Oluwabukunfiola “Bukie” Gbenle, a faith-driven women’s empowerment and transformation strategist known for promoting practical discipleship, has unveiled The Logos and My Rhema Journal. This two-part structured system is designed to help believers translate biblical teachings into daily practice.
Disclosing this recently, the author explained that the journal was created to close the gap between hearing the word and living it, moving Christians from information to transformation and from good intentions to deliberate discipleship. She said: “By the time Sunday service ends, many believers have heard a powerful word, yet by midweek the details are blurry and by the next Sunday the same cycle repeats. Pages get lost, notes scatter, insights fade. The real tragedy is not that we heard less, it is that we applied less.”
First Volume: Personal Bible Study and Spiritual Growth Edition
The first volume, titled the Personal Bible Study and Spiritual Growth Edition, centres on strengthening a believer’s private devotional life through a structured system. It combines sections for personal Bible study, Rhema documentation, prayer points, gratitude practices, self-examination, vision board, confessions, declarations and the use of spiritual gifts. She disclosed that the edition is not a finish-the-Bible-fast tool, but a be-transformed-deeply tool, with users encouraged to move at their own pace as long as growth and revelation are taking place.
Second Volume: Church Notes Edition
Complementing this is a second edition built for the church environment. The Church Notes Edition takes a full year’s worth of sermons, midweek services, conferences, prayer meetings, and retreats and brings them into one organised, purposeful space. According to Gbenle, what sets it apart is its insistence on application. Each entry creates room not just for notes, but also for personal reflection, action points, and next steps. This ensures that what is received on Sunday and all church-related events continue to shape decisions, character and daily living through the week. A year-end reflection section rounds it off, giving users a clear picture of how far they have come in their faith journey and what their next year focus should entail.
Mission Anchored in Transformation
Gbenle anchored the journal’s mission in the words of Evangelist Dwight L. Moody, who said: “The Bible was not given for our information, but for our transformation.” The series, she noted, were built to make that transformation practical, page by page and service by service.
