ANNOUNCEMENT: OUR NEXT STUDY IS…
A lot of you have been asking about our next study, and I’m excited to announce that I’ve chosen the topic of grace. Grace is the unmerited favor of God. It’s at the core of God’s relationship to mankind. It’s at the heart of everything that we do.
We’ve all heard the word “grace,” but few stop to consider what grace really means and how it’s woven into every part of our lives from our salvation to each breath that we take.
R.C. Sproule writes, “The more we understand how kind God has been to us and the more we are overcome by His mercy, the more we are inclined to love Him and to serve Him.”
We can’t understand the depth of God’s grace until we truly understand the depth of our sin, which is where this study will guide us. As we dig into scripture, we’ll examine God’s kindness and love where it’s least been deserved. We’ll witness His incomparable gift, as He offers hope to the hopeless. We’ll learn to give grace in difficult situations and what it really means to love as He loves.
Next Monday I’ll have all of the details for you, and once again we’ll have a free study guide, so stay tuned to my blog.
If you haven’t subscribed yet, you can click here to do so. We don’t require sign ups, and the study is free.
FAQ: How do I participate in this study?
It’s simple. If you haven’t done so already, download a copy of the FREE Bible study guide. You’ll find the download further down this page.
On Mondays I’ll have new printables for you (see links below) including scripture cards, questions, week-at-a-glance, and a coloring page. Friday is a recap of the week, and my thoughts on the study.
During the week, you’ll study at home, following the outline of the study guide. You can study alone or with a group of friends–well suited for either.
In addition to my posts here, you can find me on Facebook. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons, I’ll post my journal entries and share my thoughts. I’ll also open up the discussion for you to share your thoughts.
Here is a link to my facebook page:

Note: You’ll also see a copy of my Bible Study/journal below (available at Amazon – affil link). This is an optional addition to the study. Unlike my previous journals, it contains everything in the study guide as well as the entire book of Philippians (KJV), coloring pages, thought-provoking questions, and my thoughts on the study. Not to worry however, if you’re using the free study guide (link below), you’ll still have access to all of this in the form of free printables, and Friday’s recap here on the blog.
P.S. See the colouring page below? Come back here on Friday to continue our study on “Philippians.” I’ll have another colouring page for you then!

Monique B says
Hello will we have a journal guide for our Grace Bible Study coming up?
Darlene Schacht says
No, I’ve decided not to make a journal for the upcoming study. You could either use the free study guide, which comes out next Monday, or one of my 6 month journals.
Angel says
So happy that I have found your blog! I look forward to following along with the bible study!
All the best,
Angel
