When's the last time you called your girlfriends, stockpiled bags of fried-not-baked junk food and soda, and made a running start for your Bible? Never? Don't think you're ready for that kind of journey? Well, how many miles have you walked in your girlfriends' shoes? And they in yours? How many bad perms and broken hearts have grown out and mended because someone had a story to share? Would it really be so different to walk with Abraham and see what he has to offer us about faith? Or the Samaritan and her story of identity? Peter lays as good a path for discipleship as Paul does for contentment. And Jesus, it could be said, outdoes them all with His trail of purpose for the church. You know that anything you and the girls do together just makes you all stronger. So stow the trepidation and instead grab the girls and hold on for the ride of your lives!
