OK, Sisters! Let’s hear it! Who wants to participate? IT’S TIME FOR ROLL CALL.
Here’s what you do:
*Enter ONE COMMENT PER PERSON so that we can tell from the number of comments exactly how many are participating. If you’re overseeing a small group through our blog discussion, please ask each participant to sign up separately. It will only take a few moments and will make the list so much more fun and far easier to read. If you invited a friend to participate but she doesn’t know how to post a comment yet, sign up for her then take her through AJ’s tutorial (see previous post) so she can learn to do it on her own from this point forward. Remember that we moderate all comments here so please don’t sign up twice unless you still don’t see yours posted the next day.
*In your comment, give your…
First Name
City, State (or Nation! We have so many Canadian Siestas, you know!)
Age decade (20’s, 30’s, 40’s, etc.)
Single or Married
If this happens to be the first time you’ve ever participated in this community, let us know! You are so welcome here. You are also under no pressure. This is strictly to enrich your sweet life, not to add one more interminable thing to your schedule. In the weeks to come, add a comment when you want. Otherwise, just enjoy perusing the insights and discussions of others as often as you like.
Today is roll call for our book discussion then this coming Thursday, February 11th, I’ll give your first reading assignment and post your first week’s questions. You’ll have all week to post your answers through a comment so don’t panic if you ordered a book and it hasn’t come yet. It won’t be hard to catch up. Again, if you don’t feel like you have anything to add that week, no big deal! The more we limit our answers to the questions that particularly resonate with us, the richer our commentary will be.
You guys are such a blast. I can’t wait to take this journey with you. You were such a huge inspiration that it’s fitting. To those of you who are joining us for the first time in order to participate in a “book club” experience, we are thrilled you are here. Jump in!
I’m crazy about you. Let’s dump a bad friend, Girls.

I'm starting late but looking forward to this book. Insecurity is a major for me right now. I have been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome due to finding my mother in law dead on 9/16/2009. Insecurity is just one of my symptoms. Thank you for God's perfect timing.

I'm slow in knowing this was a possibility for me! So, I am excited,,,,,I'm almost done reading "So Long Insecurity", and realize once again, yes, I have insecurities, but didn't know they were mostly rooted in fear. I figured that out as I read one of the later chapters.
Doesn't fear ring true for most insecurities? I'm afraid to not do what God calls me to do but in the same moment afraid to do what He calls me to do. Anybody else no what I mean?
Blessed to be here. 🙂

I'm joining late but I'm working hard to catch up with assignments. I think God designed this with me in mind.
Hi! I am joining late too! But SO pumped to be here…just read chapter one online and will be going out to purchase the book when my husband comes home (too close to nap time now to take the kiddos out!)

This is my first comment and my first study to follow with a group but not my first encounter with Beth who I have come to love dearly, you have helped me in so many ways I can't begin to express my thanks and I'm looking forward to this study. I also want to tell Amanda and Melissa you both have made an huge impression on my life as well….But I owe God all the Glory for putting all of you in my path … May God continue to bless you all… And P.S. Beth, has God impressed you to do a Mother Daughter study?…haha… I can wish and pray.
Kristine here. I'm 42, single and looking forward to blogging with my sisters in this journey.

This is my first time joining this blog but I have been part of many BM bible studies! They have really impacted my life and the women I study with have also. I am so excited to be a part of this group and know this message is being put into my life through God's amazing grace! I am so blessed!
Oh and I am sorry I am late..have been in transition recently and am just now settled back at home for a few months.

First time for me. Thanks.
I am Barbara in Medford and I have only read the first chapter because I had trouble finding the right blogspot in which to sign in. Anyway, I loved the first chapter and will catch up probably today. The verses are fantastic and I want to memorize some soon to keep in my heart and mind when I feel so insecure. Battling this insecurity for 64 years!
