This new bible study by Priscilla Shirer is just too tempting to pass up….so we’ll be reading Jonah: Navigating a Life Interrupted during the next few weeks. Some of you are completing the Ruth study, others are waiting for the New Beth Moore Study, and a few have expressed interest in this study of Jonah.
Jonah: Navigating a Life Interrupted – Member Book by Priscilla Shirer provides a personal study experience five days a week in this in-depth women’s Bible study. What do we do when God interrupts our lives? Many times, like Jonah, we run! In this Bible study, Priscilla redefines interruption and shows that interruption is actually God’s invitation to do something beyond our wildest dreams. When Jonah was willing to allow God to interrupt his life, the result was revival in an entire city. (source: Lifeway.com)
This is a 6-week study, so one week of study and will be followed by a Beth Moore study. This study of Jonah begins on August 3, 2010 so order your workbooks now if you’d like to participate. We’ll post updates once a week for the study. You can purchase optional audio or video segments from the Lifeway.com

My name is Julia & I live in Birmingham, AL. I love Prisicilla Shirer studies, but have never done one online. I am looking forward to getting into Jonah & expericing my first “virtual” study!!
Jennifer Deffendall is my name. I live in San Antonio, Tx. Just finishing Ruth. Already bought the book last night. No blog as of know. My navigation skills is decent, I had a GPS system but it died. I am still learning where I live at it is a big city.
My name is Sue and I’m from Terre Haute, Indiana, 75+ miles southwest of Indianapolis.
1. My navigation skills are pretty good as I drove to Portland, Oregon, in the 1990′s by myself and back (with no GPS). I also go to Greenwood, Indiana, to see my sister, 95+ miles one way.
2. My fishing story is that my family and I went to Madison, Wisconsin, to visit my dad’s family. I was around 10 years old when we went boating and fishing. My uncle Bob CAUGHT A HUGE FISH. It landed in the boat on me and SCARED me to death. To this day I don’t fish; I just swim like one. I also can row a boat backwards LOL.
And this is a story for another day on rowing my boat backwards.
I just got my book today and am anxious to start. The only fishing story I can think of took place when I was a kid. I caught an eel on my line and thought it was a snake. I threw my pole into the water and ran.
I just found this website yesterday and was excited to find an online Bible study so I ordered the book right away. I’m used to taking other kinds of classes online, so I think this will be a good fit for me. I live in Washington (the state) in the Seattle area. I am definitely directionally challenged, so mapquest is my friend, but I even have to print out the reverse directions to find my way back home.
Good Morning! I am a stay at home mother to 2 little girls. Jayla is 3 and Julie is 19 months. I am attending online classes and looking for other inspiring women to connect with. Front Royal, VA
A story I have for the group is when I left my corporate job to raise my babies. We were making more than enough money to raise them while working, however, I felt a little whisper in my ear to go to them. That’s exactly what I heard. I couldn’t be more happier, but I was scared. So, the story of Jonah is near and true to my heart! I look forward to chatting with everyone!
