Welcome to the Summer Online Womens Bible Study! This is one of our most popular bible studies, because many church and small group studies have disbanded for the summer and we know women want to continue their daily bible study. We’re leading two bible studies this summer. You are welcome to participate in one study or both, the choice is yours. Pray over your decision and see where the Lord leads you. One of the books we’ll be reading during our six-week bible study is Brave: Honest Questions Women Ask by Angela Thomas. During this womens bible study, we’ll dig into six common issues we’re afraid to address. Rather than continuing to live lives guided by our insecurities, fears, and desires of other people, we’ll live a life of truth based on scripture. Join us in this six week online study and explore the truths of God.
Please join us once a week on Monday as we have an online discussion of Brave: Honest Questions Women Ask. You’ll read your workbook at home each day, answer the workbook questions, and then join us on Monday’s to participate in a group discussion. There is no set time for the discussions, just show up and participate! We recommend you register for the Womens Bible Cafe by email so you’ll know when the discussion has started.
About the Brave: Honest Questions Women Ask Bible Study (from Lifeway.com)
This Bible study for women looks at the heart of what women are thinking and feeling. Angela speaks to participants about deep feelings that all women have at one time or another. She looks boldly at some of the fears and struggles of being a woman, and she helps us see how we can be brave in the face of those challenges. It takes a brave woman to ask these questions and dig into these topics alongside other believers. We’ve all got insecurities, flaws, and struggles that we’re afraid to address. But if we can be brave enough to raise the questions, God will answer us. You’ve got questions. God’s got answers. Be brave. Ask.
You need to have a copy of the member book in order to participate in the study with us. We will start reading week one on July 11, 2011

*Characterize your life in this present season using ONE WORD. *Impatient
I just recently married my best friend, moved to Salt Lake City for my husband’s job, and have been trying to stay focused and patient on the job search. I miss my friends and family so much.
*Share a specific goal you have for being in this bible study.* Understanding God’s timing & taking on the new role of ‘wife’ with grace. I am really looking forward to putting HIM first and finding focus and peace in the word — this is my first online Bible study, really looking forward to learning, praying and sharing encouraging words with a group of wonderful, brave, godly women! Be blessed
Hi everyone! I’m Sarahlinn from Lewistown, MT. I know that I am a few days late in starting, but I hope that that’s ok. I am really excited as this is my first online Bible study. I have done one other Angela Thomas study before and I really enjoyed it. Praying that God will use this as a catalyst in my life to get me moving forward on His path!
Hi I’m Angie and YES, I am completely overwhelmed with trying to acoomplish being a mom, wife, friend, sister, daughter, fitness queen, avid reader, nurse, cook, cleaning lady, budget-guru and Christian! HELP! I’m getting started a bit late, but I can’t wait to dig in!!
This is my first time to do an online study, so I’m a bit lost. Do I just log on to the site on Monday and follow the discussion thread? And I noticed some of the women are posting answers to questions~like their blessings right now and their goals for this study. Is there a link for that or are we just typing it into the thread?
Also~I forgot to mention I am from Arkansas and have a blended family. As Ron Deal says, we are slowly cooking! We have 4 kids~12,10,9 and 9. (Two of them are twins.) Our lives are extremely busy and lately I am letting it make me a little CRAZY! I do feel insecure and like I’m not as good at being a mother and wife and Christian and friend. I feel like I’m disappointing a lot of people in my life because I’m not DOING enough! I’m ready to let God guide me through these feelings of frustration and insecurity.
If you subscribe to the site by email, you’ll get updates when new articles are added for the bible study. On Monday we post a group discussion for the week. If you look at the end of each article, we have a list of group questions. You can answer one or as many as you want.
