Something Exciting is Coming to WitW in 2018!!
Hey Girls,
- Would you like to devote 2018 to building upon your faith and adopting a moment-by-moment lifestyle of worship?
- Have you ever wanted to read the Bible from cover to cover to discover all that's there for yourself?
- Would you like to be a part of a small group of women (1-6 others) who you can meet with each week to share, pray and grow together?
We have always prayed that Women in the Word would be a safe-haven where like-minded women from around the world could meet to study God's Word, share their thoughts, inspirations, prayer requests, and find all they need to fill up their "spiritual tanks" to go back out into the world once more and minister to all those that God brings into their lives each day!
We also believe God has helped us meet these goals and is now calling us to add a deep level of faith, support and accountability in the coming year!! These are exciting days, girls!!
Here's the scoop:
__A new study will begin on January 1, 2018! We'll be going through the iWorship Daily Devotional Bible (links below). Here's how the publishers describe this Bible:
The "Daily Devotional Bible" draws God's people into His amazing presence and equips them to live with greater power and joy. The special features and notes in this Bible will help you celebrate and experience a fervent passion for God in everything you do. The "Daily Devotional Bible" will build your faith and encourage you to adopt a moment-by-moment lifestyle of worship!
But any Bible can be used for this study! (We will publish the reading plan for those of you who choose to use your favorite Bible)__ Our Theme for 2018 is WORSHIP!
__ Monday - Friday we will publish and post a daily devotional on WitW for all to comment on and add their findings to.
__ Saturdays, we'll post our weekly memory verse. (Verses will follow the study.)
__ Sunday's focus will be solely on praise and worship! We'll post thought provoking questions to draw our thoughts to our awesome God and garner up a heart full of praise!
What will set this year's study apart from all the rest is that we are encouraging everyone to form "Koinonia Groups"of two - seven women to meet for a minimum of one hour a week to recite your memory verse, share prayer request and the things God has been teaching you, and to pray. You can do this,
- In person
- Over the phone
- Over the Internet through Messenger, Skype etc.
- Opening up another close group on Facebook just for your group
- or Email
We hope you'll be able to encourage others in your circle of friends to join you on this adventure, but please don't worry if you can't find anyone, for we will also be forming groups with those who are already members of WitW. (Just how cool would it be to find a kindred spirit thousands of miles away!?)
It's our prayer that you will fall in love with this Bible!! AND
with the Lord more and more next year!! These Bibles are older and one is out of print which makes them inexpensive when you find them online ( as low as $1.99). I also pray as you begin to check out the Bible and share your
excitement with others, you'll find others who will want to join you! Plus everyone is welcome to join WitW and get even more
from all the sharing that will be going on!
We're publishing our plans a bit early so that you can get a jump on ordering a Bible should you choose to do so. (I've
added the links to Amazon below, but there are other sites that also carry them.) The first is the newer version. I believe they
are pretty much the same except the cover, so if you have trouble
finding the older one, you can get the new version. BUT also remember you are free to use any Bible you prefer! (We will not profit off of any sale of the Bibles)
I have never been more excited about a New Year and study before!! I just know The Lord has great things in store for all of us!! So stay tuned! More information will be coming in the weeks ahead!!
Blessings,
sue
