In a culture that promotes independence and self-empowerment, we are taught to stand on our own two feet, to "pull ourselves up by our bootstraps." What happens, then, when we trip and fall? What happens when we realize we're weak, or weary, or lacking wisdom, direction, or strength? Let's learn to live out (and promote) a different posture: leaning. Leaning on Jesus. Leaning of Jesus is an eight-session women's Bible study that aims to teach women that what they need they receive from the Lord: forgiveness and strength for today, direction for today and tomorrow, and hope for eternity. We lean into Him and follow His lead as He calls us into our vocations and other people's lives. Leaning on Jesus is perfect for individual or group use, and includes a Leader Guide, weekly study review, and daily readings.

Ample materials are provided to make the sessions flexible for personal or group use and to accommodate changing schedules and individual needs. Targeted study, discussion and reflection questions, and life-application challenges guide you in your exploration of joy.

There you are at the very edge of the diving board. Will you take that leap? Will you stand there, paralyzed by fear? Or will you turn around and crawl all the way back on your hands and knees? Every woman has a purpose in life, a God-given calling that is unique to each one. But that purpose-way out there at the far edge of comfort zones-can be scary. Women worry. Struggle. The storms of life are distracting, and the devil is always whispering insecurities. From time to time, all women have felt like sinking to the bottom of the pool. It's only because the Savior offers His guidance and strength that women can step out of their comfort zone and serve Him in whatever capacity they are called to serve. Jesus calls women to the edge of living boldly as God's daughters. He steps in, so His daughters can step out!

When our Lord says, "Be still, and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10), what does He mean? God's Word promises that in whatever kind of storm we find ourselves in, Jesus always comes to us. In Be Still and Know, unpack the promises found in Psalm 46 that are fulfilled in Christ. The first session looks at Psalm 46 in detail and examines storms of life. Then, in the following seven sessions, study narratives from the Gospels as Jesus meets various women who are experiencing their own storms and explore the perspective of each woman as He provides refuge, strength, help, and hope. Looking to the biblical and cultural contexts will allow you to better grasp the depth of Christ's care, purpose, and attention to every need. In the midst of today's storms, may God reveal His refuge for us in Christ, the one who has overcome the world.
