There is nothing we love more than sharing stories that explore the intersections of real life and God’s promises. We love leaning in close to hear a sister whisper about the hard parts of her story and how she’s seen God pour out grace in unexpected ways. We love growing together as a community who understands that God’s Word is our anchor in life’s storms, our light in dark places, and our guide to a joy-filled life of purpose.
With this in mind, it is with MUCH excitement that we announce our first online Bible study using the (in)courage Devotional Bible!
We’re calling this the Women of Courage Online Bible Study because we believe that is who we are and who we are becoming as we walk ever closer with Jesus.
Starting February 1, we invite you to join an army of women as we journey through God’s Word, meet twelve incredible women of courage straight from Scripture, and dig into three themes from the (in)courage Bible that will meet you in the grit and grind of everyday life. There will be interactive discussions, videos from our devotion authors, and more!
Here’s what you need to know:
1. There is no cost to study with us, but each person will need a copy of the (in)courage Devotional Bible. You’ll also need to sign up to officially join the study — just click here to register.
2. The study starts February 1 and will run for twelve weeks.
3. We will be going through three of the Bible’s reading plans together — Better Together, Friendship on Purpose, and Imperfect Hospitality.
4. The study will take place in a Facebook group and will consist of discussion, weekly videos, women of courage deep dives, and fun surprises along the way. When you sign up you’ll receive a link to the Facebook group in your welcome email.
5. There will also be a weekly email recap sent out, so if someone does not have Facebook, they will still be able to access the videos. Share this page with your Facebook-less friends so they can join the study with you!
We can’t think of a better way to dive into 2019 than by reading God’s Word with friends! This is where women are changed, empowered, and set free! This is how God equips us to courageously live out our calling as His daughters — by allowing Scripture to sink deep into our hearts and the Holy Spirit to transform our lives, one day at a time. Digging into Scripture together — with real-life friends and sisters from around the world — makes it that much sweeter. We so hope you’ll be a part of this special online Bible study — sign up here!
Invite a friend, grab a copy of the (in)courage Devotional Bible, and get ready for God to do big things. We can’t wait!
Exciting!!! Looking forward to this Bible Study.
I missed the digital special, any chance you might run the 2.99 special again??
Yah, Joan! We’re so glad you’re going to join us! So, Kindle deals are influenced by the good folks at Amazon and our Bible’s publisher, so we don’t have any say in when it will go on sale again. But when it does, we will DEFINITELY let our (in)courage community know about it!!
When I input my email, it tells me to input a valid email. I’ve had this email since I was elementary school. And I did input it correctly into the box.
Becky,
I love Bible studies. You learn so much more about God’s word & the characters. I’ve learned that God can use mess ups to do His work. Looking forward to meeting new women also!
Blessings 🙂
Oh, Beth, thank God that is the truth! He doesn’t use perfect people or perfect circumstances to accomplish His purposes — that’s one of my favorite things about God’s Story and grace too! I’m so looking forward to having you a part of this study!
This is awesome, so excited to join.
My personal Bible study is where I really learned how to be along with God, and it’s done wonders for building my relationship with him.
Fellowshipping with my sisters in Christ though sounds AWESOME! I love the way you guys are living out the gospel through your ministry and encouraging others to do the same. May God continue to bless you guys, thanks again!
Thank you so much, Berni! I’m encouraged by your words this morning and can’t wait to dive into the Word together!
This sounds AMAZING!!
I started a Brave Women Series on my website back in early Fall and the responses from people who read the different women’s stories has been incredible. I really think there are few things as empowering as women bravely sharing their hearts and lifting one another up.
I will look into this! Would love to be a part of it.
Becky
“there are few things as empowering as women bravely sharing their hearts and lifting one another up.” YES! This exactly, Becky! I love that you’re doing this in your community! We’d love to have you join us here too. xx
I’m so excited for this study!! I love the in-courage bible already and can’t wait to see what’s in store with the bible study.
Woohoo! Your excitement makes us excited!
Will the videos be closed captioned to those who prefer not to go on Facebook? Thank you.
Carrie, we’re looking into it! I’ll get back to you when we hear back from our tech team. Thanks for your interest!
