The cross is the most meaningful image I know. It reminds me of my helplessness and my hopefulness. I am so pleased to offer my newest journal which contains a series of nine cross paintings I did to portray the different ways it speaks to me. On the back of each one are my words pertaining to that particular cross. I hope this can be a continual reminder of the grace we did not deserve, but was so freely given.
INSIDE COVER PAGE :"The cross. It is an image that stirs the deepest sadness and the greatest joy simultaneously. Sadness for the brutal death that was underserved. Guilt laid upon the innocent. Joy for the hope-filled life that is also undeserved. Innocence laid upon the guilty. It was a simple structure designed for an agonizing death. It became a complex, multi-faceted image used as a path to joyful life. It represents to me hope, grace, freedom, promise, forgiveness, love. More good things than could ever be listed on the pages of a book. May the images in this journal stir you to think deeply on what the cross means to you. And may you be left with the deepest sense of gratitude in this life now as we wait longingly for the life to come. "

I purchased this beautiful journal as a gift for our retiring minister. We are filling with special memories of his 14!years serving our small church. It is a beautiful journal. Than you!
I was wanting a new journal for 2022, saw the crosses one, was so excited, it looked so perfect! When I received it, I was so thrilled!
I had ordered my Christmas cards from y’all in early November, had seen your leather journals then, it was exactly what I had wanted to get my husband…
Ordered him 2 soft covered notebooks
Waited on the leather journal, with big time regrets because of course we’re sold out when I got around to it….
Told him as soon as y’all get some you will let me know and then will order him one!
I absolutely love David Arms!, so blessed to have discovered him!
This journal is beautiful. I really love how it is divided by several more works of art and that the dividing pages are constructed out of very heavy card stock.
I’m trying now to think about how I want to use it.
I want this journal to be very special. The Cross has so much meaning behind it for me. Thank you for this awesome piece of art!
This was a gift for my best friend. I love the design of the journal, and she has used it often. I ordered it wrapped, and was very pleased with the wrapping and the card included. I received it very quickly, so even though I ordered rather late for the event, it arrived in plenty of time.
I bought this beautiful journal with the purpose of writing my favorite Scripture verses in it as I study. It is perfect! The artistry throughout is a huge blessing. Thank you for contributing joy in the journey.
The “Crosses Journal’s” I ordered were beautiful! I gave both of the Journals away and they loved them. I am so pleased with my Order and I look forward too seeing more work from David Arms! Thank You! Pamela Morgan

Beautiful. Very satisfied! Thank you.
I bought two of these beautiful books. Years ago I made journals for my daughters as they grew. I stopped when they still young. I decided to purchases these to start again filling them in with memories old ones and new ones. then give as christmas gifts. These cross journals are well made and beautifully and creatively designed. I look forwad to filling them in.
Love it, great quality of paper, nice pictures.
Original art that appeals to everyone. The scriptures with images I love. Thank you.
I purchased this for a friend who was recently diagnosed with cancer so that she could record God's faithfulness to her each day in order to have a tangible remembrance to reflect upon during her most difficult days. What a lovely item! The artwork is beautiful and the quality of the journal is the best I've seen. Well worth the money, in my opinion. The wrapping paper, ribbon and card that I chose for this gift did not disappoint. I am now not only a fan of Mr. Arms' art but am so pleased to have found a new and unique site for gift ordering! Thank you for blessing my friend and myself!
