Rhonda Stoppe: Rhonda  Stoppe  on  Focus  on  the  Family  Minute  explaining  how 

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,950
Rhonda Stoppe: a  women's  Bible  study  changed  her  life.

4
00:00:11,130 --> 00:00:12,750
Speaker 1: So  they  invited  me  to  a  Bible  study.  I'm  like, "

5
00:00:12,750 --> 00:00:14,370
Speaker 1: I  don't  need  another  Bible  study.  I  just  wanna  be 

6
00:00:14,370 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: a  better  mom."  But  what  I  realized  when  I  went 

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,750
Speaker 1: to  that  study  and  I  was  the  only  young  mom 

8
00:00:18,750 --> 00:00:22,829
Speaker 1: in  there,  these  women  were  real  and  they  were  genuine 

9
00:00:22,950 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: and  they  talked  about  in  scripture  what  we  were  studying 

10
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,350
Speaker 1: what  they  were  at-  in  that  moment  being  convicted  of 

11
00:00:28,740 --> 00:00:32,129
Speaker 1: and  they  shared  from  their  successes  and  their  failures.  I 

12
00:00:32,130 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: can  write  a  letter  to  my  younger  self.  It  does 

13
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,260
Speaker 1: no  one  any  good.  But  if  I  write  it  and 

14
00:00:37,260 --> 00:00:39,090
Speaker 1: give  it  to  the  next  generation,  which  is  what  I 

15
00:00:39,090 --> 00:00:41,190
Speaker 1: attempted  to  do  with  the  book  Moms  of  the  Bible, 

16
00:00:41,580 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: now  my  stories,  the  stories  of  moms  in  the  Bible, 

17
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,780
Speaker 1: the  stories  of  moms  in  history  can  mentor  the  next 

18
00:00:48,780 --> 00:00:51,300
Speaker 1: generation  and  it's  relational  and  it's  real.
