In a small group: Read through the workbook and discuss the questions as a group, one week at a time.
By yourself: Go through the guide on your own, one week at a time. If you decide to use it by yourself, consider sharing your responses to the questions and your learnings from the practices with someone you trust. Often learning can be enhanced by sharing it with someone else!
A Note from the Editor, About the Authors
To help us reflect widely and thoughtfully on these nine biblical women, we invited nine different practitioners and theologians to lead us in imagining how the text informs our understandings of vocation. Interestingly, each of the writers’ own sense of calling is woven into their reflections in both implicit and explicit ways, helping to create a diverse set of reflections for you to engage with.
I am encouraged by how each author sees scripture in both shared and also unique ways. Their diversity of perspectives helps me envision the complexity of our God and the long history of people who have responded to God’s callings in the world.
