Girl Talk: Introduction

I am SO excited to start this book study (Girl Talk by Jen Hatmaker) with you! I am reading  it with my church women’s group and we started last week and let me tell you, IT IS GOOD!

Girl Talk is a five week study. Each week, you will have five lessons to complete. Day five is more of a reflection time spent in the word.  I would suggest grabbing a journal and a highlighter. Even if you aren't a writer, you will want to write. I promise. 

In the INTRODUCTION, Jen tells us that “friendship among women is an avenue to Godliness. It’s not a luxury we should feel guilty about prioritizing….In fact, friendship mimics the very intimacy between the Father and the Son.”

It doesn't matter where you live, if your friends are near or far, even if you don't currently have many.  Being surrounded by a family of faith is so important. We all need support and someone to hold our hand, laugh with us, cry with us and understand the journey we live on. At the very least, it’s nice to have someone listen and offer a hug.

So, suite up Girl Friends! It’s time to jump into this life changing journey. Make new friends. Grow your established friendships. Let go of what holds you down. Ask yourself, why do I need this book study? What am I hoping to learn? Where am I lacking in friendships in my life?

Prepare to GROW.

Prepare to LOVE.

Prepare to LET GO.

Prepare to FORGIVE.

Prepare to UNDERSTAND.

Prepare to LEARN.

Ready, Set, Go! Start week ONE! Meet me back here next Thursday as I reflect and link up if you choose. I personal enjoy sharing my life and the journey God has me on with others but if that's not for you, that's totally cool. If you haven't joined our FB group and want to, email me your facebook name so I can add you or you can search Girl Talk Group and send me a request.

Happy reading. Know that you are loved and we are grateful for you to join us on this journey.
