I’m Mary Jane Humes and welcome to my corner of the ‘Net! I am so glad you are here.
Initially, I had planned that the site www.MaryJaneHumes.com would be a static website to showcase my Faith Series Devotional books. However, as I was writing long and detailed articles for another source, I wanted to be able to share my article with a larger audience. Somehow, what was supposed to be my static author website morphed into a growing blog!
If you are a woman who wants to learn more of God’s Word, explore some of the deep and fascinating things of Scripture, and enhance your personal Christian walk, you have come to the right place. This blog is to help you better understand and appreciate God’s Word. Some of my most popular articles include Circles of Closeness to Christ, Why Does the Catholic Bible Have More Books? and my article on Fire Breathing Dragons.
I only use the King James Version of the Bible. I take this verse from Ecclesiastes 8:4 literally, “Where the word of a king is, there is power” (KJV). Since some people believe the King James Version of the Bible is a bit difficult to understand, I explain the verses I use so you can easily comprehend God’s Word with all of its power.
Here are some of the things that I offer. Go to my Free KJV Scripture Printables page and take whatever you would like – totally free, no e-mail required.
Get my free 8-day devotional, Naaman’s Faith, an introduction to my Faith Series Devotional after you sign up to my bi-weekly newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time and keep the book.
Learn about my books, how they got started and read the first chapter here.
Prayer Journal!
Want a deeper and more organized prayer life? I personally write out my prayers in a prayer journal. This method works very well for me. So I created a low content prayer journal notebook designed for use over 30 days. You get to fill this out with your requests, praises, gratitude and more.
Each page is beautifully decorated with floral designs and precious KJV Scripture promises. Click on the picture to order yours today.
