Thank you to everyone for
sharing their honest responses during last night’s live Facebook Party. I know
it is hard and for this reason some may have been "holding back." I
do want to give everyone the space to share… This study and our time together
is a safe place.
The Between Session Personal
Study (the yellow pages) are really good this week if you need
some “go-to” Bible passages to read, reflect on, and keep fresh
in our hearts. We are challenged to choose two or three of the passages
and put them in your phone, on a card in your purse or wallet, or in a
file in your computer. When the battle against shame heats
up, read them, think deeply about them, and believe them! Those of you who have studied with me in the past know how much I love
“Verse-Mapping!” Try it with these verses. Here’s
the link for those who don’t know what I’m talking about - http://eboniez22.blogspot.com/2016/02/verse-mapping.html
