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.


Followers of Jesus Christ are called to pursue oneness as we remain connected to our Triune God, the source, sustainer, and perfect example of unity.

As you reflect on Scripture today, take time today to pray for brothers and sisters in Christ around the globe. Share what you are praying for the global Church along with your response to the reading in the comments.

    I will pray specifically for a dear friend who lives in Africa as a missionary with her husband and family. I pray for unification within their relationships with the followers there in their church. I pray for the authenticity of the locals culture and Jesus’s truth to be valued and seen for it

  2. Sarah Dooley says:

    I am praying for my own boldness in sharing the Gospel through my words and simple actions in my daily life — I an praying that kindness, gentleness and patience become more second nature to me. I am also praying for my brothers and sisters around the world to strive for the same things, and be united in Christ during these times of constant conflict.

    I am still so confused this is all so new to me

  4. Meredith Jones says:

    I pray for my own humility and kindness. Gossip is something that comes natural to me and I want to repent and lift others up instead of causing division.

  5. Emma Simmons says:

    praying for less hate and kind forgiving hearts full of love

  6. Miri am says:

    I pray that churches across the world focus on the saving grace of the gospel that is salvation through Christ alone. It’s so easy to get dragged into other debates but we are all united in our belief that Christ lived, was without sin, was sacrified and has risen

  7. Stephanie Schoening says:

    Praying for more humility, and open hearts and far less hate and judgement

  8. Lynda Miller says:

    I agree the church needs to step up and lead by example. The church needs to be a voice of reason and love in a world that is upside down. We have to be courageous and be a vital part to the solutions not part of the problem. We have recently experienced a tough time and people walked away. But God was cleaning house from the top down. I was so disenchanted and hurt that I was going to leave. But again God intervened and told me to stay put because He had put me there for such a time as this. Now we have a new Pastor who works in step with his wife. She is also a wonderful leader. The church is growing again and the Holy Ghost is present and working in many lives.!
