About the Study
I’m just so excited about this summer because I’ll be hosting an online Bible Study (more like a book discussion) here in this space and I hope you’ll join me! Our small group always takes off during the summer, but I thought we could continue to read and share together at our own computers and in our own homes. This study isn’t just for my normal Bible Study girls, though. It’s for you! So, invite a friend or two or three to participate.
If you don’t want to miss out on the weekly posts and any upcoming updates, please subscribe to the blog on the right side of this page.
And the book we’ll be reading together is . . .. (cue drumroll and trumpet fanfare) . . . Discerning the Voice of God by Priscilla Shirer.
Feel free to order/buy your own copy of the book in preparation for reading it together. I will also order several copies of the book and make them available at Newington Baptist Church for you to purchase from me directly.
There are still a few books available in the Ladies’ Bible Study room at Newington Baptist Church.
Starting July 5th, I’ll post a weekly discussion topic/questions/thoughts to guide our time. Then I’ll open up the space to you for your comments, questions, ideas and more!
If you get a bit behind, it doesn’t matter at all. You can always return to the posts we’ve created whenever you finish the corresponding chapters. You can essentially go at your own pace.
So, stay tuned for more details about this fun and exciting way to spend the summer together!

Heather C. King - Room to Breathe 
sounds like a wonderful idea.
YAY!
OK Heather…I’m sure God will bless me with plenty of time for this study AND studying for the certifications due by the year’s end!! Discernment is such a deep subject, a spiritual grace refined by obedience. Please set aside a book for me at church, if there are enough. Robin
I am so happy to read this!!
This sounds fun! I am excited! I wonder if I can download the
book to my kindle?!?
I think that’s what Michelle Girard is doing! I have it on my nook, so you should be good to go!
Heather and I are very excited to join in. Thanks for organizing this.
God bless you,
Heather & Janis
Wonderful! I can’t wait!
Heather, I am so excited. I really love her writing, it’s very intimate. I can only imagine what hearing her in person must be like!

I am usually part of a summer reading group, but it did not come together this year. I was excited to see that you are leading an on-line discussion group! I’m not familiar with the author, but the title certainly gets my attention. I’ll check it out for my Kindle. Hope it is available in that format. God Bless.
Carol, That’s amazing how it all worked out! I have seen this book available on amazon Kindle, so I think you should be all set. I seem to remember that you had done some of the Going Deeper studies through Lifeway—-with Kay Arthur, Beth Moore and Priscilla Shirer. So, you may have done some of Priscilla’s studies without even knowing it. Maybe “Faithful, Abundant and True?” Anyway, I’ve so enjoyed her work and I hope you will, too.
I have it on my Kindle…..so no worries there.
Hey Heather,
I would love to join your group this summer. I need this!
Hurray! That’s so exciting! I can’t wait to begin. I’m only delaying the start because our VBS is next week and I know that will take all of my time. But, it won’t be long!
I would like a book as well. I look forward to this. Lin
count me in
Your daily devotions are emailed to me via my sister-in law in SC. I live in Georgia and look forward to reading them everyday. I am going to go get this book today and do the study with you! I have really enjoyed your writings and I am excited about this book and about the timing, just what I need 🙂
Jayne, what a blessing it will be for us to have you join in! I hope you are able to find the book at the store. Some ended up having to order it online, but others found it on the shelves. Don’t worry, though, because there are several others who are still getting the books—you’re not the only one! 🙂
Yes I had to order it, but it will be in by Monday 🙂
Having jet lag from returning from China, and the many tasks of “getting back” had me wondering when I would ever get this done! However, I have read the first two sections, and now am exploring your questions, this site etc. I read some while awake in middle of night-and it comforted me into sleep! Thank goodness God speaks to me, sometimes through friends, always through Scripture and now this book! My peace I leave with you, He says, and He has given me peace about so much! Lin
