 Becoming a Woman of Purpose:  A Bible Study

All of us wonder, at one time or another, who we are and why we're here. While society emphasizes wealth, success, and the pursuit of pleasure, the truth is that we are created by God in His image, and our fulfillment is found in pursuing His purposes for us.

If you've been striving towards goals that just don't seem worthwhile anymore-and your "success" leaves you feeling unsatisfied and unfulfilled-this book will give you the perspective you need to meet each day with a sense of anticipation and hope.

With Scripture passages, insights from the author, and inspiring quotes from Christian thinkers and writers, Becoming a Woman of Purpose will guide you to a better understanding of God's intended purposes for Himself, for us as His people, and for you as His unique creation. As you grow toward genuine peace and fulfillment, you'll learn the joy of loving God and others, waiting on Him with hope, trusting Him through suffering, serving Him with reverent fear, and fulfilling His purposes.

"It is in comprehending the purposes of God that you will find the true, eternal purpose for your life," writes Cynthia Heald. "It is my hope that this study will be the catalyst for you to understand God and His purposes in a fresh way."

 Bad Girls of the Bible and What We Can Learn From Them

Jezebel and Delilah have plenty to teach contemporary Christian women, according to Bad Girls of the Bible and What We Can Learn from Them. In this self-help book, Liz Curtis Higgs tells fictionalized, contemporary stories based on the lives of biblical characters including Eve, Potiphar's Wife, and the Woman at the Well. In verse-by-verse commentary, Higgs summarizes each life's lessons and provides a list of questions for personal consideration or group discussion. The overall message of each chapter is the same: "Good Girls and Bad Girls both need a Savior. The goodness of your present life can't open the doors of heaven for you. The badness of your past life can't keep you out either." In its effort to turn readers' minds heavenward, Bad Girls draws a distinction between fun and joy. Associated with "fleshly pleasures," fun "is temporary at best; it's risky, even dangerous, at worst." Joy, on the other hand, is found in God's "gift of grace." Perhaps the book's greatest weakness is its inability to see that "fun," in many lives, is a holy and necessary means of attaining "joy."

Calm My Anxious Heart:  A Woman's Guide to Contentment

God's mercies are new every morning! His faithfulness is great! Yet how easy as we walk through our days to forget.

Having a Mary Heart in a Martha Word:  Finding Intimacy with God in the Busyness of Life

Updated with a new 12 week companion Bible study, Joanna Weaver's popular book shows women how to blend intimacy with Jesus and service for Him.

An invitation for every woman who feels she isn't godly enough...isn't loving enough...isn't doing enough

The life of a woman today isn't really all that different from that of Mary and Martha in the New Testament. Like Mary, you long to sit at the Lord's feet...but the daily demands of a busy world just won't leave you alone. Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him...yet you struggle with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy.

Then comes Jesus, right into the midst of your busy Mary/Martha life-and he extends the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters of Bethany. Tenderly he invites you to choose "the better part"-a joyful life of "living-room" intimacy with him that flows naturally into "kitchen service" for him.

How can you make that choice? With her fresh approach to the familiar Bible story and its creative, practical strategies, Joanna shows how all of us-Marys and Marthas alike-can draw closer to our Lord, deepening our devotion, strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy.

When Godly People Do Ungodly Things

Based on the best-selling book with the same title, the first section of this seven-week study is a warning to believers, while the second section shows women how to prepare for attacks by the Enemy. The third section is directed to those who have been snared by seduction, and compassionately points the way back to God. With 1 Samuel 12:20–25 as a guide, Christians can arm themselves against temptation and learn how to help other fallen believers.
