GSBC – Introductions

Good morning and happy Thursday! Can you believe March is almost over? For those of you going through deployments, that’s one more month you can almost check off in your countdown for seeing your honey home!

Today is the day I said we’d start introductions for our God Strong Book Club (GSBC). This book club will not be the full Bible study – think of it more or less as a Cliff Notes version of the study. The study has a lot of additional content in it; our purposes for this book club is simply to discuss GOD Strong and what God is teaching each of us personally about what it means to lean on His strength and not our own. If you would like to do some additional Bible reading and journal writing, feel free to check out the individual guide you can use.

Each Thursday through the end of April, I will offer a new post discussing two chapters of the book. I’ll ask a couple of discussion questions for you to comment and offer your thoughts on, and then I’ll also give you your assignment for the following week. Sound good?

If you get behind in reading or are late in getting the book, don’t fret! Just catch up as you can. You can still participate in commenting and answering the questions. And maybe along the way, I’ll throw in some door prizes. What book club wouldn’t be complete without a couple of door prizes, right? :)

To make it easy for you to find each Thursday post for the book club, I will set up a GOD Strong Book Club page located under the GOD Strong tab with a link to each blog post.

Your assignment for next Thursday, April 1, is to be sure you have a copy of GOD Strong (you can order it from Amazon, BN, CBD, or any of your local Christian bookstores).

So let’s pull up our virtual recliners and sofas, ladies, and get to know each other a bit better! Please post in the comments the following: Your first name, your age, what branch of military your husband is in, if you have kids, military installation/state, and what you hope to learn as you read the book and we go through this book club together. And for fun, since we’re on the topic of strength next week, share what your favorite (or maybe not so favorite) workout/exercise is! Can’t wait to read these!

I believe God’s plan for us is not for us to flail about on our own, trying to figure everything out by ourselves. He wants us to lean on Him for strength and peace and He also wants us to connect with others and have community – praying and supporting one another in this incredible journey He’s placed us in. I can’t wait to talk with you more about what it means to be GOD Strong!

Now don’t be shy – let’s introduce ourselves!

GOD Strong Book Club

Many of you know I’ve been leading the group study of GOD Strong at my church with a group of dear military wives and I’ve had several of my military wife friends on Facebook asking when I might do something online.

Sooo… if you have been reading GOD Strong or are planning to, please join me April 1 as we hold a virtual book club here at Wives of Faith and discuss together what it means to lean and depend on God’s strength and not our own.

Each Thursday beginning April 1st through April 29, I will post some thoughts and a few questions for us to discuss on the blog. THIS Thursday (March 25), I will post an Introduction to the book and you will be invited to comment and share if you’re participating.

Hope you’ll join me!
