Hey, Everybody! I am beside myself with joy over the options we get to recommend for summer Bible study! Watch this video and you’ll see how we’re going about it this summer. Since this is an SSMT (Scripture memory) year and it commands so much of the blog, we have to arrange summer Bible study a little differently but it is going to be fantastic! I am looking so forward to it. OK, give this video a look and you’ll understand pretty easily what to do from there. Can’t wait!

Do we arrive to the first session with week 1 complete OR do we launch off the study, and then complete the first week? I’m new to Georgia, but an old friend in Texas encouraged me to continue hosting the summer study (even though I do not know any of the ladies in my neighborhood). I put it out there for our neighborhood, and now 25 ladies have joined!! Wowzers! We had to move the location from my house, to our neighborhood clubhouse. God is great! We are doing the “What Love Is” and several ladies have asked if they show up on the 16th of June with the first week complete?
Thank you for continuing this summer tradition!
Elizabeth
Hi Elizabeth, what a great problem to have so much interest you had to find a new meeting place!! You are welcome to confirm with Lifeway, but I understand you come together the first week for just the short teaching video. Praying deep connections for your group this summer!
Ps 27:1 NIV The Lord is my light and my salvation. The Lord is the strength of my life.
My son is about to start high school in the fall, and I really feel like it is going to be important for him to understand the bible a little bit more. Especially with the big choices he is going to be making. So I am glad that there are classes during the summer that I could potentially begin having my son go to.
I have my book and I signed up. I am confused where I go now to see where they are getting posted!
