Hey, friends! Whether you’re new to our OBS community or have been with us for several Online Bible Studies, I’m so happy we’re doing this study together! My name is Laurie McClure, and I’m the editor at FaithGateway, a Bible student, leader of Online Bible Studies, and mama of five nearly grown kids. I love cooking, going to the beach, museums, and the movies—and taking day trips to new towns and beaches. I'm a jeans-and-flip-flops kind of girl, and I love Jesus and my Bible. I'm so glad you're joining us for this awesome study!
Each week of the study, I’ll connect with you by email like this, and we will also have discussions in an exclusive online community...more info coming soon!
I've got my study guide, and I'm counting the days until the start of our next study, Making Peace with What I Can't Control by Lysa TerKeurst! All of us at the FaithGateway team are prayerfully expectant for what the Lord will teach each of us. It's going to be incredible!

If you haven't already purchased your study resources, what are you waiting for? The Making Peace with What I Can't Control study guide is the best companion resource for this study. Inside, you'll find group discussion questions and personal Bible study between sessions for reflection and application.
Over the course of this six-session video Bible study, you'll dig deeply into Scripture to discover how to hand over to God what was always His to carry.
Making Peace with What I Can't Control will equip you to:
✔️Identify the core fears that fuel you to reach for control but only compound the chaos.
✔️Know when you’re crossing the line from healthy responsibility to fear-based control.
✔️Recognize specific tactics of the enemy that keep you in spiritual confusion.
✔️Stop allowing the decisions of others to steal your peace.
✔️Wrestle honestly with Lord about hard questions like, Why aren’t you doing more to change this person or these circumstances?
It is possible to live with less fear, worry and anxiety—and to surrender to God what was never yours to carry.
I don't know about you, but I'm pumped!!
When you purchase the study guide, you'll also receive lifetime streaming access to all six videos, so you can watch them on your own or as many times as you'd like.

(1) Making Peace with What I Can't Control hardcover book - JUST released! The companion book to the study: In Making Peace with What I Can't Control: Find Relief from the Exhaustion of Overthinking, Trying to Fix Others, and Wanting to Figure It All Out, Lysa addresses the tension so many of us live in, where it seems like the Lord isn't paying attention and the only reasonable option is to take matters into our own hands.
She shows us how to:
✔️Identify the core fears that fuel us to reach for control but only compound the chaos.
✔️Know when we're crossing the line from healthy responsibility into the dangerous territory of fear-driven control.
✔️Recognize specific tactics of the enemy that keep us in spiritual confusion (about God), fueled by emotional exhaustion (from the relentlessness of life).
✔️Stop allowing the decisions of others to rob our peace by learning what to do when we feel tempted to inappropriately intervene, rescue, or control the narrative.
✔️Wrestle honestly with the Lord about hard questions like, Why aren't You doing more to change this person or these circumstances? and I didn't see You do it then, so how do I know You'll do it now?
(1) Come Close to Jesus Devotional - The perfect devotional companion for your study on surrendering control to Jesus!
Jesus longs for you to come close. Not just for answers or blessings, but to experience His peace—because He is the only one who can calm us, strengthen us, and give us the perspective we need.
Join Lysa TerKeurst as she shares powerful prayers, devotional teachings, and practical ways to draw near to the Lord.
Come Close to Jesus is filled with prewritten prayers to help still your thoughts, calm your heart, and find guidance in times of need—but most important, to help you spend time with the Savior who loves you more than you can imagine. Whether you struggle with getting distracted during your quiet time, finding the “right” words to say, or bringing your honest thoughts to the Lord, this book was created specifically to help you connect with Him on a deeper level.
Through these pages, Lysa shares her personal journey in growing her prayer life both through seeking the Lord diligently and walking through hard seasons with Him. In Come Close to Jesus, you’ll receive:
✔️Lysa’s reflections and devotional teachings on prayer
Her own guided prayers for you to follow
✔️Scriptural prayers for specific relationships and situations
✔️Bible verses to teach and encourage you
✔️“Prayer in Action” steps to help you pray and incorporate this wisdom into your daily life
