God's intention for all of us is that He would do a great work in and through us while we are here on earth. That we would become used by Him for a powerful Kingdom purpose. But just like King Saul in the book of 1 Samuel, we can inhibit God's plan by our unwillingness to sit with God through the uncomfortable process of transformation. As we learn a new way to remain steady and trusting rather than hiding from or deflecting God's call, we become wildly useful for the Kingdom of God. In this six-session video-based Bible study, Lisa Whittle explores how The Hard Good is a powerful path to growth, as we learn to: accept things we wish were different, cheer for someone who gets what we want, open our hearts again when they've been hurt, find joy in the waiting, and show up when we want to shut down. Let's get out of God's way and let Him do the good work in and through our hard places as only He can. This study guide includes: Individual access to six streaming video sessions, Video teaching notes and group discussion questions, A Psalm of David for perspective on each session Between sessions personal Bible study, Leader's guide Sessions and video run times: 1. Getting Out of Your Own Way (12:00) 2. Becoming God's Woman (16:00) 3. Moving Past Your Past (16:00) 4. Overcoming Internal Struggles (18:30) 5. Showing Up vs. Shutting Down (18:00) 6. Embracing the Hard Good (13:00)
