I’ve always loved a good planner. There’s just something about flipping to a fresh page, jotting down a to-do list, and adding a few color-coded highlights that makes me feel ready to take on the day—even if everything changes by lunchtime. But for a while, I felt this quiet ache underneath it all. My planner was full—appointments, errands, reminders—but somehow, it felt like something was still missing. I had space for dinner plans and grocery lists… but where was the space for prayer? For gratitude? For the verse I wanted to carry with me that week? It was one of those seasons when a planner wasn’t quite enough to help me invite God into my everyday. And that’s exactly where the idea for the Cover to Cover Companion Planner began.

And now? I get to finally share it with you.
It launches tomorrow—on July 24th at 10:00 AM EST—and my heart couldn’t be more expectant.

I didn’t want just another productivity tool. I needed something that helped me keep God close in the chaos—and I hope this becomes that space for you too.

He’s in the Middle of It All

The other day I was running late to school drop-off… again. One kid couldn’t find their shoes, another was suddenly starving, and I still hadn’t had coffee. My planner was sitting on the counter—open, color-coded, beautifully laid out—but for a moment, it didn’t feel like I was living any of it well.

But then I noticed something I’d added earlier that week: a digital sticker on that page that simply read,
“Serve with joy.”

It felt like God’s gentle nudge—right there in the middle of the cereal spills and lost shoes.

That sticker wasn’t just cute or decorative. It was a truth I had needed to plant—a reminder that these everyday moments are service. That packing lunches and finding missing sneakers and showing up again and again isn’t just a task list to conquer… it’s a way to love my family well. It’s a way to honor God with the responsibilities He’s placed in my hands.

That’s what I love about the Cover to Cover Companion Planner. It’s more than a place to plan—it’s a space that shifts my focus back to what matters. A quiet invitation to see God in the middle of my real life… and to remember that serving Him with joy doesn’t require a perfect routine.

Sometimes, it just takes one small reminder.
A little sticker.
A whisper of truth planted ahead of time, waiting for the very moment you need it most.

Because even when the schedule feels full—He’s right in the middle of it all.

Planning for God’s Glory, Not Just Productivity

One of my favorite parts of the planner is the daily pages.

Life moves fast—before 10 a.m., we’ve already thought about dinner, deadlines, laundry, and a dozen other things. When I used to look at my old planners, I’d just be reminded of how much I had to do that day. It was all tasks and to-dos—and that’s when I realized there were days when a planner wasn’t quite enough. I needed more than boxes to check off. I needed space to breathe, reflect, and meet with God in the middle of it all.

In the Cover to Cover Companion Planner, it invites you to take a moment to pause and jot down what’s stirring in my heart—maybe a verse I just read, or one I hope to read.

These pages don’t just help me keep track of my schedule; they gently lead me back to the Word. They shift my focus from “What do I need to get done today?” to “What would it look like to live today for God’s glory?”

If you’re new to digital planning, don’t worry. This planner was made to be simple and seamless—with clickable tabs, note sections, sermon pages, and space to pause.

You’ll need a digital planning app like Goodnotes or Notability on your iPad (or similar device), but once it’s loaded, it’s yours—a quiet, sacred space to:

• Choose a Scripture focus for your week
• Keep track of prayer and praise
• Write down what God is teaching you
• Reflect with gratitude
• Plan your week practically, without losing sight of what matters

A Final Word From My Heart

The Cover to Cover Companion Planner isn’t just a tool—it’s a gentle, steady invitation.
To slow down, remember and return to truth in the middle of your very real life.

I made this planner because I needed it myself. My old planner just wasn’t quite enough.
And now, starting tomorrow, I finally get to offer it to you.

Whether your days feel peaceful or packed, structured or scattered—I hope this becomes a space where you meet God again and again.

Because He’s not asking you to do more.
He’s just asking you to be with Him.
Right in the middle of it all.

xo,

Amanda

P.S. It is called the Companion Planner because it helps you organize the everyday responsibilities God has entrusted to you while the Cover to Cover Bible Journal holds the legacy of what He’s speaking through His Word. That’s why they are a great pair.
