What if you find yourself in a desolate place of waiting while others all around you are blooming?Desert Blooms: Exploring God's Grace in Seasons of Waiting is about walking with Christ in the barren desert of unfulfilled desires of the heart. This 9 part study will explore the stories of the Bible's eight barren women including Sarah, Hannah, and Elizabeth, among others. Study what lessons God has for us through their hopes, disappointments, struggles and victories amidst the waiting.Completed as an individual or a group study, Desert Blooms asks the tough questions about our heart's desires. The author leads us through a fictional desert and incorporates her struggles with barrenness in this study meant to infuse hope and inspire readers to bloom in the midst of their own desert of waiting.
