A group of about 10 women at my church are following and #doinglenttogether.. Starting this Wednesday, we will be getting together to discuss our thoughts on the devotional and anything else God has laid on our hearts. We are meeting for about an hour each Wednesday until Holy Week. Can you give me some suggestions of how I can incorporate the Keep It Shut bible study with this group? I want to make sure we have enough to discuss to fill our time together.
Thank you ?
Well, this just blesses me! Thank you for studying Keep It Shut. That Bible study is 6 weeks long so I would think if you did one lesson a week (which is roughly 2 chapters of Keep It Shut per week) that would work well for the 6 Wednesdays from tomorrow until Holy Week. If you didn’t purchase the DVD and study guide, I would just have women read two chapters per week and come ready to discuss what they highlighted, what challenged them, and what one prayer they have after reading the material that week. Hope that helps!

I participated in Proverbs 31 Bible study using the Zip It book so was excited to get the opportunity to review again during Lent.
Hi Susie, that #Keepitshutbook was one of my favorite OBS’ too and is a book I often pull off my shelf to re-read. We can’t wait to go through the Zip It devotional with you as we are #doinglenttogether. Thanks for joining us!

I went to purchase and as of 2/12 Amazon was out of stock…thankfully! Today Christianbook.com has it for only $5.00! Just wanted you to know in case you were looking for a copy before Lent on Wed.
Thank you for sharing that awesome sale, Melodia!

This is a wonderful Lenten activity. I look forward to participating. I will also have to access it on the public Facebook page.

Like, Claudia, I am also not on or interested in being on Facebook, and I am wondering if there is some other way to participate in this Lent series.
I’m not a member of Facebook either, BUT if a page is public, you can still view it and read all the posts without being a member ;) Just click on the link that she provided
Erica, thank you so much, that is incredibly helpful and great news!

I would love to participate but I am not in Facebook, are there any other options?
Thanks
Hi Claudia, we’ll be following Karen’s Zip It 40-day devotional if you would like to read along with us. However, all our discussion will be on the Facebook Page. Some participants create a FB profile just for this challenge. We hope you can join us!
