This Bible study was initially presented in a women's group several years ago. At the conclusion of the study the women were asked to evaluate the journey we had taken. The outpouring of encouragement and kindness were an enormous blessing, leaving me humbled once again that God had used me to bring His Light and His love to others.
Many of you who will or are following this page, will not know me at all. Please allow me to share just a few brief snippets from words that have been written about this study and how God is working through my life.
"Although our purpose was to learn more about God and to rely on him for every aspect of our lives, the time we spent together every week in the discussion of our study gave us a new knowledge of each other. We prayed for each other, shared our weaknesses with each other and learned to draw strength fromthe individual strengths each person brought to the group. Everyone finished the Bible study with more knowledge of God, themselves, and the other women who were in the study."

"In this life, it is so much easier to point out the faults and weaknesses in others, but Lynn encourages women to look within and ask God to do a work, a transformation into His image -- one weakness at a time, one step at a time."
~~Robin S.
Pastor's Wife
Mother of 8
"I have been working with women in ministries both inside and outside of the church for many years, and personally feel Lynn succeeded in tenderly presenting this program, which not only touched the needs of the women's hurting hearts but brought healing to their wounded souls."
~~Carol E.
Worship Leader
Independent Business Woman
"I was at the Retreat where Lynn shared the first piece of the whole with us. And it was a wonderful call to seek 'what is holding us back,' repent, and press on to change -- in Him!"

"Here's another way to put it: You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We're going public with this, as public as a city on a hill." ~~Matthew 5:14, The Message
When Isaiah saw the LORD high and lifted up and the train of his robe filling the temple he saw his brokenness. Isaiah was a man of unclean lips and lived among a people of unclean lips. He also experienced God's tender mercy, and he was a changed man. When God asked, "Who will go for us?", Isaiah answered, "Here I am, send me?"
Allow yourself to glimpse the Glory of the Lord, come to a deep realization of your own brokenness, and encounter God's amazing grace and mercy. For Isaiah it was crude language holding him back from being all God had for him to be.
I was battling some very unhealthy beliefs about food because of childhood trauma. For you it may be shopping, smoking, facebook, electronic connectivity of all kinds, career, uncontrolled anger, unhealthy relationships -- you fill in the blank. It's whatever is blocking the position reserved for Jesus on the throne of your heart. God eagerly awaits your invitation for Him to renovate your heart as He did Isaiah's. When you aknowledge your brokenness and receive the tender mercies of God, like Isaiah you will find the Light of Jesus shining more brightly through you like a city on a hill drawing others to Him.
