With the holidays just around the corner and the new year quickly approaching, we’re ready to gear up for our first online Bible study of 2021— Matchless by Angie Smith! We’ll study the life and love of Jesus together for 8 weeks, starting on January 7.
We live in a world where there’s a lot of confusion about Jesus. Too often people want to shape Him and His message to fit their personal needs or agendas. So how can we know the truth?
Join Matchless author Angie Smith in this 8-session search for truth as she unfolds the story of our matchless Savior—His mission, miracles, and message. Through her signature wit and accessible style, Angie unpacks Scripture in a way that’s easy to understand, regardless of how long you’ve been studying the Bible (making this study a great option for new believers!). This study will deepen your understanding of Jesus through biblical, historical, and cultural insight and help you see Him less as an iconic figure and more as an intimate friend.

So how will this work?
We’ll study together on our online Bible study website: onlinestudy.lifeway.com.
If you have a teen girl in your life, we’d love to have her join us too! The video teaching we’ll be watching together each week is the women’s teaching, but our friends at LifeWay Girls have provided a guide for how to watch and discuss the videos with the teen girl in your life! Click here for the guide!

Because you’ll be logging in, you’ll have the ability to track your personal progress as you study and see which sessions you’ve watched! And, you’ll be the first one to know about future online Bible studies.

**A note about the videos: We will be offering the entire Bible study videos online for free for a limited time. Videos will be available until March 11, 2021 (11:59 PM CT), allowing some breathing room for those who join in late or miss a couple of weeks. After that time you can rent or purchase the video sessions here.
I had just purchased this study and started it. I was on day 4 when I got the email about the online study. This study was one I felt God calling me to do when if first came out. Now I feel as though He is telling me to wait till the start of the new year. I have never done an online bible study. I am very excited !
Sherica, how exciting!I just love how God speaks to us this way. We’ll see you in January!
Angie’s Bible study “Seamless” was amazing. A wonderful overview of the entire Bible. I’m so excited to be a part of her newest study “Matchless” on our Beautiful Savior, Jesus Christ. I know we will not be disappointed!
I just took our first group of women through this. It was a good time of study. Seamless is my all time favorite study. I am hoping to lead a group through Seamless then take a 2 week break and do Matchless with the same group. Thought doing the online study with some other Women might bring so new insight.
Very excited to start this Study with everyone in the new year! Thanks for the opportunity!
I’m so graced to do this next year

I signed up for the last Matchless study received my workbook but never did find out when it started. I thought maybe it was just on Facebook and since I’m not on Facebook maybe that’s why I didn’t get anything.
I’m happy that it’s coming again. Please tell me what I need to do to get it.
Thank you.
