thoughts from us

We wanted to record our thoughts from each meeting. These words and thoughts are from the ladies of the first meeting.



"The first gathering of the GBG brought a lot of hope and comfort to me. I feel like there is so much good that is going to come from the GBG! As women, we have a lot coming at us each day and a lot of negativity that can bring us down. I’m excited by the fact that we now have a group of women coming together in Christ to share our struggles and joys with! As women, we unfortunately have the reputation of being unfaithful to one another through gossip, jealousy, insecurities, etc. But I’m proud to be a part of a group that is ready to be the exception, and ready to show the world what true Christian women look like! I pray for strength in our group and each and every one of us because nothing is going to frustrate Satan more than a group of Christian women coming together in prayer, worship, charity, and fellowship. He’s going to throw whatever he’s got at us to make us fail whether it is putting nay sayers in our path, trying to hinder us from making it to class, or bringing negativity to our group. Luckily, our God is much bigger than he is! We have started a wonderful journey together ladies! I pray that our group continues to grow in numbers along with spiritually! I can’t wait to see how the Lord brings us together and uses us in the future! Onward Christian Soldiers ;)"

"What I got from our very first GBG mtg...INSPIRATION! It's such an awesome feeling to look around a room and see beautiful women with such big hearts & readiness to grow in their faith & relationship with God. It's inspiring to know even above all that, we have an urgency to spread his love/light to others. God bless our sweet little group!!"

"Last night I really wanted to take in as much as I could. I have been needing and wanting to be a part of a bible study for awhile now. So happy the Lord put all you sweet girls in my life. I know together with God first we will do great things. So, I guess out of everything last night what hit me the hardest is I need to stop and put God first! Take time out of my day for him. Also it was a great feeling to know all the ladies sitting around the table were just like me. Wife, mom, friend, etc. and you all struggle daily with the same things I do. I know the Lord has great things in-store for us! Thanks so much for inviting me Jamie!!"

"Monday night was a nice reminder of the fact that every single minute counts in our walk with God. It's easy to let life get in the way, but we need to continue to pursue our relationship with Him every minute of every day. There is no greater task!"
Kellie Kegley


"Our first GBG was a discussion on relationships. We discussed how having a relationship with God and having faith in Him can improve all other relationships. As I was sitting there listening I couldn't help but think how awesome this group of girls I was sitting with was and how excited I am to start relationships with some of these girls and to strengthen relationships with others.

"I was blessed to have so many amazing girlfriends, but I had no idea the plan he had in store for all of us. I am very thankful he guided me to start this group and to have the girlfriends to be so supportive and involved. Monday night helped me to remember where my husband and I need to stand in life as putting God first, and showing our little boy to do the same. I am also so eager to get out and help anyone we can! I pray God will lead us right to his other children who need a helping hand."
