One of the exciting things about this new book (I think, anyway) is the Bible study that goes along with it. I started out wanting to put together something simple that a military wives group could do together as they read the book – a few discussion questions, a couple of scriptures. I had no idea when I started writing it, though, that it would turn into a full-fledged Bible study! But that’s what God laid on my heart to share and there is quite a bit of extra material in the study that wasn’t in the book.
Right now, the study is FREE and available on my web site. When designing this study, I wanted to make it super easy for anyone to do. You DO NOT have to have a theology degree to teach this! In fact, you’re not even really teaching. You’re facilitating – a fancy word for keeping the discussion going. Everything is written out in the study and can be read out loud and there are plenty of questions posed to get some good conversation going for each of the chapters.
Here’s a sample of the first session – let me know what you think!

Hi Sara, I am so excited about your new book! I looked through your pages here, and it is so interesting. God has been nudging me to start a military wives ministry, and last year I approached our pastor about it. He was very supportive, just cautioning me that the work and commitment would be huge and that I would need to be able to commit to the time for prep and needs outside the study itself. I let go of the idea because Paula and I were working on we serve too! books and still are nearing the end of the process on book 3. I don;t know the timing, but Sara, that desire is there again, and I know that at some point your materials will be what I use. Thank you for making this resource available, so that others, who love God and our military, can do it without reinventing the wheel!I hope you will be blessed with much success!Kathleen
I was so excited about your book that I downloaded for my Kindle. Your stories will resonate with readers! I’m only on chapter 2 and already encouraged to fidn my strength in God instead of my own efforts. Looking forward to being on your Street Team!
