Okay then. Let's get this thing started!
During my nine year tenure as Director of Women's Ministry at a large church in Austin, Texas, I developed a deep passion for God's Word. And I noticed that Bible studies for women with both theological depth and raw real world applications are hard to find. So I began writing them myself.
Now, with my home church's support and blessing, it's finally time. I'm releasing these studies to the general public. What's been incubated among my sisters and friends here in Austin is ready for the big wide world. And I'm ready to share these materials and all kinds of other stuff through speaking and teaching wherever God gives me the opportunity.
To do that with excellence requires resources, and so here I am. This crowdfunding campaign will provide the seed money to launch Real Bible Gal Ministries, a resource for those who long to connect biblical truth with the real world we live in and wrestle with. I want everyone who interacts with me and the studies I've written to experience a real, raw, and authentic relationship with the true Author, and to connect Scripture with a live out loud kind of faith.
With a successful fundraising campaign, Real Bible Gal Ministries will launch my first public release, "More Than Mind-Full: what God tells us to remember." This launch will include:
- a five-week study guide
- a twelve month accompanying journal
- six professionally filmed and edited teaching sessions for groups (by far, the most expensive part)
Other items covered by this campaign include necessary legal documents and licenses to register as an LLC, and start up expenses like professional headshots, business cards, and such.
In the coming months, additional Bible study releases will follow on topics like the women of the Bible, spiritual conversations with Jesus, living brave, and the Apostle John's letters. I'm also continuing to write new material both at my home church and independently. I can't wait to see what God wants to do with this material that's been on my heart and on my shelf for so long.
So...that's the plan. I'm looking forward to getting what God's given me out to a wider audience, encouraging more and more folks to take God at His Word and find out just how much He matters to our very real world. Thanks so much for your support.
