Breathe

About 6 weeks ago some of the ladies at church began meeting at my house on Tuesday nights at 6pm for a Bible Study. However...this isn't anything like any women's bible study you've ever done before....

1. There is no workbook...Why assign homework if it stresses us out to the point that we don't enjoy the study?

2. Ladies of ALL ages are attending....I wanted a variety of perspectives and experiences to all come together and mingle in my living room :)

3. There are no "fill in the blanks" flip charts, videos, acronyms, or matching questions. 

For our study, we're all reading one chapter of the book each week and then coming together to talk about it - and how its changing us. We're getting to know one another in an environment where we can be encouraging - where we can help carry one another's burdens to Jesus.  Its a study for the hassled. worried. hurried. and stressed among us. (Go ahead 'fess up....you fall into one of those categories!)

Check out Breathe: Creating Space for God in a Hectic Life by Keri Wyatt Kent. You can get it on Amazon for cheap. Keri's writing style is very conversational and full to the brim with real life examples you will relate to. This study will touch your heart and remind you that your value comes not from what you do but from who you are. - You are a beloved child of God.  

Let me know if you like it!
