Bible Studies

It’s time to start our Walk on Water study! Grab your book and turn to Week One as we dive into our first theme: “Send.” We’ll explore how Jesus sent out His disciples—sometimes “like sheep among wolves.” As the week unfolds, you will discover relatable biblical figures who responded to God’s calling. We’ll see the sharp contrast between a reluctant Moses, who pleaded, “Please send someone else,” and the immediate obedience of Philip and Abraham. There are so many powerful stories to unpack as we learn what it means to “Go” as Jesus commands. Tune in now for an overview of everything coming up in Week One! ------------------------------------------------------ Want to learn more about me and my adorable dog, Toto? 🐾 Check out our story: https://www.julieosborne.com/about For more videos, inspiring stories, and cute dog memes, sign up for our bi-weekly newsletter! ✉️ Sign Up Here: http://eepurl.com/bGW0nD 🔔 And don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to this channel so you don’t miss a thing! ~ CONNECT WITH ME ~ Website: https://www.julieosborne.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorJulieOsborne/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ozandtoto/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/author-julie-osborne/ Thanks for tuning in as we journey through the Bible together—a bit at a time! #bible #biblestudy #scripture #bible101 #bibleteaching #biblefacts #biblestudyforwomen #biblebites #biblebits #JulieOsborne #AuthorJulieOsborne #spiritualgrowth #godsword #faith #christianauthor #dailydevotion #dailydevotional #walkonwater #matthew14 #send #calling #greatcommission #Moses #acts8 #godscalling #matthew28 #matthew2819 #Abraham #fatherabraham

The story of Esther has come to an end—but it is also a beginning. A festival is born! In these final chapters, we witness a complete divine reversal. What was meant to be a day of mourning becomes a day of celebration. There is a common phrase used today to summarize the history of many Jewish holidays, but it perfectly fits the Book of Esther: “They tried to kill us; we won; let’s eat!” Check out this final lesson on Esther 9 and 10 to learn more about the history of the Festival of Purim, a celebration of deliverance that is still observed by the Jewish people today. Whether you're finishing this lesson series or just starting to learn about Queen Esther, this final chapter reminds us that God is always working behind the scenes to turn our mourning into celebration. ------------------------------------------------------ Want to learn more about me and my adorable dog, Toto? 🐾 Check out our story: https://www.julieosborne.com/about For more videos, inspiring stories, and cute dog memes, sign up for our bi-weekly newsletter! ✉️ Sign Up Here: http://eepurl.com/bGW0nD 🔔 And don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to this channel so you don’t miss a thing! ~ CONNECT WITH ME ~ Website: https://www.julieosborne.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorJulieOsborne/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ozandtoto/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/author-julie-osborne/ #bible #biblestudy #scripture #bible101 #bibleteaching #biblefacts #biblestudyforwomen #biblebites #biblebits #JulieOsborne #AuthorJulieOsborne #spiritualgrowth #godsword #faith #christianauthor #Esther #Haman #QueenEsther #BookofEsther #evilplot #Biblestudy #Esther9 #Esther10 #FestivalofPurim #Purim Thanks for tuning in as we journey through the Bible together - a bit at a time!

Haman is gone—but a death threat is still looming. Even though the enemy has been defeated, the edict for the destruction of the Jewish people remains in effect.

Haman went to bed happy—the gallows were built, and his archenemy, Mordecai, was set for execution. But an unexpected shift happened overnight. The king’s interrupted sleep changed the entire trajectory of the story. The next morning, Mordecai wasn't assassinated; he was honored with a royal procession. And who did the king choose to lead it, shouting praises for "Mordecai the Jew" through the streets? Haman himself. How did one sleepless night lead to such a dramatic and humiliating reversal for Haman?

“But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way.” (Daniel 1:8) With this decision, Daniel was refusing the best the kingdom had to offer. Why would a young man who had lost everything—his home, his freedom, his royal position, his identity—turn down the one luxury offered in his captivity? He was choosing plain vegetables and water over the king's feast and perfectly-aged wine. What was Daniel thinking? Join us for this week's Bible Bits message on the Fruit of the Spirit: Self-Control. We'll reveal the story behind Daniel's surprising choice and see how this same steadfast faith empowered Jesus to overcome temptation in the desert. ------------------------------------------------------ Want to learn more about me and my adorable dog, Toto? 🐾 Check out our story: https://www.julieosborne.com/about For more videos, inspiring stories, and cute dog memes, sign up for our bi-weekly newsletter! ✉️ Sign Up Here: http://eepurl.com/bGW0nD 🔔 And don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to this channel so you don’t miss a thing! ~ CONNECT WITH ME ~ Website: https://www.julieosborne.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorJulieOsborne/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ozandtoto/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/author-julie-osborne/ #bible #biblestudy #scripture #bible101 #bibleteaching #biblefacts #biblestudyforwomen #biblebites #biblebits #JulieOsborne #AuthorJulieOsborne #spiritualgrowth #godsword #faith #christianauthor #fruitofthespirit #galatians522 #galatians5 #selfcontrol #holyspirit #holyspiritpower #temptation #Daniel #bookofdaniel #matthew26 #babylonianexile #luke4 #jesustemptation #satan #itiswritten #james47 Thanks for tuning in as we journey through the Bible together - a bit at a time!
