We live in a world that tells us to hustle harder, do more, be better. But Jesus offers a different way - not striving, but abiding.

In this week’s Weekly Visit, Beth and Jenna will unpack what it means to:

• Live from connection, not performance

• Choose relationship with Jesus over spiritual burnout

• Recognize when we’ve slipped into striving and how to return to rest

• Abide in His love in the midst of real-life responsibilities

The Bible study may be wrapped, but the journey is far from over.

• What it really looks like to build (and keep) a daily rhythm in Scripture

• Practical ways to stay in the Word even whe...

In the final part of Abide in His Love, we enter the hardest (and holiest) chapters of John’s Gospel.

John 18–21 takes us through betrayal, denial, suffering, death… and then, astonishingly, restoration and resurrection. It’s the story of a Savior who steps into pain; not to avoid it, but to redeem it.

Together with Beth and Steph, we’ll uncover:

• How Jesus meets us in our darkest moments

• Why even failure (like Peter’s) can become a...

We’re back for the next chapter of our journey through the Gospel of John!

In Part Five of Abide in His Love, we’ll dive into John 14–17 — some of the most intimate, powerful words Jesus ever spoke. These are His final teachings to the disciples before His Passion… and they’re meant for us, too.

How do we bear lasting fruit in our everyday lives?

Mary, Martha, and Lazarus were siblings, each with their own personality, their own way of loving Jesus, and likely their own tensions. And yet, Jesus called them His friends. In this final session of the series, we’ll reflect on what it means to embrace the differences among us and to stay in relationship even when things get complicated. 

 Sisterhood isn’t about agreeing on everything, it’s about choosing to see Christ in the othe...

Friendship is beautiful—but it’s also messy. Feelings get hurt. Expectations go unmet. We misunderstand each other. But as we’ll reflect on the life of Mary Magdalene—a woman who experienced both profound mercy and fierce loyalty—we’ll consider how grace and forgiveness can be the bridge that keeps us connected even in conflict. 

This is where real sisterhood grows: not in perfection, but in love that chooses to stay.

Is ther...

Real friendships are rarely instant. Sometimes we assume that if it doesn’t “click” right away, it’s not meant to be—but sisterhood is often built slowly, through shared stories, laughs, and even a few awkward silences. This week, we’ll talk about letting go of the pressure for immediate depth and instead embracing the sacred rhythm of friendship that takes root over time. 

Come if you’ve been wondering how to go deeper in your rela...
