We had such a blast chatting with Arbor Diggs this week!  We got to hear the story of how Arbor's journaling practice began and how she was encouraged to share that form of creativity with others.  She also recently launched a thriving ministry called "Worthy Nights," which serves high school girls in the Knoxville, TN area through FCA.  Arbor is an awesome person to call friend and an inspiring creative in her field! Follow Us: https://linktr.ee/fspodResources:FB - Arbor DiggsIG - @arbor_diggs, @arborsjournalWorthy Nights - @worthynightsknoxville, @greaterknoxvillefcaIf you're a writer and would like your work featured on our blog, shoot us a message at [email protected] By - Brooks CokerArtwork By - Jacob Hall
