Teresas Bible studies are some of the best on the market. Not only has she found a way to teach biblical truth with profound wisdom, but she does so in such a winsome and relatable way. This resource is a treasure!
KAT ARMSTRONG, author of No More Holding Back and The In-Between Place
Teresa, my pink-haired theologian, I want to hug you for writing these studies. You have shared practical, personal, and challenging ways to make the Bible come alive. When a smart woman chases after the heart of God, we all win.
TRICIA LOTT WILLIFORD, author of You Can Do This and Just. You. Wait.
In a noisy world filled with opinion, it can be difficult to cut through the clutter to find the voice of God and His vision for our lives. Plus, lets face it... the Bible is both intriguing and, at the same time, intimidating. Teresa does a beautiful job of taking us into Gods heart by walking us through His Word. Her guided studies are for any woman who is wrestling with a sense of direction and believing in her worth. By taking us through the Scriptures in a practical, personal, and powerful way, she equips us to own our now and step boldly into our next.

With a relatable voice, Teresa makes studying the Bible approachable for women at any stage of faith. The Get Wisdom Bible Studies are a 360-degree look at Gods Word with historical contexts, word studies, hands-on application, and commentary for each days devotion. The studies are timely with varied messages of practicing contentment, trusting God in hard times, and leading the next generation. Teresa is serious about knowing God and how His character changes His peoplethe reader is not only encouraged to learn but to live the truths in these Bible studies.

Get ready for a Bible study that breaks the mold. Self-proclaimed Bible nerd Teresa Swanstrom Anderson has a passion for Scripture that is contagious. But dont you dare think this is a nerdy approach to study. Her warm and approachable style feels like a conversation with a wise and humble friend. Along the way, she will challenge you to pick up your Bible as she weaves linguistics, history lessons, and personal stories around a passage. I cant wait to recommend this series to women in our church.

To the woman who thinks shes not enough
who lives in the margins
who feels too much or too small
who thinks her story is too hard and her life is too messy:
You are worthy. You are needed. You are loved. Just as you are.
Rise up, dear friend. Step into the story God is writing.
Hes inviting you into great things.
