Hi friends! Can you believe May is just around the corner?! That means it’s time for our May book club choice 🎉 Here are all the details:

May Focus: May Flowers

Last month our focus was on April Showers (the storms of life). And you know what they say: April showers bring May Flowers! This month we will focus on what it means to be a well-watered woman. What if instead of feeling dried out and overwhelmed, we felt refreshed and able to flourish? Becoming a well-watered woman is a journey that will happen over our lifetime. As we know Jesus, walk in His footsteps, become planted and rooted in Him, and grow we will see the fruit of a well-watered life. Jesus who is our Living Water will satisfy our hearts and the thirst of our souls. This is the kind of life I want – one wholly surrendered to Jesus, growing and fruitful, looking to Him to satisfy my thirst. To be honest, sometimes it feels unattainable! Join me this month as we start our journey. It’s not impossible to live a life that blooms and flourishes!

May Book Choice:

This month we will be reading “The Well-Watered Woman: Rooted in Truth, Growing in Grace, Flourishing in Faith” by Gretchen Saffles. Gretchen is the founder of Well-Watered Women, an online ministry that encourages and equips women in the hope we have in the gospel. Their slogan “word before world” fuels the products Well-Watered Women creates (journals and Bible studies). In the book, Gretchen uses her own story and practical tools to point us to the One who can help us to flourish in this very life He created for us. It is an invitation to run to the Well that can satisfy us and that never runs dry. Each chapter will focus on themes such as planted, rooted, growing, blooming, flourishing, and of course well-watered. These themes will run through the entire book and I know it will give us the encouragement and tools we need to continue to seek Him and remain faithful during all seasons as we learn to trust Him wholeheartedly.

TO DO:

*Purchase your copy of “The Well-Watered Woman” by Gretchen Saffles. You can purchase directly from her site HERE or pretty much anywhere books are sold.

*Read at your own pace throughout the month of May. We keep it pretty simple! Then join us back on the blog on Friday, May 26th for the discussion questions.

Verse of the Month:

Our memory verse for May is:

 The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.

Isaiah 58:11

Happy reading, friends!