Hi Carrie! I wanted to let you know that we WILL be providing a closed caption option on all the videos for the Women of Courage Online Bible Study!! Woohoo! I sure hope you’ll join us!
THANK YOU! IT is very much appreciated!
You’re so welcome! We’re grateful for you bringing the need to our attention!
Thank you for providing a way for those without Facebook to participate.
You’re welcome! xx
I don’t have Facebook will not have it. Don’t like. But would like to do the study. I live in Northern Ireland. I can’t get hold of the Bible you need for the study over here. So I can’t sign up for it over here. Its says US is the only place I can get the study Bible. Do you really need it to do the study. Plus can you let me know how I get it in Northern Ireland how much it would cost. With postage. If too deer I would not be able to afford it. Could not then sign up for the Bible study. Which I so love to do. If you need the Bible for the study. Can you please let me know. Thanks Dawn
Hi, Dawn! You can get the (in)courage Devotional Bible on DaySpring.com and they do ship internationally. I don’t know what the rate to your specific location would be, but if you add the Bible to your online shopping cart and enter your address you could find that information. All the (in)courage Bibles are located here: https://www.dayspring.com/in-courage. The study is designed around both the Scriptures and devotions in the three custom reading plans in the (in)courage Bible. So you can certainly sign up for the study without the Bible and enjoy the weekly emails since you’re not on Facebook, but the content won’t be nearly as meaningful if you’re not reading the daily devotions from the (in)courage Bible. We love having international sisters in our community. I really hope you’re able to join us!
I’ve had the (in)courage Bible for a few months and am loving it. So relevant in my journey.
I just signed up for the online study. However, I do not have a Facebook account. I read that a recap will be in an email. But I was wondering if this will stop any interaction with others as well?
Hi, Shanna!
Yah! We’re so glad you’re loving your (in)courage Bible! The community interaction and daily discussions will take place in the Facebook group, so if that part of the Bible study is important to you, then perhaps consider signing up for Facebook and just using your account for this group! You’ll still get the videos and recaps in the email, so if Facebook doesn’t work for you, you could recruit a friend or two to do the study too and then get together weekly to talk about what you’re learning. In other words, I think the richest experience will happen in the Facebook group, but please don’t let that be a deterrent from participating! Getting into God’s Word is by far the most important thing. 🙂
Hope that helps!
I just want to say that the (in)courage Bible is stunningly BEAUTIFUL! I’m very excited about the Women of Courage Online Bible Study! I’m all signed up and can’t wait to get started. Thank you so much for offering this and thank you for this beautiful community of Sisters in Christ! I’ve been a long, long time reader of your devotionals and they’ve blessed me tremendously! ❤
Beloved! This comment makes us feel so loved! Thank you. We’re so grateful you’re here and will be part of our Women of Courage study!
Hi Ladies,
My name is Kathy. I’m excited to do the online bible study. I am a caregiver for my mom and I really don’t get a chance to go out much. So thank you for offering the study. I don’t have the Bible yet would love to win one I do have a question. Does this Beautiful Bible comes in a larger print ? Some of these small prints are just killers on the eyes. I’m not old but I do wear glasses
Thank you for your time. Looking forward to the study and getting back in the race for The Lord. Blessings to you all.
Hi, Kathy! I’m so glad you’ll be able to join us in this Bible study while caring for your mom. The Bible text is a custom font that has been designed for maximum legibility. The size equivalent is around 10, but the legibility and reading experience is higher. You can sign for a free sampler from the (in)courage Bible here. The layout is exactly the same. https://aws.incourage.me/bible
Enjoyed the first 4 weeks. I have the Bible, but have not received anything for the rest of the 12 week study.
Tried signing up again, response was an email was on the way, but nothing came. Did I get lost? Sure hope not, it’s been good. Thanks. Carol Foose
Carol, we’re so glad the first four weeks in the Better Together reading plan were meaningful to you! Yah! Our Monday email is just a little delayed today, but it’s coming! It will the Friendship on Purpose reading plan for March and all your reflection questions for the week. So hang tight. It’s on its way. Thanks so much for being a Woman of Courage with us!
