Thank you for being part of the Becoming Minimalist Community.
I’m writing today to let you know about something new I am doing.
It is not directly tied to minimalism, but it comes from me. So this seems like the right place to announce it.
Three years ago, I began publishing faith-based devotionals, once a week, on my personal Facebook profile.
I decided recently email is a better platform to deliver those weekly devotionals. For one, not everyone is on Facebook. And more than that, Facebook controls unilaterally what posts get distributed and what do not. Email provides opportunity to connect directly with those who want to read the articles.
So, Easter weekend 2023, I launched The Focus on Faith Newsletter.
Here’s a brief description:
This world is full of distraction—worries, riches, pleasures, just to name a few. Keeping our hearts and minds focused on God requires consistent and intentional action.
The Focus on Faith Newsletter is designed to help you do that.
Every week, I send one email that includes a passage of Scripture to meditate on and a 5 minute Christ-focused devotional—intentionally written to keep our hearts inspired and our minds motivated to live for God.
If you want to receive my weekly, Christian, faith-based devotionals, you can sign up here. The emails are delivered on Wednesdays and currently received by over 15,000 people.
If not, no worries. You will see no change in the content or subject matter here on Becoming Minimalist where it has always been my desire to inspire people to own less and live more—regardless of their faith or nonfaith background.

Joshua your devotionals have been spot on in speaking (cutting) right to my heart. I love that the word of God is a double edge sword. Thank you for speaking the hard truths and for bringing conviction. God bless you!

Oh I didn’t know you were a Christian but at some point in my reading of articles, I had wondered. I’m not sure what made me think that maybe you were, but I’m glad to hear you are a follower of Christ. I think minimalism fits well with living out God’s commands to us-helps us to not pursue the many idols that our culture holds, and keeps us from coveting and storing our treasures on earth. To God be all the glory for giving us a greater treasure! He is risen!
Meg says
Amen Friend!
