"To glimpse the fullness of His grace is a life-changing revelation." Cynthia HealdI recently had the opportunity to review a new Bible study book by Cynthia Heald, Becoming a Woman of Grace (published by NavPress).
This is a great little Bible study tool. It's not very long, just 11 chapters, each only about 6 or 7 pages in length. But there is so much wisdom packed into this little book. Chapters include: "Set Free by Grace", "Growing in Grace", and "Becoming a Gracious Woman", among others. Each chapter is introduced with a bible scripture and a quote from a Christian author, then is followed by a number of questions on the topic of the chapter. Each question is brief and contains a Bible scripture to look up and reflect on.
I've read many, many Bible study books in my adult life, and this one is definitely one of my favorites. I especially like the fact that this study is relatively simple and short (a must-have for my busy Mommy life), but it encouraged me to really dig into my Bible and consider what the scriptures have to say on a topic, not just read what someone else thinks about the scriptures.
I highly recommend this book as a great way to start your new year. You will be changed by it in the best possible way!

I'd love to read this book, because one of my goals for this year is to be more filled with grace and to show grace to those around me.

I would like to read to see if we could use it at our mom's meetings.
I would like to win this as one of my new year resolutions was to reconnect with my spiritual side. This book sounds lovely, to have a bible scripture for reflection sounds like a great beginning.

I would love to do this study because grace is such a central part of my faith - and any tool that directs me to what the Bible has to say about it is something I'd like to check out.
