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.
The Church was established by Jesus, is sustained by Jesus, and rests on Him as its foundation.
Discussion Question: In light of today’s reading, how can you live out the truth that we are the people of God?
Take time to reflect on your Scripture reading and today’s question. Share what you are learning with others in the community in the comments.

It is sometimes hard to honor the church in the way I want to. For someome who’s felt like an outsider for a long time thanks to my beliefs, understandings, and even identity, the church can be a complicated place to be. However, I find comfort in the core truth of what the church is: a new convenant in Christ’s blood, not established by human hands. A community of faith where each person has the indwelling spirit. A place were the outsider is welcome, drawn near by the great goodness and mercy of Christ. I can live this out by extending that welcome, that trust, and that heart of humility to my brothers and sisters without fearing their rejection.

It’s showing me to be humble in knowing that I was adopted and that without His grace and the blood of Jesus I will be nothing in His kingdom today … I am so thankful for Jesus and His act of redemption which welcomes sinners like me into His Kingdom… I need to now let His words and the Spirit of God move through me each and every day to be obedient to Him and to live fully in His covenant
