Introducing The Abide Sessions
Can I walk with you in 2026?
Introducing The Abide Sessions
A premium spiritual formation membership designed for women who are tired of spiritual to-do lists that leave them more anxious than anchored, and who are ready to build a steadier, more rooted life with Christ.
If you’ve ever thought, “I want to grow spiritually, but I need structure… and I’d love someone to walk with me,” this is your invitation.
This isn’t another Bible study that leaves you overwhelmed, behind, and silently ashamed.
This is a guided trellis—a place to tether your soul so you can grow with intention.
Inside The Abide Sessions, you’ll receive:
60-minute live Zoom sessions every other week
I’ll lead you through Scripture, help you practice discernment, and create space for honest conversation and real formation. We will gather every other Thursday at 2 pm EST / 1 CST / 12 MT / 11 PST.
A free digital copy of the study we’re using
We will begin with Is the Voice in My Head God or Just Me?—my hands-on Bible study workbook for learning to discern God’s voice. The PDF is included in your membership.
Guided rhythms of abiding
Gentle, sustainable practices that bring clarity, peace, and emotional steadiness back into your days.
A Christ-centered community committed to growth
No algorithms. No noise. Just women wanting to abide more deeply with Christ and live more intentionally in the everyday reality of their lives.
Replay library & ongoing access
Can’t join live every week? You’ll have access to watch anytime.
Why Now?
Because you’re tired of cobbling together spiritual growth from Instagram posts and podcast snippets.
Because your plate is full, but your soul feels empty.
Because another year of trying to grow on your own sounds exhausting.
Think of The Abide Sessions as a sturdy trellis—something to steady you, guide your growth, and give you something solid to hold when you feel untethered.
How It Works
The Abide Sessions continue year-round with new studies launching seasonally, Zoom gatherings every other week (while in session), and a private chat on Substack where you can ask me questions and interact with other members.
We incorporate rest into our schedule during the most hectic times of the year for moms: May, July, and December. This is a time to put what you’re learning into practice while you focus on your family. However, you’re always welcome to engage at the pace that serves you best
Abide Session One begins January 15, 2026 and runs through May 7, 2026, with my Bible Study, Is the Voice in My Head God or Just Me? This 9-week study unfolds across our every-other-week Zoom gatherings, allowing time to reflect and practice between sessions. You’ll receive your study materials immediately upon joining, and you can start preparing before our first gathering if you’d like (though it’s not required).
The remainder of 2026:
Rest: May 8–May 31
Abide Session Two (Topic TBD): June 1–June 30
Rest: July
Abide Session Three (John 15-Abiding in Christ): August 1–November 30
Rest: December
First Zoom gathering: Thursday, January 15, 2026 at 2 pm EST / 1 CST / 12 MT / 11 PST
We Begin with the Study That Has Shaped Me More Deeply Than Any Other
Is the Voice in My Head God or Just Me?
In this study, you will consult and apply hundreds of Bible passages related to hearing God’s voice so you can…
✓ See the different—and sometimes shocking—ways God spoke to His people throughout Scripture.
✓ Study the lives of Bible heroes like Noah, Moses, Elijah, David, and Daniel to discover why they heard God clearly and often (and so can you!).
✓ Uncover The 5 Keys to Becoming a Good Listener.
✓ Discern the distinct characteristics of God’s voice so you can easily recognize every “counterfeit.”
✓ Learn to recognize the voice of the flesh and the voice of Satan so you can effectively silence each one.
✓ Understand why God is sometimes silent—and how His silence doesn’t necessarily mean something is wrong.
My prayer is that you will not only learn how God speaks, but also learn to hear God speak to you.
The Price
You can join monthly or annually:
Monthly: $29 (cancel anytime)
Annually: $249 (Annual pricing reflects the nine months we’re actively in session, with built-in seasons of rest + a discount for joining annually.)
Common Questions
What if I’m already a paid subscriber?
I’ve grandfathered you in at your current subscription rate. I sent you an email explaining your options and next steps. If you did not receive that email or if you have questions, let me know!
What if I miss a week?
No problem. Every session is recorded and added to your member library. Watch on your own time.
What if I join mid-session?
You’re welcome to join at any point throughout the year. You’ll have access to all previously recorded Zoom calls and study materials when you join.
What if I’m in a different time zone or the live time doesn’t work for me?
You’re welcome to join and use the replays and the private Substack chat as your primary ways of engaging.
Is this for beginners or more mature Christians?
Both. If you’re longing to hear God more clearly and grow more intentionally, you belong here.
Do I need to read the book before we start?
Nope. We’ll work through it together, week by week.
You Might Be Hesitant to Join… and I Get It
Maybe you’re thinking…
“I don’t want one more commitment.”
That’s why we meet only twice a month, with built-in breaks and full rest in May, July, and December. No hustle. No hurry. Just consistency and accountability—two things you need.
“Online communities stress me out.”
Samsies! Our private Substack chat (available on the Substack App or on your computer) is completely optional, quiet, and pressure-free. No constant notifications, no expectation to share. If you only want emails and Zoom meetings, you can ignore the chat and never open the Substack app.
“Zoom meetings also stress me out.”
Are we the same person, you and me? Listen: messy bun, baby on your lap, laundry mountain behind you—no one cares. This isn’t a work meeting. It’s spiritual formation for real life. In fact, you don’t have to talk if you don’t want to, and you can leave your camera off. Zero pressure. Zero performance. I promise.
“Paying for spiritual growth feels weird.”
You’re not paying for access to God—you’re investing in a guided, steady structure that helps you walk more closely with Him. Formation takes time, preparation, and care. It’s okay to invest in these things.
If you’re craving depth, clarity, and a companioned way of abiding, The Abide Sessions may be exactly what your soul has been nudging you toward.
READY TO BUILD A STEADIER, MORE ROOTED LIFE THIS YEAR?
Let’s abide together.
