What is Good Morning Girls? (GMG)
If you have never heard of Good Morning Girls before here’s a little explanation. “Good Morning Girls” is a title for a group of women who use email, Facebook, Twitter, Skype or text messaging to keep each other accountable for their quiet times. For 3+ years, I have been a part of a group of girls who email each other each daily after we have our quiet time. We say “Good Morning” and then share what we read in our quiet time. Some of us have our quiet time first thing in the morning, while others squeeze it in during children’s naps or at bedtime. The time of day doesn’t matter…..our focus is just being in God’s Word daily!

Who can join?
Single women, married women, women with kids, women without kids, high school or college girls….. basically ANY woman who wants to pursue walking with Jesus.

Why?
Our main goal is to be accountable to each other and to help each other maintain the discipline of reading God’s word daily as we apply what we are reading to our lives.

What’s the commitment?
Joining a Good Morning Girls group requires commitment. Now that I have had time to watch these groups form and grow, I am aware that some start strong but then fizzle out. As a result the entire group can get discouraged. So it is very important that if you join a group you remain committed to the end. Even if you can only check in once or twice a week – please do not quit completely. The other girls WANT to hear from you!

This is a 2 month commitment.
The spring session runs from March 25th-May 17th.

What To Study?
The spring SOAP Bible reading plan of Luke 9-16 is optional.
You can choose as a group to read through a certain book of the Bible together, go through one of our past Bible studies, or each do your own thing.

What we provide: {FREE}

• Bible reading plan
• Living Like Jesus: Luke 9-16 study guide for you to journal and record your S.O.A.P. quiet times
• Weekly videos that provide further understanding and personal application
• Weekly blog posts on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays to help you dig into the scripture of the week and gain better insight and application.
• Challenges aimed at helping you put God’s Word into action in your life.
• Weekly memory verses
• Our materials translated into multiple languages

{For KIDS}
We LOVE helping moms get their kids into God’s Word and because of that, we have partnered with The Better Mom and The Dig, by offering The Dig Volume II at a special discounted rate for ALL moms participating in our upcoming study! The Dig, provides a fun and easy way for YOU to get into the book of Luke 9-16 with your kids this session! (Please note: The first 4 weeks will be in Vol I of The Dig and the last 4 weeks will be in Vol II of The Dig)

 Now you and your children can learn the same chapters of Luke TOGETHER!

A typical Dig lesson consists of the following four components:

1.  The Map: The Map tells you and your child where you’ll be going in each lesson.  It is a short summary of the study ahead.

2.  The Dig: The Dig is the main passage you will be studying.  Following each passage will be several questions designed to help conversation and understanding.  They are meant to be a guide.  You can use them or tweak them to help you talk with your children.

3.  The Treasure: The Treasure is the big idea of each lesson.  In a short statement, it is what you want your child to remember from the passage you studied.

4. The Display: When an archaeologist finds a treasure, they will clean it up and put it on display for everyone to see.  This is the basic idea of the Display.  It is the application of the Treasure you have found!

Still not sure if you should join Good Morning Girls this spring? Here are a few quotes from women who participated in past GMG Bible studies!

“I think this study has brought a whole new level of mindfulness to my day. It has forced me to look at myself and evaluate my responsibility in strengthening relationships. It’s also helped me define goals for myself with the confidence that these are Biblical goals. It’s been a long time since I’ve studied the Bible with any consistency and I’m so grateful that I chose this one. Very positive!“- Ginny

“Thank you so much for this study. It’s made a difference in my life, which extends to my husband, children, grandchildren.”- Cheryl

“For the past 2 years, God has used GMG to draw me closer to Him than ever before. I’ve taken leaps of faith as I’ve learned He is always there waiting to catch and guide me. He’s granted me the courage to lead 3 GMG studies, and I love it. In doing so, I’ve become a prayer warrior, and I’m no longer fearful of being transparent. Praying for others and sharing my testimony are are two of the greatest ways in which I can share God’s love with others. God has given me the power and perseverance to overcome many trials, while resting in His peace for His perfect timing and plan – I’ve overcome depression and a 21 year battle with bulimia, and I’m full of joy and love life. I can’t achieve anything on my own. I need Him.”- Jen

“The GMG studies have been such a huge blessing to me and my daughters. My 17 and 16 year old daughters have done the last 3 studies with me and it has brought us closer. God has been able to draw us near to him while also drawing us closer as mother and daughters and them as sisters. We started out just doing the first one together, then for the second and third we invited friends to join us and it has just been a wonderful experience. God shows Himself through these studies.”- Betty

As you can see, being in God’s Word on a daily bases DOES make a difference in your life!

You can sign-up individually or in a group……either way, we’d love to have you join us this spring!
