Join Us For Our Next Online Bible Study: Better Than Life!

By Lifeway Girls

No matter if you want to gather a group of girls or walk through it with your daughter, we hope you’ll join us for our online Bible study launching this March!

You are invited to join us as we walk together through Better Than Life by Caroline Saunders.

Join Caroline over nine sessions as she helps girls discover how God’s “steadfast love is better than life” (Ps. 63:3) as Caroline leads them through an in-depth study of Psalm 63, teaching them to consider the context, observe, interpret, apply, and delight in God’s Word.

Better Than Life: How to Study the Bible and Like It teaches us that faith and fun don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Studying the Bible without a plan can be frustrating—kind of like trying to cook without a recipe. Caroline Saunders offers a straightforward recipe girls can understand and enjoy by intentionally and creatively combining humor with the skills they need to get the most from their time in Scripture.

How It Works

Better Than Life is a 9-session Bible study. Through our blog every week, you will have access to each of the session teaching videos for FREE! All you have to do is register, purchase your Bible study book to follow along, and engage in the personal study days throughout the week.

The first session begins on March 18! There will be a new video available here on the blog every Thursday for nine weeks. You can watch the session with your girls at any point during the week.

You’ll also want to follow us over on Instagram to connect with Caroline each Thursday! She’ll share some encouragement for your girls and bonus tips as we walk these nine weeks together.

Getting Started

If you are a mom or girls ministry leader who would like to do this with one teen girl or a group of girls, here are the five steps to take:

1. Register for this online Bible study using the form below and hit submit. You will be brought right back here to proceed to the next step:

If you were brought back to this page after hitting “submit,” you are officially registered and you can proceed to the next step!

2. Purchase a copy of the Better Than Life Teen Bible Study Book for you and each of your girls.



3. Determine a time and location to meet. Then, communicate your plan to meet with the girls!

If you are meeting online and using a video resource (like Zoom or Google Hangouts) to gather each week, you can stream the video from your own computer then simply share your screen with your girls.

4. For the first week, you will watch the video released on March 18 together with your girls. The girls will complete the Session 1 personal study days on their own before you meet again.



5. Use the Leader Guide located in the back of the Teen Bible Study Book as a resource throughout the 9 sessions as you lead and facilitate the group.

FAQ

Q: How old do the girls need to be for this study? 

A: This study is recommended for teen girls ages 11 and up.  

Q: Is there a separate leader book that I need to purchase?

A: Nope! You get to purchase the same teen Bible study book, but you’ll want to check out the leader guide in the back.

Q: If I am leading a group, do each of my girls need to register to participate in this study?

A: No! Only the leader needs to register in order for the group to participate.

Q: How long will the videos be available?

A: We will be offering the Better Than Life session videos online for free for a limited time. Videos will remain up until June 3, 2021, allowing some breathing room for groups who join in late or miss a couple of weeks (we know spring break is probably around here somewhere!).

Q: Are there other studies I can do with my girls once this study is over?

A: Yes! You can see a helpful guide here.

For any other questions, please contact us at girls.ministry@lifeway.com.

    So, I’m a little confused. This study is no longer available online? But is listed as an online study. What do you have available online?

    Will this study come back again to view videos? First time on this site, a little confused why it’s still available but you can’t watch videos.

      This online Bible study was a limited resource. The information lives on the blog. Sorry for the confusion!
