"I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ."
(2 Corinthians 11:3)
My best friend Dana and I have done many bible studies over the years to bring us closer to the women that God intends for us to be. We have strived to become women of excellence, faith, and freedom. This week, we are embarking on a new adventure...
Becoming a woman of simplicity.
We are not entirely sure what this will be like, though I am sure we will not be like Quaker women by the end of this 11 week journey. And by no means do we hope to "master" what it means to be a woman of simplicity. In fact, I'm pretty sure I could repeat all of Cynthia Heald's studies for the rest of my life and learn something new every time. But this will be an exciting new quest and I am very much looking forward to how this is going to rock my world.
And it is entirely possible that I will regret that statement a few weeks from now.
Here's to simplicity...
