One of my habits, which I enjoy is to sketch during the message on Sunday’s at church. I’m sure some people would frown about this but I find that I remember much more of what is said if I’m sketching at the time, something about association of images and words (someone told me once). Anyway, I do some of my best sketches while I’m only semi concentrating on what I’m doing for some reason, maybe they come out looking less ‘try-hard’ or something like that.

Last Sunday my hubby spoke from the first chapter of the book of Ezra and here’s the sketches I did while he was speaking:

Looks great, Amanda.

People learn in different ways so whatever helps you take in the message must be good.
