The Quiet Place

I just wanted to take a minute and brag about how much I LOVE Bible Gateway. Seriously though, it makes my blogging life pretty amazing. What I have been especially loving lately is highlighting when reading through passages. I love that I can use different colors to coordinate my notes! It helps me to break everything down and understand what the meaning behind the verses are and what God is saying to me through them. If you haven't heard of www.biblegateway.com before I would definitely encourage you to check it out! They have TONS of great resources for Bible reading and studying all at your fingertips! Literally your fingertips, they have a great app that you can download for your smartphone. I really enjoy using the app to listen to scripture and to look up references on the go. AND just in case you didn't know, we are a Bible Gateway Blogger Grid Member!!! You can check out the Blogger Grid by clicking the button on are right hand sidebar (Note: you may need to scr...

The new Bible Gateway website is up! AND it's AMAZING if you haven't had a chance to check it out yet you really should. I just made myself a new account! Did you know that having a Bible Gateway account allows you to...  Save your Bible notes and highlights to the cloud, so you will never be without them, even if you lose or replace your mobile device. Sync your Bible notes and highlights across multiple mobile devices – and eventually, you'll be able to see all your notes and annotations on the website as well! Awesome! Right? Also, if you haven't checked out the blogger grid button at the bottom left of our page yet, I recommend that you do. It's a great resource providing a list of over 200 international bloggers that are serious about blogging God's word.  FYI - If you come back to the blog looking for the Biblegateway link later, you can find it on are "Resources" page.

Hey ladies! Today I just wanted to take some time to let you know about the great resources Bible Gateway has to offer. I'm on there website pretty much every time I write a blog post. It is a great Scripture resource, but it has so much more to offer as well. As frequently as I visit their sight, I am still finding new and helpful tools. There are many different tools you can use for blogging such as passage look up (in many translations), footnotes,  commentary, topical index and more. In addition to all of that good stuff, they also have audio Bibles, devotionals, reading plans, and a really awesome app you can download for your iphone! In case you didn't know here are some of the things Bible Gateway has going on right now... • Have you taken our  Bible quote quiz ? It presents you with 16 quotes and challenges you to identify which come from the Bible, and which are taken from a popular fantasy saga like  A Game of Thrones or the Harry Potter series. Once you'v...

Blogger's Note: Happy Friday Friends! Today I wanted to take some time and dive into Purity month with you here at The Quiet Place. The topic of purity is something that is close to my heart. I realize that the daily battles fighting to stay pure are difficult ones. It isn't always easy saying no to the things that we know we should, especially when all are friends are participating in the same things. But living pure IS possible, and SO SO Good! Dive into scripture with me this month as we take a journey to discover what purity is and what that means for us as Christian women. Today we'll begin with... Ephesians 4:17-32 Instructions for Christian Living 17  So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer  live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.   18  They are darkened in their understanding  and separated from the life of God  because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hea...

Hey Ladies!  Today on the blog we'd like to take some time to let you know about the tools that Bible Gateway has to offer!  Here at The Quiet Place Bible Gateway is our go-to Bible resource for blogging. We also love it for Bible study planning, personal reference, and Grad student paper writing. (Such a great help for paper writing my fellow students. The plethora of translations paired with helpful footnotes and commentaries for interpretation are great for research papers.) Today I'd like to especially mention one of Bible Gateway's newest resources, The Blogger Grid. We're really excited about the new Bible Gateway Blogger Grid here at The Quiet Place, especially because we have the honor of being a Bible Gateway Blogger Grid Member!  I have spent time investigating some of the other great blogs on the Blogger Grid and I have found them to be great reads written by people with passionate hearts for Jesus and for his Word. I highly encourage you ...
