A Writer's Journal
A simple book you actually get to write is better than an awesome one you dream of writing and is still in your head. Don’t join the statistics of the many people with a dream to write their books but never realise it.
The process is straight forward – (i) Write the book God has deposited in your heart, (ii) Get published, (iii) Distribute to your readers, and (iv) See lives being transformed for Jesus Christ.
From our experience running CLC Kenya’s writing classes and graduating writers, we developed this minimalist inspiration, journal. We hope it will inspire you to ensure that the book makes it out of your head (or heart) into your word processor.
Be Still
In a world filled with noise, pressure, and constant motion, Be Still: Meeting God in the Quiet is a timely invitation to slow down and rediscover the beauty of God’s presence. With warmth, biblical reflection, and gentle encouragement, Jackline Ingasian leads readers on a journey into the spiritual discipline of stillness—where anxious hearts are calmed, weary souls are renewed, and God’s voice becomes clearer. Through Scripture, personal insight, and practical guidance, this book helps believers move beyond routine devotion into a deeper, more intimate walk with God. It is a refreshing call to step away from distraction, embrace quiet trust, and encounter the peace that can only be found in Him.
Knowing All Of God
Do you know about God, or do you truly know Him?
In Knowing All of God, Jackline Ingasian invites you into a deeper walk with the Lord—a journey beyond surface-level faith into a vibrant, intimate relationship with Him. Through rich biblical insights, inspiring stories, and personal reflections, this book explores four essential pillars of Christian growth:
Thirsting after Righteousness – cultivating a hunger for God that transforms your heart.
Receiving the Energy of the Spirit – learning to live in daily dependence on the Holy Spirit’s power.
Submitting to His Lordship – surrendering every area of life to Christ.
Abiding in His Unending Love – experiencing the security and joy of God’s everlasting embrace.
Whether you are new in the faith or seeking to rekindle your spiritual fire, this book will stir your heart to press in for more of God. You will discover that true knowledge of Him is not a destination but a lifelong journey of surrender, transformation, and abiding love.
Prepare to be challenged, encouraged, and inspired to pursue the One who longs to be fully known.
What was the pivotal experience, season, or spiritual burden that made you realize, “This message needs to be written and shared with the world”?
Knowing All of God came out of my own journey of many years of sitting at the feet of Jesus. I have spent time seeking Him, listening to Him, and asking, “Lord, what do You want from me?” As I continued in that journey, I realized that knowing about God is very different from truly knowing Him. The more I sought Him, the more I understood that God desires a relationship with us that goes beyond religious activity. He wants us to know Him intimately, surrender to His Lordship, depend on the Holy Spirit, and experience the depth of His love. That personal journey became the burden behind this book. I wanted to invite others into the same journey—to move beyond a surface-level faith and discover what it means to genuinely know God. The book is built around four pillars that have become important in my own walk: thirsting after righteousness, receiving the energy of the Spirit, submitting to His Lordship, and abiding in His unending love.
Who did you keep in mind as you wrote Knowing All of God, and what specific heart transformation do you hope readers experience?
I believe this book is for anyone who desires to know God more deeply. It is for someone who may be new in their faith, but it is also for the person who has walked with God for many years and feels that they need to rekindle their spiritual hunger. My desire is that readers will not simply gain more information about God but will be drawn into a deeper relationship with Him. I want the reader to become more hungry for righteousness, more dependent on the Holy Spirit, more surrendered to Christ, and more secure in God’s love. Ultimately, I hope someone closes the book and says, “I want to know God more. I want to sit at His feet. I want to hear His voice and allow Him to shape my life.” If the book creates that hunger, then I believe it has fulfilled part of its purpose.
As you were writing, was there a specific theme, devotion, or lesson that became especially meaningful or personal to you?
The theme that stands out most to me is “Receiving the Energy of the Spirit.” It is meaningful to me because I have come to understand that we cannot live the Christian life through our own strength. There are things God calls us to do that require us to depend on the Holy Spirit. For me, this is not simply a theological concept. It is something I have experienced in my own journey. As I have sat at the feet of Jesus and sought to understand what He wants from me, I have realized again and again that I need the Holy Spirit to empower me, guide me, strengthen me, and help me fulfill what God has entrusted to me. Sometimes we try to serve God from our own strength, abilities, experience, or determination. But there comes a point when we have to say, “Lord, I need Your Spirit.” That is why this theme is particularly close to my heart. It reminds me that God’s assignment requires God’s empowerment.
How did the process of authoring this manuscript refine your own faith, shape your perspective, and transform your personal walk with God?
Writing this book made me examine my own walk with God. I could not write about intimacy with God without allowing God to examine my own heart. The process reminded me that knowing God is not a destination we arrive at. It is a lifelong journey of surrender, obedience, dependence, and love. It also deepened my understanding of the importance of sitting at Jesus’ feet. In ministry, there can be many things demanding our attention—people to serve, responsibilities to carry, programmes to coordinate, and assignments to complete. But before we can effectively serve from what God has given us, we need to continually return to His presence. The book therefore became more than something I was writing for other people. In many ways, God was also speaking to me through the very message I was writing. It reminded me that my ministry must flow from my relationship with God, not replace it.
