This is a small group that was following the plan to read through the Bible one chapter at a time with Good Morning Girls. Good Morning Girls is on an indefinite break. But will we continue reading through the Bible.
Each Monday go to the Weekly Reading Plan or the Bible Study Thread for our current book to see the introductory post for the week and the weekly reading passages, discussion questions, and memory verse.
Be sure to come here each day to see what the members of the group are sharing. Try to participate in the discussion with a post at least once each week to share with us what God is teaching you. Posting on the forum helps motivate all of us to keep reading by seeing the others persevering and it provides additional insight and learning.
Each Friday we will attempt to share a Friday Devotional that addresses some of the topics we have read that week.
Please also take time to read the Group Overview post that provides some ideas on how to get the most out of your study here! You can find this post in the the "Bible Study" section of the board.

Week of March 23
Monday
Reading: Matthew 16
3 Minute Devotional
Optional GMG Discussion Question:
We are presented with what could seem like an oxymoron: if we try to save our lives, we'll lose them. But if we lose our life for Christ's sake, we'll find it. Sounds like a riddle.
In what way have you tried to hang on to your life? What is Christ asking you today to sacrifice for His sake?
Tuesday
Reading: Matthew 17
3 Minute Devotional
Optional GMG Discussion Question:
Jesus tells us, if we have faith even as small as a mustard seed we can accomplish great things for Him.
Has there been a time in your life that you can point to, when you know that your faith - perhaps even a little shaky - gave you the strength to believe for the impossible...and it became reality?
Wednesday
Reading: Matthew 18
3 Minute Devotional
Optional GMG Discussion Question:
Jesus illustrated for us the importance of forgiveness. We are the servant - He has forgiven us of an immeasurable amount of offense, so how can we not find grace enough to forgive our offender of a much lesser matter?
Is there someone in your life that you know you need to forgive? Have you experienced the freedom of forgiving?
Thursday
Reading: Matthew 19
3 Minute Devotional
Optional GMG Discussion Question:
The rich young ruler found out, money can't buy everything. Jesus has to occupy your heart. He touched on the one thing that occupied this man's heart - but the cost was too great for him.
What occupies your heart? Is it Jesus, or is it something else. Do you need to dethrone something in your life so Jesus can occupy first place?
Friday
Reading: Matthew 20
3 Minute Devotional
Optional GMG Discussion Question:
Imagine what it was like for those blind men that day: their eyes were opened and the first thing they ever saw in their life was Jesus' face!
How long has it been since you truly "saw" Jesus? How long has it been since you really looked at the Word and "saw" Him? Is your prayer today, "Lord, that my eyes be opened"?
