Women At the Well Sessions

Even though this book was written in an American context, it applies to any believer. In an era where Christian culture is constantly selling God short on what He is worth, is it possible that God desires more from us than just a little of our time and 1/10th of our money? If He is the source of joy, then shouldn’t we be more joyful if we had more of Him? The real question we have to ask oursel...

For a Christian, prayer is an invocation or act that seeks to activate the relationship we have with our Heavenly Father. It establishes our surrender to our ever faithful, ever loving and trustworthy God. When we receive Christ into our hearts, we become a child of God and have the privilege of talking to Him in prayer at any time about anything. The Christian life is a personal relationship w...

The heavens and the earth were made to exalt God's glory. You and I were made made for His glory. Whenever we see the glory of God through his creation we are awed at His splendor and grandeur. But the real question is do we, the crown of His creation really understand who He is? Do we know His glory? Do we really know the God who created the universe, the Alpha and the Omega? As we explore the...

Those around us and those who we are constantly with, can attest to the real person we are. The know- it- all, hot tempered, nasty, stubborn, rebellious and utterly broken, raw, us. How can we invite Jesus to change the coarseness of our being and shape us to become more like him? Our surrender and willingness to hand over ourselves wholly to our heavenly father is the only way!

Who and what do we turn to when we want a quick fix? How many times have we looked in all the wrong places for love and acceptance? There is a constant desire to fix what's wrong. This chapter was a good reminder of how desperately we need Jesus and his blood to make us whole. Lysa reminds us that with Jesus, we are forever safe , forever accepted, forever held, completely loved and always invi...

Amidst life's unpredictable situations and circumstances we find ourselves stuck in deep messes. We find ourselves wanting to run away and disappear, wanting to hide and not come out. This chapter reminds that Jesus could have run away, but He chose to stay and fulfill His father's will. Running away is not the answer, seeking the Father's will and staying is. "Yet not what I will. but what y...

"Pain is the invitation for God to move in and replace our faltering strength with His"- Lysa TerKeurst We are reminded time and again through the study, if we place our hope and future in the hands of our unchanging, unflinching God who never leaves us or forsakes us, we'll find healing and freedom.

Situations force us to look at the negatives, sometimes we wonder 'why me God?' in these difficult moments, our understanding of God can be limited to us and our situation. Lysa states "Only when we seek to apply His revelations to our situations will we experience transformation. Transformation helps us more clearly see Jesus. And when we more clearly see Him, we can more clearly see the mirac...

The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. God is our refuge, and we can overcome temptation because of what Jesus did on the cross for us! Jesus conquered temptation by rebuking Satan with the scriptures. The Bible is our weapon and the word of God is our stronghold.

We are reminded by Lysa, to praise God, seek God, look to God, call to God, experience God, fear God, learn from God, honor God, draw near to God, and take refuge in God.

The story of this princess heroine is found in just two Bible verses (2 Kings 11:2 and 2 Chronicles 22:11). We often miss her as we read Scripture because she is easily overshadowed by the protagonist in the story. Her bravery, based on her faith in Jehovah, preserved David's lineage. God always places the right person, in the right place, at the right time for His purposes to be fulfilled!

Opportunity to share your thoughts and experiences so far in the study.

To be Set Aside is to be Rejected but to be Set Apart is to be Accepted by God. Can we give God the glory in the midst of Rejection? We learn from Hannah's life how to give God the glory through rejection and brokenness.
