Introducing The Book of Philippians
In case you missed the first announcement – here is our next Bible Study!!!
We begin Monday, September 11th in the Book of Philippians and I’ll be back next week with all the resources you need to begin!
Are you needing to get into God’s Word?
You don’t want to miss this! It is going to be such a good practical study.
This is a four week study. I have divided each chapter into a few sections. So we will go through this book of the Bible more slowly than others. I’ll be posting the book mark with the reading plan before the study begins – around the first week of September.
The Book of Philippians is a book of joy! This book will encourage you to find joy in Christ and live out your faith in the midst of challenging circumstances. Paul used the words joy and rejoicing 17 times in this short book of the Bible! It offers practical guidance for Christian living and emphasizes the importance of Christ-like humility and selflessness.
This letter to the Philippians reminds us to pursue contentment as a unified body of Christ. It also serves as a warning against the dangerous heretical teachings that were threatening to infect the church.

FAQ
How do I enroll for this study?
There is no enrollment. No requirement to subscribe. Just come and join in anytime!
What is Good Morning Girls?
“Good Morning Girls” is a title for a group of women who use email, Facebook, Twitter or text messaging to keep each other accountable for their quiet times.
Do I have to have a Good Morning Girls Group to join the Bible Study?
No. You can do this study without a group on your own.
How Do I Start a Good Morning Girls accountability group?
Invite some of your friends to join you. Pray about who from your church, Bible study group, family, neighborhood or workplace would be a good fit. Groups that are smaller generally work better – 5-12 is a good number especially for email and text messaging groups. Facebook groups can go quite a bit larger and still work.
Once I have a group, what do I do?
Either create a Facebook Group where you can all discuss your daily reading and reflection questions or create an email group and email the group daily. My group uses the Voxer App – a voice messaging app -to share about our quiet times. You could also use text messaging or meet in person weekly in your home or at a coffee shop.
I want to be a leader of a group but I’m not sure how to lead?

The Good Morning Girls Leaders Manual is available as a digital download for free –> HERE.

How to fostering an atmosphere of community. The importance of prayer. A sample welcome letter. 9 ways to get more out of your Bible Study. Answers to frequently asked questions. Icebreaker Questions. And What to do if your GMG Group is struggling.
Can I Join a Group On-Line?
Yes, around one week before we begin, I will invite women with open groups to leave links to their facebook groups or email groups, in the comment section here on the blog. So please stop back on that day to look for a group!
That’s all for now. If you have never seen the video that explains how the SOAK Method and Bible Coloring Chart work – I am posting it below. You do not have to use this method of Bible Study to join us. All you really need is your Bible and an open heart. But these tools will help you go deeper.
Here is an explanation of the
Signature GMG SOAK Bible Study method:

This is a wonderful method that slows us down and helps us soak in every single word.
Here’s what it looks like in my Bible. You can find more pictures like this out on my Instagram page.
Mark your calendars for Monday, September 11th!
