Hey friends! Just a quick update! We’re getting a lot of questions in the comments about logistics of how everything works like how the video driven study works, where you can purchase the videos, how much they’ll be, if you need to to the study alone or in a group, how to purchase the book and etc. Be looking for a post soon on each of those details! I promise we’ll do our best not to lead you astray. In the meantime, purchasing your workbook is top priority! You can find a link to the LifeWay website right below the video. Until further notice, I hope that helps! We’re so grateful you’re excited! And we’re excited, too!

Oh what an incredible answer to prayer!!!!! Just this morning, I was thinking/praying about what was I going to do to be in Bible Study this summer. I had gotten behind on recording my scripture memory and was about to just “forget about it”, but I was prompted to use Ps 121 which I worked to memorize years ago, but had gotten rusty. As I was entering the verses (which really it doesn’t matter to me if they still count toward SSMT), I came across this post. WOW! Praise God.
One reason I realized how rusty I had become on this Psalm, is because I was trying to recite it to myself the very day this blog was posted. Why do I know that? Well I had surgery that day and prayed it for myself and my Pastor read it for me. This is so incredible to me, because I think my situation, from what I remember, was similar to Beth’s a few years ago, when she shared about some health issues and the surgical consent said one thing with lots of other possible this’s and that’s because of family histories and blood tests. It was a little scary, to say the least. And thank you Lord, that my path this at this particular time is cancer free. And then, our sermon this week at church was about the Psalms of Ascent.
Sorry this is a long post-just had to tell someone.
I’ve never participated in the siesta bible study. How do I sign up and get the updates?
This is also my first attempt to do anything interactive online…please help me get started
This will be my first online bible study. Where do we sign up and how do we log on the day of the study? Thanks in advance. I look learning about the word of God from both Priscilla and Beth. I am excited.
I am so excited that I can’t remember if I have already responded or if I need to!!! We are going to do a small one with a couple of the girls during our break at church!! I am so excited that we are not taking a break!!! Thank you so much for doing this! Got my book and ready to go!!
Cant wait!
PLEASE please give us some details! I am trying to announce this at church but have NO idea how it works, what I need to do to get prepared to have a group at my home, etc. We have ordered the GIDEON books, but other than that are clueless. I have set a start date of 12 June, but don’t even know if that is accurate. I am not sure why we have NO details yet?? PLEASE!
Donna! All the details are coming today!
Can’t wait for this…have several ladies coming over and we’re anticipating God’s work in our hearts over the next couple of months. So thankful for all the work being poured into this for our benefit. Thank you, thank you!
This is my first online bible study what do I need to do to register or get signed up?
I’m excited to do this bible study. Is there a place to sign up.
Very excited about this bible study. However, I am having difficulty getting the workbook. I live in Canada and when I try to order the book from Lifeway, I’m charged over $40 for shipping which seems ridiculous for a $13 book. I’ve tried our local bookstore but they have not received the workbook yet. Any suggestions on how I can get the workbook (& pay a reasonable $ for shipping)
Hi Christy! If I were you I would either contact LifeWay, since they are the distributor, or try Amazon or Christian Book Distributors. Let me know if that helps!
Unfortunately, Amazon (Canada) nor Christian Book Distributors has it in stock yet (Since Gideon is a new release, it hasn’t quite made it to Canada yet :(. Because Canada is international, Lifeway can’t help on the shipping fees.
Hey Christy, I think Canada has distributors there. Have you checked a store? Or does Canada have a LifeWay website? Just throwing out some ideas. I’m so sorry I can’t do more for you.
I am enjoying the study. Just for your future reference..I ended up calling our local Blessings store here in Edmonton, AB to check if they had the workbook, they didn’t so they ordered it in for me. It didn’t cost anything extra and was here in 5 business days.
I have bought my book and just need info on how to join in 🙂 I am very excited to begin.
Hi all, i’m going to participate in the summer bible study for the first time. I read over the recent post with the instructions and i’m wondering how much i’ll be missing out without Priscilla’s video lessons. I just glanced through the first week and there were a few questions on Day 1 that referred to the video. I didn’t know if there was an answer sheet somewhere with the blanks filled in.
I just moved to a new development and stepped out in faith to post a general invite to the ladies in the neighborhood to join me. I’ve gotten 2 calls and i just want to make sure i do right by my neighbors. I’d appreciate prayers and and helpful suggestions from some seasoned “summer study siestas” (sounds like the SSS postulate from my son’s geometry course!)
Thanks and God bless!
I am soooooo ready for this study. I am looking forward to learning from God and Priscilla. This is the first time I will experience hearing Priscilla teach. I teach a weekly women’s Bible study so I am going to go through this study this summer and maybe have the Women do it in the fall. The Lord bless all you leaders and the time you invest in others.
Group is ready!
Looking forward to it. I keep coming back to this post and reading details or watching Beth. Tomorrow!
I am ready for the study.

2. My husband is recovering from a serious illness and I have temporarily taken a leave from leading Bible study.
3…..I have a lot of insecurities.

Love this!! Thank you!

Becky/Houston, TX/small group/#2 – I wasn’t sure about joining because I recently started grad school and am taking care of our two kids while my husband is deployed. But we have a great group of women and I would’ve missed them and the things we share about God & life too much.

Health stuff, just quit my job because of health stuff, only daughter soon to fly the coop, new church, marriage is deeply challenged but growing, and then some!
That I really struggle to trust when you ask what I did wrong to deserve health issues and I fight to not let it shake me.
I love the Biblical concepts of SUMMER!!!
Oops! Wrong place, wrong post! LOL
