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.


In Christ, the people of the Church are holy, set apart for a purpose. We are called to pursue lives of holiness as a changed people.

Discussion Question: What attributes of God stand out to you in today’s reading? 

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.

  1. Katherine Herrington says:

    God is a God of actions and therefore we should also be a people of action. People should see his holiness and love through our love and kindness to them.

  2. Eva Suggs says:

    God desires us to be His. But without acting on our faith, our faith and relationship with Him is dead. Recently coming out of Valentine’s Day (and being single as a Pringle) I love Leviticus 20:26- God said BE MINE.

  3. Tiffany Reynoso says:

    We are set apart not by what we do but by His purpose. This speaks so much to me on God’s character. He chose his people out of love and not by what they do.

  4. Laura Schirillo says:

    He is a just God he is holy

    13 But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible,
    14 for anything that becomes visible is light.
    What I personally read here is so important- this specific passage tells me that once we confess our sins (which were once in the darkness, confession brings them to light) that they are now visible, and anything visible IS LIGHT. Meaning that my own sins will now be part of my redemption story of grace and God’s mercy. We are so fearful when our sins are exposed, what others will think, especially the darkest sins, the “worst” sins. But those are the sins that when others find out your were about to be forgiven from they can see that ‘your God’ is a God of true grace.
