Fall 2025 Online Ladies Bible Study
Behold and Believe: The "I Am" Statements of Jesus
Our next online ladies’ Bible study will walk through Behold and Believe by Joanna Kimbrel and Courtney Doctor, a 8-week journey through the “I Am” statements found in the Gospel of John.
Together, we’ll fix our eyes on the beauty and majesty of Christ and grow in faith as we watch His glory unfold. Week by week, we’ll explore the signs, conversations, and moments where Jesus reveals Himself as the Son of God—and we’ll discover how truly beholding Him leads us to deeper belief.
Whether you’re brand new to the Bible or have followed Jesus for years, this study is for you. Come as you are—bring your questions, your hopes, your doubts, and your desire to know Him more. We’d love for you to join us!
Wednesdays at 7:00PM - 8:30PM EST via Zoom
October 1 – November 19, 2025
October 1 – Week 1: Introduction
We’ll get to know each other, discuss an overview of the study, who Jesus is, and how the Gospel impacts our daily life.
October 8 – Week 2: “I Am the Bread of Life”
Explore Jesus as the Bread of Life (John 6:35, 48–51), learning how He sustains us spiritually and invites us to trust Him as our daily nourishment.
October 15 – Week 3: “I Am the Light of the World”
Reflect on John 8:12 and surrounding passages where Jesus offers light in our darkness, guiding us toward truth and clarity.
October 22 – Week 4: “I Am the Door”
Engage with John 10:7–9 to understand how Jesus opens the gateway to abundant and secure life in relationship with Him.
October 29 – Week 5: “I Am the Good Shepherd”
Center on John 10:11–18, where Jesus models tender, sacrificial care—leading, protecting, and knowing us personally as His sheep.
November 5 – Week 6: “I Am the Resurrection and the Life”
Grounded in John 11:25–26, this week illuminates the hope and power of Jesus over death, and the promise of eternal life in Him.
November 12 – Week 7: “I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life”
Study John 14:6 to grasp how Jesus is the exclusive and trustworthy path to God, truth personified, and the source of life.
November 19 – Week 8: “I Am the True Vine”
Delve into John 15:1–5, focusing on our union with Jesus and how abiding in Him empowers spiritual fruitfulness, growth, and connection.
How Will the Study Nights Go?
Beginning Wednesday, October 1, we’ll gather once a week for eight weeks from 7:00–8:30 PM (Eastern Time) on Zoom. Each meeting will begin with a catch-up of each other's week, brief review of that week’s scripture readings, followed by group discussion through the provided study guide (purchase here on Amazon).
There’s no pressure to speak—but I hope you’ll feel comfortable to share as the weeks go on. Whether you're eager to talk or prefer to quietly soak it all in, you're welcome here.
If you’re able, I encourage you to turn your video on—not out of obligation, but just to help us connect more personally as sisters in Christ! :)
How to Join & What You’ll Need
Our online bible studies are always free to join; however, for this particular study, there is a study guide for you to purchase: Amazon or Crossway.
Bring Your Bible
I recommend a translation that stays close to the original Hebrew and Greek, such as:
ESV (English Standard Version)
NKJV (New King James Version)
NASB (New American Standard Bible)
CSB (Christian Standard Bible)
The New Living Translation (NLT), Amplified Bible, and New International Version (NIV) are also great supplemental options if you're looking for more clarity or everyday language.
Optional but Helpful: If you’re able, a study Bible is a wonderful tool to provide helpful context and background. I’d be happy to send recommendations—just reach out!
How We’ll Meet
We’ll meet through Zoom, a free and easy-to-use platform. You can join from your computer, tablet, or phone, though a larger screen is usually best for viewing and participating.
Before the study begins, I’ll send you the Zoom link and any tech help you might need to get set up.
Staying Connected with WhatsApp
To stay connected throughout the week, we’ll use a free messaging app called WhatsApp (compatible with all smartphones). It’s a great way to share prayer requests, reminders, and encouragement without the chaos of a giant group text. Once you register, I’ll send you an invite to join the group chat!
Let me know if you'd like this turned into a simple flyer, email invitation, or webpage layout!
