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.

God is just. He instructs us on how to live a good life. He chose us and laid ahead of the life we ought to live for us to live life fully. If we fall short of His commandments, He is just to guide us back to Him. By God’s grace, we aim to live life according to His Will and by God’s grace we stand up when we fall away from it.
Does anyone else find the statements of 1 John 1:5-10 and then Ephesians 5:1-17 confusing next to each other? We are liars if we say we have no sin and then we should not have any impurity even heard of amongst us? I know Christ’s sacrifice makes us positionally pure because of our relationship with Him and confession of Him as Savior but I take the Ephesians passage as a call to be sinless. Help me Bible scholars!
The attribute that stood out to me was that God is all knowing. That he knew us before the beginning, he chose us.
God is good and the only source for goodness and light. There is no goodness apart from God. Some things may appear to be good, but if they are not from God, they are not good because only God is good. If there is any good in us, it is because God has called us as his own and is working through us.
God’s attributes of patience and kindness. He continually draws us in….warning us yet giving instructions for how to live….over and over….so patient
God is holy.
I love this!! Time is so fleeting!!
What stands out to me about God’s character is that He is merciful and graceful. We must strive to be like Jesus everyday, but we will fail. Even though we fail, God cares so much about us to forgive us when we repent. He loves us regardless of our faults. He has washed us clean.
