Bless These Lips

I've worked through other Bible studies by Sharla Fritz and always found them to be insightful and well-written, and this is no exception. It's written specifically for women, and each week focuses on a different "lip product." Following the routine of an actual lip makeover, Sharla creatively applies each step to a biblical principle throughout the chapter. (For example, Week 1 is "Exfoliate: Scrub with Forgiveness.") I especially enjoyed Day 5 of each week, where she walks participants through a "LIP Study" of a particular passage (Look for the facts, Interpret the meaning, Pursue the Application). I also love the technique she teaches on Day 4 of Step 7, “Be Still.” It’s a unique and helpful way to meditate on a verse from Scripture. Each lesson took me maybe 15-20 minutes, which I found to be a good length. It is written as a small-group Bible study, so some of the questions are a bit trite when you’re working through it without a group. The first question of each day is clearly designed to start discussion amongst a group and get people comfortable talking. (Example: “Tell us about your favorite lip product.”) My only issue with this book (and this is a common complaint for me) is that the formatting doesn’t allow enough space for writing answers! I had to write down the sides of the page or on the bottom to fit my answers. But formatting aside, the content is fantastic. Ladies, this is a great study to consider!

Our group really enjoyed this study! We were truly blessed by the lessons and the selected Scriptures. We all learned so much about how to use our lips and mouths to glorify God, His love, grace, and mercy! We are now more equipped for Mission Possible! We highly recommend this study! It's a study we can use as a resource book for Christian living!

We just completed this study in our Ladies' Bible Study Group and I cannot say how eye-opening this one is! I can tell you, for me, it changed my prayer life, and my mouth. I think everyone should get this and do it. It can be life-changing. Two thumbs up, Sharla! Great study.

We did this as a group and it was great!
