Friends and Sisters – Bible Study Book: Belonging and Relating to One Another in the Family of Faith

God designed us for relationship. The Bible describes the people of God as a family, and Jesus often spoke of His followers as sisters and brothers. In Christ, you are part of a sisterhood that is bound together by faith, love, and a shared purpose. But what does it look like to be sisters in Christ in the midst of a loneliness epidemic, when genuine friendship is harder and harder to find?  

In this 5-week Bible study workbook for women, we’ll reflect on how to cultivate deep, Christ-centered relationships and strengthen our bond as friends and sisters. Through biblical examples and practical application, we’ll explore what the Bible teaches us about loving, caring for, honoring, supporting, and investing in one another for the long haul. And we’ll consider what it looks like to seek out and cultivate friendships in the church, the place where we find true belonging. Whether you’re new to your relationship with Jesus or have walked with Him for years, this study will remind you that you have a place in God’s family and will inspire you to become a better friend and sister.
