Esther Press Online Bible Studies and Book Clubs
Discover the Courageous Faith You’ve Always Wanted
Do you ever feel like you’re just going through the motions with your faith?
You’re so inspired by the incredible stories of Christians throughout history, but when it’s time for you to stand strong and courageously pursue God’s calling on your life, you shrink back in fear. You’re worried what others will think. You’re convinced you don’t have what it takes.
God didn’t create you for a life of fear. He created you for an exciting adventure.
It’s time to stop settling for playing it safe. It’s time to stop prioritizing comfort and convenience (either yours or others’) over the amazing, transformative life God has for you.
Here at Esther Press, we’re on a mission to challenge, encourage, and equip you to step courageously into wherever God is calling you today. Will you join us?
What Is an Esther Press Online Bible Study or Book Club?
Our online community is similar to an in-person Bible study or book club, except it takes place entirely online to fit your schedule.
You don’t have to find a sitter, get dressed up, or drive across town. You don’t have to coordinate schedules, take time off work, cook dinner early, or keep the kids up late.
With Esther Press online Bible studies and book clubs, you have the freedom to read the book at your own pace and participate in the discussion as much or as little as you like, whenever and wherever it’s convenient for you!
How Do Esther Press Online Bible Studies and Book Clubs Work?
Over the course of 5-8 weeks, you’ll read and discuss a new book or Bible study in our private Facebook group. Explore the book’s themes, connect with other women who truly get what you’re going through, and get exclusive content from the author!
Your online host will help guide the discussion, making sure you get the most out of the study possible. But of course, it’s up to you to put in the work. The more you participate in the online discussion and the weekly reading, the more these online studies will help you to grow in your faith and connect you with women who encourage each other to do the same!
Why Join an Esther Press Online Bible Study or Book Club?
When you join an Esther Press online Bible study or book club, you’re joining a group of supportive, Jesus-loving women committed to growing their faith through intentional action—and helping you do the same.
A few perks when you join with Esther Press:
- There’s no membership or sign-up fees. Simply purchase your book, and you’re good to go!
- All our groups take place on Facebook, so you don’t have to download an app, create another log-in, or figure out a new platform.
- You’ll benefit from a dedicated group host who will ask daily questions throughout the study to help you get the most out of the group.
- Our groups are focused on creating real life transformation so you’ll be equipped with doable action steps you can take to move your faith journey forward.
- We’re all about relationships. With Esther Press, you won’t go it alone. Connect with your group host, like-minded women, and even the book author in our small, tight-knit community.

How’d I Miss That?: Gas Pump Confessions, Drive-Thru Obsessions, and Figuring Out What Really Matters
Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, Is this really what it’s supposed to look like?
Maybe your day looks less like purpose and more like reheating coffee, answering the same question twelve times, and wondering where your phone went. (Hint: It’s in your hand.)
Maybe you thought you’d be doing something bigger by now, but you’re mostly keeping everyone fed and the calendar from exploding. Or maybe life just feels messy and ordinary, and you’re wondering if any of it really counts.
In How’d I Miss That? popular podcaster Cynthia Yanof shares the lighthearted, awkward, and occasional should-she-be-telling-us-this? moments that prove God often does His best work right in the middle of our ordinary, messy lives.
Join our newest online book club to discover:
- how God uses small, everyday moments to grow our faith in meaningful ways.
- encouragement to live each day with grace and forgiveness for others—and yourself.
- simple, practical ways to live out extraordinary faith in ordinary life.
- why the moments we’re tempted to overlook may actually matter most.
Together, we’ll laugh at the chaos, swap stories from our own messy lives, and be reminded that God is present in the small moments we often overlook.
