I am beyond thrilled you decided to join me for the next six weeks. Are you ready to begin? Let’s get started!

Remember, this is YOUR Bible study which means you get to work at your own pace. But we have tons of help to keep you on track!

It would be great to record your answers to these in a study notebook or journal. Then you’ll have a record of how you’ve progressed and how God has worked in your life during the study.

And finally, we have a special “Let’s Chat” section where we’ll give you some questions to do on your own and/or write in the comment section here on the blog so we can learn from each other, share, and discuss.

Everyone who participates in the “Let’s Chat” by sharing about it in the comment section will be entered to win a FREE copy of Twelve Women of the Bible!

There are three parts to the “Let’s Chat” section. Here’s a description to explain each:
Observe — This will be a simple question that won’t require much digging to get the answer. Each person’s answer to this question will vary depending on their life and circumstance.

Bible — Here’s where we’ll be getting our Bibles out and digging into some of the verses and passages either referred to in the book or that go well with our study. This is also where you will often see some of my favorite Bible Study Skills from the past.

Stretch — You’ll find your Live-It-Out challenges here. We want these to stretch you beyond your normal comfort zone. We also invite you to share them on social media to show others and challenge them to Live-It-Out!

Remember to check this blog or your email tomorrow for more of what we'll be doing this week!

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to teach.  Do you have a favorite Bible Story or family tradition? A G

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
