My Blog

I am Stephanie Ackerman

I believe God is the Creator, He created us in His image, therefore, we are creative.

He has given each of us unique gifts & talents to love Him and Love others. My hope is that through what I share, I will be able to teach, inspire, encourage and remind you of the things you already know, just forgot to remember.

The Heart of the Matter

I have created & made things my entire life.  For most of the time I thought it was “just a talent” but in the past 20+ years, I realized all of it, the journaling, the stitching, the learning, the paint, the prayers wasn’t random. It was worship. It was healing. It was creativity connected to Jesus. I have learned, recognized and believe it is a gift from God for me to love Him and share with you.  This is where my passion lives:


  • In the pages of Bible studies filled with color and reflection.
  • In hand-stitched books and collaged fabric covered in prayer.
  • In devotional journaling that captures both the mess and the message.

I believe art and faith are not separate but deeply intertwined. Through my scrapbooking, journaling, stitching, doodling, studying and creating with intention, I’ve found a rhythm that brings me closer to God and helps me walk in the purpose He designed just for me.

And now, I help other women do the same.

My Approach

Through my online courses, creative workshops, and retreats, I help women:


  • Connect with God through faith based creative practices
  •  Learn slow stitching and fabric collage as a form of reflection
  • Explore the Bible through journaling, word study, and prayer
  • Embrace creativity as worship, not performance
  • Build stitch books, prayer journals, affirmation cards, and meaningful art


Whether you feel like a creative soul or you’re just curious about mixing paint with prayer, stitching with Scripture, or journaling with Jesus, you’re in the right place.