For someone tuning in today who feels spiritually dry or distant, why should they pick up a copy of Knowing All of God at this exact season of their life?
I would encourage them to read it because this may be the season when God is inviting them to go deeper. Perhaps you have known about God for many years, but you are asking yourself, “Do I really know Him?” Perhaps your spiritual life has become routine, or you feel that your hunger for God is not what it once was. Or perhaps you are walking through a season where you need God’s presence more than ever. This book is an invitation to come back to the feet of Jesus. Do not read it simply to finish another book. Read it prayerfully. Allow the questions, Scriptures, and reflections to challenge you. Ask God, “What are You saying to me? What are You asking me to surrender? How can I know You more deeply?” My prayer is that as you read, you will develop a deeper thirst for God, learn to depend on the Holy Spirit, surrender more fully to Christ’s Lordship, and discover the security of His unending love. Because ultimately, knowing God is not about knowing more about Him. It is about knowing Him more deeply and allowing that knowledge to transform the way we live.
There is something beautiful about watching a person grow into the calling of God upon their life. Not simply watching them become more skilled, confident or accomplished, but seeing their heart mature, their convictions deepen and their willingness to be used by God become increasingly evident.
I have had the privilege of walking alongside Jackline Ingasian for the past six years, and I have watched her grow in ways that have been both encouraging and deeply humbling.
One of the qualities I admire most about Jackline is her pastoral grace. She has a genuine heart for people. She cares about their growth, their struggles and their journeys with God. Whether she is encouraging a writer, facilitating a writing class, supporting a colleague or attending to the many responsibilities entrusted to her at CLC Kenya, there is a tenderness in how she approaches people. She does not merely want to see people accomplish things. She wants to see them become who God has called them to be.
But perhaps the quality that has ministered to me most is her teachability. Jackline is remarkably malleable. She is willing to learn, to be corrected, to reconsider her approach and to grow. She does not always have to be right, and she does not treat correction as rejection. She has demonstrated a willingness to allow herself to be shaped, even when the process requires stretching beyond what is familiar or comfortable.
Over the years, she has generously placed me in the position of what I sometimes call a super-mentor. She has allowed me to speak into her life, challenge her, guide her and encourage her towards greater responsibility.
Yet, what she may not fully realise is that I have received something from her that I consider even more precious. Through Jackline, God has taught me of the importance of keeping my own heart malleable before Him. It is possible to become so accustomed to leading, teaching, mentoring and guiding others that we forget we, too, must remain students in the hands of our Father. We can become experienced in the things of God while quietly becoming less willing to be interrupted, corrected or reshaped by Him.
Watching Jackline has challenged me to remain teachable. To hold my experience lightly. To listen when God speaks, even through those I have been entrusted to mentor. To remember that spiritual maturity is not measured merely by how much we know, but also by how willing we remain to be transformed.
And I find that lesson particularly meaningful as I present this book. Knowing All of God is not simply another Christian book encouraging readers to pursue a deeper relationship with God. To me, it is also a reflection of the journey I have watched its author walk. I have seen Jackline wrestle with new responsibilities, step into unfamiliar assignments and gradually discover that God can accomplish much through a willing heart.
Her journey into authorship was itself unexpected. What began with an opportunity to facilitate a writing class eventually opened the door to co-authoring A Writer’s Journal and, now, writing this book. I have watched her encourage others to write while finding the courage and discipline to develop her own message.
That is one of the things I appreciate about this book. Jackline writes as someone who is still growing, still learning and still allowing God to work in her. She does not approach the reader as someone who has arrived at the fullness of spiritual understanding. Instead, she extends an invitation to keep pursuing God, recognising that there is always more of Him to discover.
The title, Knowing All of God, is an ambitious one. After all, who among us can claim to have exhausted the knowledge of an infinite God? Yet I believe the beauty of this book lies in that very tension. We are invited to pursue the God who has made Himself known to us, while remaining humble enough to acknowledge that our understanding of Him must continually deepen.
My prayer is that as you read, you will not only consider what you know about God, but also examine the condition of your heart before Him. Are you still willing to be taught? Can God challenge something you have believed for years? Can He redirect a plan you have carefully made? Can He use an unexpected person or an uncomfortable season to reveal something about Himself that you have not previously understood?
These are questions I continue to ask myself.
I am grateful to God for Jackline, for the privilege of mentoring her and for the lessons He has taught me through her life. I am equally grateful that CLC Kenya has been part of the environment in which her gifts have been nurtured and given room to flourish.
Jackline, as your publisher and mentor, I celebrate this milestone. But even more than celebrating the publication of another book, I celebrate the work God continues to do in and through you.
And perhaps that is the invitation I would like to leave with your readers as they turn these pages. Never become so knowledgeable about God that you are no longer willing to be changed by Him. May you remain soft in His hands, attentive to His voice and willing to follow wherever He leads.
