Looking for a women’s bible study similar to Keeping in Balance (Lisa Brenninkmeyer at walkingwithpurpose.com) that I can do at home on my own. I was excited when looking at her program, but so disappointed when I found out it was only available to parish groups and not for independent study/personal purchase. (I’m not the type to “start a group study at my local parish”, trust me.)
I am the queen of theory and ideals, but when it comes to practical applications in real life, I sometimes tend to stumble in confusion not knowing how to connect the dots between theory and application.
For instance, I like the numerous fairly practical articles in the Catholic Youth Bible by St. Mary’s Press that I’ve used in homeschooling my kids, but they are directed toward youth, not a 45 year old cradle Catholic mom of 5 with little kids still at home and grandma of 2…
Maybe not even a bible study per se, but a study bible with ample commentaries/articles directed at women/moms?
I briefly looked at the Courageous series by Stacy Mitch, but it seems to me to be more theoretical, and not so practical. It’s probably a really good study, but again, I have a problem connecting those dots.
I understand if you have no clue what I’m getting at as far as theory vs. application, but just thought I’d give it a shot since there’s a lot of very intelligent, spiritual, devoted Catholics here.
—Just looking to take more steps on my journey with the Lord…
Any suggestions?
