Bible study follows the same structure as the Romans study. It is a bit shorter than the former, being a 4 week study. Again, you'll find Bible passages, questions, memory verse cards, and coloring pages, this time focusing of course, on the book of Philippians. 




I'm confident that I'm not alone in saying that these days, I've found myself more anxious than usual, and a bit out of sorts. These studies have been a refreshing part of my day. That's what the Word of God does, it refreshes our spirit, and brings our focus back to where it should be, on Him.

I like to have my quiet time earlier in the morning, when the house is quiet, and the day is still calm. I've been using them with my teen daughters, and it's a really good time for us together. I love seeing the growth in my daughters intellectual capacity, and hearing how they see the Scripture applying to their lives. Hopefully, it's instilling  a habit in Bible study that will be a life long routine.

You can use these studies for just yourself, or bring your older daughters in to work through them together. However you choose to implement them, they will enhance your spiritual growth. Check them out.
