1 GOD Strong: A Military Wife s Spiritual Survival Guide By Sara Horn Wives of Faith Founder and President
2 Welcome Thank you for downloading this free supplemental study guide! This guide is designed to be used with my book, GOD Strong: A Military Wife s Spiritual Survival Guide, and can be used with both the Group Guide (also available for download at godstrongbook.com) or by itself. It s been written to help military wives go even deeper into what it means to truly be GOD Strong taking the spiritual truths we ve discussed in the book and figuring out how to apply those truths to our everyday lives. You will find the design of this guide pretty straightforward: Each chapter features five days of suggested scripture and journal prompts to help your own personal study and quiet time with God. For deeper discussion opportunities, check out the Group Guide. There are two ways you can use the book with this guide. The first option is to read the book all the way through and then use this guide to reflect more deeply into what you ve just read. The second option is to follow the reading prompts for each day. You will read a little bit of the book at a time and then combine that with additional scripture reading and time for your own personal reflection. Make sure you have your Bible and a notebook or a journal nearby. May God bless your time in His Word and show you His incredible strength as you begin to uncover why none of us have to be Armies of One when we are GOD Strong! Sara Horn 2
