Don’t know where to begin? Stand in the Gap partners with YouVersion to produce Bible study plans. So far, we’ve published 9 plans primarily for widows and/or the people who serve them.
(Stay tuned: Plan #10 is set to release in early November! It’s a practical, personal plan called “Holidays and Grief” that blends testimonies and advice for people who are grieving this holiday season. Follow us on YouVersion so you don’t miss a plan!)
Last year, we published our only 30-day plan, called “When God Shows Up: Real Stories of Faith”. This devotional crosses all three of Stand in the Gap’s programs, with testimonies from widows, young adults aging out of foster care, and women transitioning out of prison.
Through stories of hope, scripture, and practical steps, you’ll witness how God meets his people in their hardest moments. As you journey through these stories, may your faith grow, your perspective expand, and may you gain the courage to share your own testimony.
Working with YouVersion
YouVersion allows us to meet the people we serve right where they are.
Our partnership with YouVersion has empowered us to minister to over 40,000 people in 23 countries and territories. These plans have provided material for existing small groups to discuss and inspiration for widows in areas not currently served by Stand in the Gap for Widows.
Our plans for widows cover topics like loneliness, relationship shifts, and solo parenting. They are written by widows and/or our Stand in the Gap for Widows staff. Each day is centered around a scripture and many feature both video and written material.
Over the course of the years serving widows, we’ve realized how few resources widows have to address these practical, universal, and vulnerable topics. And we’ve made it our mission to leave “No Widow Alone” with these questions, feelings, and hurts.
Spend November in the Word of God
Whether you use a Stand in the Gap plan or not, what better way to spend November than committing to be in the Word of God?! Join us this November as we seek God in a place where we know He can be found—the Bible!
