Courageous Simplicity: Abide in the Simple Abundance of Jesus – Book Review
If you have spent any time reading my blog, you have probably gathered that I love God and His Word. Included among my favorite Bibles is the (in)Courage Devotional Bible because it not only faithfully renders God’s Word but it is designed so beautifully that it refreshes my soul every time I open its pages.
So, I cannot begin to express how excited I was to learn that in 2021, (in)Courage is launching a new line of Bible studies that meet women where they are and help them explore and apply Scripture to their lives.
Courageous Simplicity: Abide In The Simple Abundance Of Jesus is the first release in this new line of Bible studies. While I was surprised to discover that it lacked the pretty colorful graphic elements I associate with the (in)Courage Devotional Bible – artistically, the book takes a more minimalistic approach in keeping with the simplicity theme – from a study perspective, this is the perfect Bible study to kick off your year or to do whenever you need a refreshing word from God.
Courageous Simplicity is a 6-week study that’s written for women who are feeling too busy, tired, overworked and overwhelmed to add anything to their calendars. It’s a plea to set aside all of the busyness that we’ve filled our lives with and an invitation to sit at the feet of Jesus. For those of us who long to turn our burdens over to Him yet don’t quite know how, it’s an exploration of the passages in Scripture that teach us how to cast our cares and anxieties upon Him, a map and compass to the places in Scripture where we can rest and abide in peaceful pastures with Him, and a guide to simpler living through the application of biblical principles.
While it’s structured like a traditional Bible study, with 5 days of readings and questions to be completed over a 6 week period, I’m finding it much more useful to go through the study as a quiet time journaling and reflection tool and letting the words of Scripture sink deep into my parched soul.
Courageous Simplicity speaks to my heart. Chances are good that it will speak to your heart too! I highly recommend this study and can’t wait to see the upcoming studies in this new line!
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
