With the holidays just around the corner and 2017 coming to a close quickly, we’re starting to gear up for winter Bible studies! These last few weeks of the year offer opportunities to slow down, enjoy time with family and friends, and really think through our priorities and rhythms for the new year.
This winter, we’re offering Discerning the Voice of God as an online Bible study, starting January 18! As we refocus our hearts in the new year, we’ll discover the root to clear and daily communication with God—humble obedience. Join us for this 7-week study with Priscilla Shirer, and click here to learn more about the study. Here’s a little more info about the study from Priscilla:
So join us! Study with us on your own, with a group, or with another friend. All you need is a Bible study book!
- Discerning the Voice of God is 7 weeks long, starting January 18 and ending March 1. You’ll get to watch the full video teaching for free until March 31, 2018, allowing some breathing room for those who join in late or miss a couple of weeks. After that time you can purchase or rent the video sessions here.
- You’ll need to grab a copy of the Discerning the Voice of God Bible Study Book. Order the Bible study book at your favorite online retailer or grab one off the shelves at your local LifeWay Store. Make sure you grab this version to best follow along with the study!
- For the first week, you’ll watch the video first and then complete the Week 1 material in the study book before we meet again!
- Participate in the discussion at the links below:Session 1
Our hope for the online Bible studies is not that they’ll replace community in real life. Grab a friend or two or ten and do this study together, using the online videos as a fun addition to your study! If you are studying alone, that’s OK! We are so glad you’re here and hope you find friends and fellowship as we learn together.

Hi Donna! Our system shows that you should have received the Session 2 email this morning around 5:30 CST. I’d recommend checking your spam and promotions folder just in case! The subject line for this morning’s email was “Discerning the Voice of God Online Bible Study: Session 2” if you want to try searching for that. Let us know if you still can’t find it!
In the meantime, you can find all of the session links that have posted so far at LifewayWomen.com/discerningobs.
Just decided to report that I too signed up but are yet to receive any emails to date. HELP!
Hi Funmito! It looks like you should have received the Session 2 email this morning at 5:31 CST. I’d recommend checking your spam and promotions folder just in case! Gmail sometimes likes to put these online Bible study emails in the promotions folder, unfortunately. The subject line for this morning’s email was “Discerning the Voice of God Online Bible Study: Session 2” if you want to try searching for that. Let us know if you still can’t find it, and we’ll try resending it!
In the meantime, you can find all of the session links that have posted so far here!

Susan, you can click here to watch Session 1.
Is this study focused women only or can men join?
Hi Lacey! Men are more than welcome to join. Priscilla may say “ladies” a few times in the study, but we usually have a few brave men join us.
I purchased this bundle with the understanding that it included access to the videos. Now I see I have to purchase or rent the videos. Did I misunderstand this video purchase?
Hi Ronda! We’ll be posting the videos one week at a time and leaving them up for free until March 31. You can click here to watch the first session for free. After that, you can check back on Thursdays at LifeWayWomen.com for the next video!

Help, I have signed up for the emails, but have yet to receive any. I have checked my spam, all my folders in fact. I am a little technologically challenged so I very well could have done something wrong, but I just entered my email address (more than once) and saw the thank you message. If someone could please direct me to the blog at least so I can begin. My group is proceeding without me.
Hi Nicole! I just resent the Session 1 email, so you should be good to go! The subject line is “Discerning the Voice of God Online Bible Study: Session 1” if you want to take a look. (I’d check you spam and promotions folders just in case.)

Hello, I have just signed up to do the Bible Study online. by chance is there anyway for me to get week one? Also, are the Bible studies done live or is there a certain time and date i need to log on in order to do the Bible Study? How long does it take to get the link to join in the study?

This is definitely a topic of concern for me. It’s so important to know that still voice. I am so eager to learn more.
How much longer will folks be able to take advantage of this wonderful, free opportunity. I have registered, but I want to share this with the women at my church tomorrow and tell them how to sign-up. I’d like to be able to tell them the deadline!!
Thanks!!
Hi Helen! We’ll be leaving the videos up for free until March 31.
