What People Are Saying About Our Studies

Transforming Lives

{

“Dr. Richard Blackaby has a powerful way of making the Bible come alive by facilitating transforming discussions.

This study has challenged me in so many ways and has helped to strengthen my faith. My walk with the Lord is deeper and richer because of what I am learning in this study. I love hearing the insights and wisdom contributed by the other women attending the study.

Lethia Owens
Founder, Game Changers International

This message today hit me like a ton of bricks.

I can’t even begin to tell you what this Rooted Sisters group means to me. This message today hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve been spending so much time getting out and meeting people to build my network since I’m not from St Louis, that I have neglected the reason that I came here in the first place. I came here for my now amazing, sweet husband Paul and his incredible children (our children) Andrew and Sarah. I am not being present for him and being still with my God. Ugh! Thank you a million times over for introducing me to this special group of women who love each other and our incredible God. YOU are such a blessing in my life. Love you forever for the gift of this group. It means so much.
