ICYMI, Priscilla Shirer’s new Bible study, Elijah, releases January 4, and we’re counting down the days until it’s here. But, we’ve been dreaming up something special with Priscilla that we couldn’t wait any longer to tell you about!
Starting today, registration is open for the Elijah online Bible study experience, which will start Tuesday, February 16. This will be different from our typical online Bible study for a few reasons, so here’s how this will work! (If you still have questions after reading this post, check out these FAQs.)
For the first time ever, you’ll be able to purchase everything you need to study Elijah with us all in one bundle. Whether you want the print Bible study book or eBook to follow along, these $24.99 bundles come with:
- Bible study book or eBook (your choice!)
- Teaching video access, released weekly starting February 16
- Online community discussions with the Going Beyond Ministries team and women around the world
- Exclusive bonus content from Priscilla Shirer!
Already preordered your Bible study book? Don’t worry! We’re also offering an option to purchase just online video access for $9.99.
With the holidays right around the corner, you can also give the Elijah online Bible experience to your friends, family, or small group besties! You can give the Print Book + Video or Video Only options to a friend. (The eBook + video option is not available for gifting.) Check out our FAQs here for step-by-step instructions on how to gift the online experience!
We’re so excited to be able to study NEW Bible study content with you, Priscilla’s Going Beyond Ministries team, and thousands of other women in 2021. We’re already praying that the message of Elijah encourages and challenges us in the new year!
To learn more about this study, watch the video below or click here.
Here are the rest of the details you’ll need to participate in this study:
- Elijah is 7 weeks long, and you can plan for the videos to be 30-40 minutes long, with a shorter final session.
- We’ll post a new video session on LifewayWomen.com/ElijahOBS on Tuesdays at midnight CT (barring any technical difficulties). Once you log in, you will see the available sessions.
- For the first week, you’ll watch the video first and then complete the Week 1 material in the study book before we meet again!
- Go to your email and add “churchresources@email1.lifeway.com” to your contacts. This way, our emails are less likely to go to your spam folder.
- Videos will be available until May 16, 2021 (11:59 PM CT), allowing some breathing room for those who join in late or miss a couple of weeks.

My video is not showing up online with Lifeway. It says that I am not registered for any current studies but I purchased the bundle.
Hi Kenya, Thank you for joining our community! I would reach out to our customer service team. They will be able to help you! They can best contacted one of the following ways: 1) email customerservice@lifeway.com, 2) chat here: http://lfwy.co/Bwje30qhvAd, or 3) call us at 1-800-458-2772.
Here’s also a quick link to the Elijah OBS log in page: https://onlinestudy.lifeway.com/v/ElijahOBS
Let me know if you need anything else!
If I purchase the leader kit with the books and DVD, can I share the videos on Facebook live?
Hi Angela! Way to tackle leading a group through Elijah! That’s fantastic! It is okay as long as it’s a private group and the video is taken down after the study is over. Here are a few good reminders of what NOT to do:
Email video files
Publicly post or share video content
Leave video content up and available without an end date
Let me know if you have any other questions!
For clarity, I have read that videos will be available on Lifeway’s site, but that Priscilla will lead the study from a special instagram account. Sounds confusing, please clarify.
Also, the dates listed for Session 6 & 7 are Mondays. Is this accurate since the rest of the dates are Tuesdays?
Hi Tanyai, I’m glad you’ll be joining us for the Elijah Bible study! Yes! In addition to the opportunity to discuss the teaching videos with thousands of women on the online Bible study site each week, there is also an Instagram where Priscilla will be going live throughout our study together! Be sure you’re following @elijahonlinebiblestudy to hear encouragement from Priscilla and for quotes, verses, and questions from the study you can share with others. Also, the videos are released on Tuesdays and we will make sure to update the two Monday dates you are seeing. Sorry for that confusion.
Is the $9.99 video access a one tome fee, or each week fee during the study. Can you watch a given video more than once…like trying to relisten in case of missing something in the notetaking.
I already have my book.
Hi Lois, The $9.99 is a one time fee! With that purchase you’ll have access to the Elijah videos beginning February 16. Each Tuesday, the video for the next session will be released to the online community and will remain up until May 16, 11:59pm CT. Once you see a video, you can watch it as many times as you’d like up until May 16. Here’s a quick link for you:

I’m so glad you already have your book!
There was a 20% promotional code at the beginning but after I read everything it disappeared and I can’t get it back, how can I get that code back?
Hi Kathy! I’m so glad you’re interested in the new Bible study Elijah! I’m excited about participating in this study right along side all of you in this community! You’re right. When you visit Lifeway’s site, a 20% code pops up. This does not apply to the new Elijah study. There are some bundles that give you you a bit of a discount for the studies, videos, and exclusive content from Priscilla herself. That information can be found here:
