The Godly Kings of Judah by Cynthia Cavanaugh {Bible Study Review}

Blessings Gems!!!

Bible study is my passion! I love it with every fiber of my being. Be it doing a personal book by book or topical study I'm all in. As a major fan of Moody's women's Bible study I am always on the lookout for their new studies by their current writers or by new ones and of course they did not disappoint.

Title: The Godly Kings of Judah

Author: Cynthia Cavanaugh

Age: Adult

Genres: Bible Study

Publication Date: April 5, 2022

Publisher: Moody Publishers

Source: Paperback

Synopsis:

What will your legacy be? 
Long ago, God's people were divided into two kingdoms. The land of Judah—with Jerusalem as its capital—was led by twenty kings, only eight of whom were good. Not even half! What does that tell you? That it's hard to follow God to the end and leave a legacy that's remembered well. 
Bible teacher Cynthia Cavanaugh wants you to meet the good kings of Judah who earned a reputation for godliness and received the Lord's favor. Though their names aren't well known to us, their examples should be celebrated. Cynthia takes you deep into the Word of God, heading into the often-overlooked corners of 1-2 Kings and 1-2 Chronicles to uncover these ancient rulers whose lives—full of ups and downs—have hidden lessons for us today. 
In The Godly Kings of Judah, you'll embark on an 8-week Bible study that leads you through a process of repentance, renewal, and revival. The Old Testament kings will be your companions as you fight the Lord's battles, topple the idols that claw at our hearts, and bring reformation to the holy people of God. Don't miss out on this exciting adventure! Because when all is said and done, you want the legacy of the godly kings to be your own as well: "She did what was right in the Lord's eyes."
My Rating:
This is a perfect study for those looking to get into the Old Testament and the kings of the time. This study focuses on Kings Asa, Jehoshapjat, Joash, Amaziah, Uzziah, Jotham, Hezekiah and Josiah. Some of these kings I was familiar with and others I knew nothing about so this was a perfect balance for me.

An eight week study that takes you through scripture and lifestyles of these king's of influence. With Five days of doing survey (digging out the truth from God's Word), excavate (an analysis and summary) and fieldnotes (interpretation, application). Weekly there is a section to pray what you've read and learned and also a section called artifacts where you can dig a little deeper.

For her first Bible study with Moody Publishers I really enjoyed this and look forward to her writing more in the future. Definitely recommend.

Blessings,

VOTW | Isaiah 41:10 - Ever Present Help

Good morning Gems (& Gents)! This past weekend has been insane in both a good and scary way. I experienced something frightening, but in that situation I felt a sense of peace and contentment that I'd never would have experienced before if my relationship with God wasn't where it is now. As I was thinking of a verse for this week, I came across this one from the book of Isaiah and I knew this was it: Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Such a small, yet powerful verse. This is a command and a promise from our Father whether we are in times of despair or in seasons of gladness. Though told this to the people of Israel, this verse is still true to His children today. Let's start off by breaking down some of the words in this verse shall we: Fear : the Hebrew word is  yare' meaning to cause to frighten ( affright ); to make or be afraid;...

CSB Study Bible for Women {Bible Review}

Good morning loves! I'm starting a new layout when it comes to doing my Bible reviews just because they need a more in-depth post than my book reviews. I created a new way that will help me share more info about each Bible so I hope this helps you all! Today's review is on the The Study Bible for Women in the CSB translation and I am so excited to do this review. I want to first thank B&H Publishing group for the opportunity to review this gorgeous Bible as they sent me this Bible for review. This Bible was release on April 15, 2018, so it's been out for almost a month now. I'm going to start off by sharing with you all what it says on the B&H website: Now available in the Christian Standard Bible (CSB) translation with revised and updated content and a fresh, new interior design, the CSB Study Bible for Women will equip you to reach deep into God’s Word. As the most comprehensive study Bible ever prepared for women and by women, the most powerful asp...

DOI Book Club - Fervent by Priscilla Shirer

Good morning Gems! Today, I'll be sharing with you all one of the exciting things I'll be starting in March and it's a book club! I polled on Facebook and Instagram and had you all vote and the winner was a no-brainer! This is the first Book Club that I’ll be hosting ever and I am so excited. Fervent by Priscilla Shirer won hands down! We’re jumping into the topic of prayer and I’m a big person on reading and learning all that I can about prayer. I don’t know about you all, but my prayer life has its ups and downs. Now for those of you who don’t know, Priscilla Shirer is the actress from the movie War Room ( which I HIGHLY recommend ). She wrote a book for woman based off of the movie. Here’s bit of what to expect from this phenomenal book: “You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t gene...
