Intro to Week #4 Polly's Summer Study Book Club

Image
Hello Sweet Sistas! Here's the introduction video to Week #4 entitled, "To Find Satisfaction in God."  Wow! How about this quote from Beth Moore -- right off the bat on Day 1 -- "I believe lack of satisfaction is the hidden scandal of modern Christianity. Though we we would not think of admitting it, many Christians are not satisfied with Jesus."     Day 2 -- "God intends for  us to find satisfaction in Him--complete, lasting, soul-quenching, emptiness-filling satisfaction." Day 3 -- "You can easily recognize the signals the body give, but great wisdom lies in learning to discern the signals your spiritual nature gives." Day 4 --"Christians can be miserably dissatisfied if they accept Christ's salvation yet reject the fullness of a daily relationship that satisfies." Or what are your thoughts on Beth's comment on Day 5: "We need to find true satisfaction to fill our unmet needs. If we try to dislodge idols in our ow...

Hello Sistas! Here's the introduction to Week #3 of Beth Moore's book, Living Free! I pray you are being nourished by studying the word of God this summer. The theme of this week's material is "To Glorify God" and that is certainly our desire. May God be glorified by our willingness to stop our busyness of activities this summer to draw near to Him. May He strengthen, encourage, and bring us more and more joy in Him because we want to know Him better. For His glory...and our good. I pray even our own families will be richly blessed because we are seeking Him in this season! Please don't hesitate to make comments and/or ask questions on this blog. Just look below this video and see the 'Post A Comment' section. Go for it, Sistas! Love & blessings, Polly

Hey Sistas! Here is the intro and (hopefully) encouragement to help all of us to 'keep on keepin on' in the Word of God this summer! We need Him in every season! I pray God will use this six weeks of seeking God's face as an online community of sistas --- for His glory and for our good! Yes, may it be so, LORD!  Please feel free to make comments and ask questions -- no matter what week you are "in" as we march our way through Beth Moore's book, Living Free.   You may have a question that other sistas want an answer to, too! Or your comment may be words another sista needs to hear at that moment. We are the body of Christ! Let's build each other up so the light will get brighter and brighter! "Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt His name together!" (Psalm 34:3). With all His love in me that I can muster up, Polly

Hello Dear Sistas! Here we are in Week #1 of  study book club! Yay! I wanted to let you know I'm praying that God will be glorified by our efforts to seek Him in this six-week study! Please remember, the beauty of doing a book study online with a community of sistas is that it is a healthy and refreshing way to stay accountable and spiritually grounded during our very busy summer activities! Please feel free to make comments here and ask questions! We must stay close to our LIFEguard-- His name is JESUS! HE is our Loving Stronghold, Refuge & Deliverer! There is NO GREATER REFRESHMENT for us this summer than to dive into a book study that exposes deep, dark, tormenting strongholds such as fear and unbelief! When the darkness is brought to light -- we can expect restoration, redemption, renewal and revival...so let's look to God for that immeasurable grace and mercy to restore our souls with freedom and abundant life! (Day 1) On page 10, Beth Moore says, " Satanic st...
