BY She Reads Truth

Since 2012, She Reads Truth has maintained a singular mission: to be women in the Word of God every day. Ten years later, our community includes “Shes” from across the globe, but our mission hasn’t changed.

Reading Scripture together is the centerpiece of what we do at She Reads Truth. As we spend time as a community reading This Is The Church, we encourage you to start by reading the daily Scripture on your  own. Then join us here to engage and encourage one another as we respond to what we’ve read. Each day for this series, we’ll include a brief summary of the reading along with a prompt for conversation.


Christ calls His Church to herald the good news to each other, our communities, and the world. 

As you reflect on Scripture today, take time today to pray for those who don’t yet know Christ as Savior. Share how you are praying for them along with your response to the reading.

    I prayed the Lord would let me speak His name at work today (I work at a school), and I actually got to show screenshots of this exact devotional in an ice breaker this morning!!!! So crazy!!! The Lord is good!

    i will pray for those that need to be led in my path for me to spread the gospel to them

    I’m praying for those who may have grown up surround my Christians in the church but haven’t made their relationship with the Lord personal!! I pray that the Lord would bring them in and show it’s how much he loves and cares for each of them!

  6. Marina Tieken says:

    I pray for my Son Josh. May his eyes be open to the truth of the Word! The Word is truth. I am believing that generational strongholds will be broken! He will be the head and not the tail in his life, work and family in Jesus name!!!

    I pray first for my young daughter. I pray that the seeds that are being planted by her dad and I, and at Sunday school and AWANA, will be watered by the Spirit and bear fruit that leads to her accepting and believing in Christ as her Savior. I also pray for my MIL, FIL, SIL, and BIL and his wife, that the Spirit would move undeniably in their hearts so that they would also come to accept and believe in Christ as their Savior.

    My response to the reading is to pray for boldness to tell others of the truth of the Gospel. I’m not ashamed of the Gospel, but too often I’m not bold in sharing it. I also pray for discernment from the Holy Spirit, for the right words at the right time, and also for Him to provide clear opportunities of when to speak.

    Praying for a particular family member who has walked away. Praying for other family members to have a relationship with the one true King.
