A Four-Week Ladies' Bible Study

Paperback Edition

Author: Jamie Rench

Life is full—but joy often feels just out of reach. Joy is a 4-week devotional written by a pastor’s wife for Christian women seeking something deeper than surface happiness. Each week explores a biblical source of joy: abiding, repentance, trust, and selflessness. With daily Scripture, reflection prompts, journaling space, and practical next steps, this devotional will help you draw closer to Christ and experience the kind of joy that doesn’t fade when life gets hard.

Inside this journal-style devotional, you’ll find:

Robust Weekly Devotions

Each week highlights one foundational passage on joy and walks through it over the first two days.

Week 1 — John 15 (Joy through abiding in Christ)

Week 2 — Psalm 32 (The joy of forgiveness)

Week 3 — Matthew 6 (How worry steals our joy)

Week 4 — Philippians 2 (The joy of selflessness)

Daily Guided Bible Studies

Days three through seven offer one passage per day and space for reflection and journaling.

Each day includes:

Theme — A clear, Scripture-driven focus tied to the week’s main truth

Key Verse — Highlighted Scripture that reinforces the day’s theme

Reflection — A short, theological insight with meditative prompts

Journal Prompts — Thoughtful questions to stir deeper reflection

This is a devotional for women who love God’s Word and want more than surface-level encouragement. If you’re looking to grow in joy—not by trying harder, but by drawing closer—this study is for you.
