Sit and Savor Journal: A Companion to the Elita Brown Series

The Sit and Savor journal is the perfect companion to the delightful story The Disappearing Seat.

Journaling is a beautiful and significant way to express your emotions and connect with God. In the book The Disappearing Seat, Elita Brown shares her love of journaling--and how writing down her gratitude and burdens helps her daily emotions. The Sit and Savor journal invites young readers to experience the blessings and benefits of journaling based on best-selling author Heather Holleman’s research and own forty year journaling practice. This journal offers a way to start and continue journaling using an easy list format (gratitude, burdens, ways to bless others) rather than traditional diary paragraph form. Pages for doodling, sketching, and expressing thoughts are included in this beautiful book.

In The Disappearing Seat, the character Elita wrestles with fear, restlessness, and a jealous heart. Through the wisdom revealed in nature and a loving spiritual mentor, Elita learns what it means to have access to the riches of God’s kingdom and how to enjoy the beautiful life God has given her. This companion journal invites readers to walk alongside Elita and discover the secret to savoring the good gifts all around them. Readers will enjoy meaningful quotes from both This Seat’s Saved and The Disappearing Seat that capture the wisdom of being seated at the best table with Jesus.

The Sit and Savor journal also provides a meaningful keepsake for readers to return to and remember God’s faithful presence in their lives.
