Quiet Time Resources

During the Women's Leadership Retreat, we discussed some of our own quiet time resources.  It was so neat to share with women what we do during our quiet time with the Lord and books that we had read in the past that we could encourage other women to read.  Jesus Calling was one of the books mentioned.  There is also a Jesus Calling App that you can purchase on your phone or ipod that has daily devotionals. 

One Thousand Gifts was another great devotional mentioned for women to read.  This looks like an excellent book on how to be grateful for the things God has given us.  

 

Weird was another book mentioned to read.  It talks about breaking free from living a normal life to living a abnormal and more fulfilling life.  

These were three books that were mentioned that I thought sounded great.  So my question is, what are you reading or using during your quiet time?  Share with the women by commenting on this blog post!  Hope to hear from you! 

Women's Leadership Retreat

 On Saturday, February 2nd there was a Women's Leadership Retreat at our church.  There were about 40 women that attended this event and it was such a wonderful time to connect as women leaders in our church.

We spent some time socializing with one another and getting to know each other better.  

Of course the tables were decorated so cute and it ALL was very well color coordinated!

Janene Nagel spoke on the Psalms and finding peace through God.  She did a wonderful job speaking and sharing what God has taught her.  

We spent time resting and even had some time to study the Word, reflect on our own spiritual journey and pray alone.  It was a wonderful morning and truly a morning of great rest for many women.
