Looking for a Women's Bible Study?

If you are searching for a Women's Bible Study for the Fall semester or are interested in taking a closer look at the women mentioned in the Gospels, check out my book, THE WOMEN WHO KNEW HIM.

 

In case you haven’t seen a copy of the book, there are discussion starters at the end of each chapter/story which will hopefully be a springboard to additional questions and discussion. With 13 chapters/stories in the book, it will nicely cover 13 weeks from a start in early to mid-September and ending in early December.

I have printed below the discussion starters from the story of Simon’s mother-in-law.

·                    Grief was a central part of Miriam’s life prior to meeting Jesus. Discuss the manner in which you or family and friends have dealt with such grief.

·                    Miriam questioned whether she was good enough to be admitted to paradise/heaven. What are your thoughts about her feelings?

·                    When Miriam discovered that Simon and Andrew were leaving their business to fish for men, she dreaded another change in her life. How do you deal with changes that are thrust upon you? If your reactions to such changes are negative, what steps might you take toward a more positive outlook?

·                    Worry can be a crippling emotion. What do you worry about? Jesus plainly stated that we need not worry, but how do we prevent that mind-set?

·                    Think of a friend who reminds you of Hannah. What characteristic(s) of hers do you appreciate most, and why?

 You can look at the book by going to my website at http://diehl2360.wix.com/pat-diehl (Ctrl-click) and click on Book Purchase. Then click on the Amazon link under the second flower which will take you directly to the book site. You can read a sizeable chunk of chapter One as well as look at the Table of Contents. (If you use the book for a Bible study this Fall, I would urge you to save chapter 1 until December since that is the story of Mary, Jesus’ mother.)J

I just checked Amazon and they’re selling THE WOMEN WHO KNEW HIM at a 10% discount with free shipping on orders over $25. So if you’re planning to order something from Amazon anyway, what a deal!
