The Christian Planner That Finally Helped Me Slow Down (And Actually Talk to God About My To-Do List
Can I be honest with you for a second?
For years, I looked for a Christian planner that could actually hold my to-do list and my prayer life in the same place -and I never quite found one that felt right.
For a long time, my planner and my prayer life lived in two completely separate worlds. I’d wake up, grab my coffee, write out my to-do list, and rush into my day… and then somewhere in there, Id feel guilty that I hadn’t opened my Bible yet, or that my “quiet time” turned into five rushed minutes squeezed between emails.
I think a lot of us do this. We treat our faith like it’s one more box to check, instead of something woven into the actual rhythm of our day. And that’s exactly why I created a Christian planner – because I needed one page, not ten different notebooks, where my goals, my gratitude, and my time with God could all live together.
What Makes a Christian Planner Different From a Regular One
A regular planner asks,”What do you need to get done today?”
A Christian planner asks that too — but it also asks, Who do you need to pray for today? What is God trying to show you? Where did you see Him move this week?”
It’s the difference between managing your life and actually walking through it with the Lord.
When I sat down to build mine, I didn’t want another planner that just crammed faith into a corner with a random Bible verse at the bottom of the page. I wanted every single page to pull double duty — helping me stay organized and keeping my eyes on God while I did it.
A Peek Inside
Here’s a little bit of what you’ll find when you open it up:
Daily Goals, But Make It Faith-First
Every daily page starts with your top 3 prayers before it even gets to your to-do list. There’s room for your meal plan, sure — but right next to it, there’s space for the people God’s putting on your heart to encourage that day. Because honestly, some of the most important things I do in a day never make it onto a traditional to-do list.
A Real Prayer Journal
Not just a blank page that says “write your prayers here” — but a guided prompt, “Lord, hear my prayer…”, so you’re not staring at a blank page wondering where to start (we’ve all been there).
The S.O.A.P. Bible Study Method
If you’ve never used Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer before, it’s genuinely one of the simplest ways I’ve found to actually sit with a verse instead of just reading past it.
A Habit Master List — Habits to Surrender, Habits to Build This one might be my favorite page in the whole planner. One column for the things you’re ready to lay down at the cross — stress eating, skipping prayer, that constant worry about tomorrow. The other column for what you’re asking God to help you build instead — morning gratitude, prayer walks, screen-free evenings.
Monthlyr and Quarterly Faith & Wellness Goals
Because growth doesn’t happen in a day, and it helps to zoom out every once in a while and ask, God, what have You been doing in me this season?”
Morning Quiet Time & Evening Reflection Pages
A gentle way to start and end your day — not with your phone, but with a simple question: What is God whispering to my heart in the quiet today? aNd What burdens am I leaving at His feet before I sleep tonight?
Why I Wanted to Give This to You
I built this Christian planner for myself first, if I’m being honest. I needed a way to stop compartmentalizing my faith and my day-to-day life. But once I started using it, I realized — this isn’t just my struggle. So many of us are craving a little more peace, a little more intention, and a lot more Jesus woven into our ordinary days.
So I put together the full Faith & Wellness Planner & Devotional — all of this, plus a 2026 calendar, monthly faith and wellness goal trackers, a full year of “bright spot” gratitude logs, scripture-based affirmations, and more, and I’m giving it to you, completely free.
If you’ve been feeling like your relationship with God and your everyday life are running on two separate tracks, I really do think this planner will help bring them back together.
I’d love to hear which page becomes your favorite. Come find me on Pinterest or drop me a message — I read every one.
