Welcome to the Behold & Believe Study
Fall 2025

Hi Friend! I am so glad you’re here.

Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for years or are just beginning to explore who He is, this study is for you. Over the next several weeks, we’ll dive into the rich, gospel-saturated words of Jesus known as the Seven “I Am” Statements in the gospel of John. My prayer is that these truths will bring deep encouragement to your heart and soul as you see more of who He is and who you are in Him.

BEHOLD & BELIEVE STUDY GUIDE

Our main resource for this fall study will be Behold and Believe: A Bible Study on the "I Am" Statements of Jesus by Courtney Doctor and Joanna Kimbrel. This study guide will teach us how to observe, interpret, apply, and reflect on key Bible verses about Jesus’s identity. It includes weekly prayers, memory verses, brief commentaries, and discussion questions that help women see Jesus, trust Him alone for salvation, and proclaim His goodness to others.

MEETING RHYTHM

We’ll gather once a week on Zoom, beginning:
Wednesday, June 18 - July 30, 2025
7:00–8:30 PM Eastern Time

Each meeting will include:

  • A few minutes to share personal updates and connect as sisters

  • A brief overview of the scripture we studied that week

  • A time to walk through the study guide questions together

  • Space to let the Holy Spirit lead and speak to our hearts

There is never an obligation to speak, but I hope you’ll eventually feel comfortable enough to share your heart as you feel led.

While I understand there may be moments when you can’t have your video on, if possible, please show your beautiful face—it helps create warmth and connection in our group.

MY HOPE FOR THIS GROUP
I’m so thankful the Lord has provided an opportunity for us to come together over these next several weeks. I pray that you will experience the love of your Good Shepherd in profound and beautiful ways. I pray you feel encouraged, convicted, edified, and inspired in your walk with Him. I hope we can all glean wisdom from one another and build each other up as sisters in Christ.

Our times together are both sacred and gracious. If you don’t finish the readings for the week, never let that hinder you from joining us! The Lord can still speak to you in our meetings and use you to encourage other sisters. We are all doing this life together! We are all a bunch of daughters on our way Home to our Dad.

“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some,
but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.” — Hebrews 10:24-25
