About the author

Priscilla Shirer is a wife and a mom first. But put a Bible in her hand and a message in her heart and you’ll see why thousands flock to her conferences and dive into her Bible study series’ and books each year.

A graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary, Priscilla holds a Master’s degree in Biblical Studies and considers it a privilege to serve believers from every denomination and culture by helping them to know the truths of Scripture intellectually and encouraging them to experience these truths practically by the power of the Holy Spirit.

In addition to Priscilla’s participation in many church and para-church conferences across the globe each year, Going Beyond Ministries hosts AWAKEN – an outreach event in their hometown designed to encourage and mobilize women locally. This free gathering brings together thousands of women from different denominations and backgrounds several times a year in an effort to stir revival.

Going Beyond Ministries also equips believers through books and Bible study resources. Priscilla has authored over a dozen video driven studies for women and teens on a myriad of Biblical characters and topics including Jonah, Gideon, the Exodus, discerning God’s voice, The Armor of God.

Her books include Discerning the Voice of God, God is Able, and two New York Times Bestsellers – The Resolution for Women and Fervent: A Woman’s Battle Plan for Serious, Specific and Strategic Prayer, which was named the 2016 Christian Book of the Year. Her latest offering is a 365-day devotional called Awaken: 90 Days with the God Who Speaks. In 2016, Priscilla ventured into the world of children’s publishing with The Prince Warriors, a fiction 4-book series and accompanying 365-day devotional (Unseen) designed to equip tween boys and girls for victory in spiritual warfare.

Priscilla has been married to Jerry for 20 years. Between studying and writing, she spends most of her time cleaning up after (and trying to satisfy the appetites of) their three growing boys – Jackson, Jerry Jr. and Jude.

I enjoyed this Bible study. The study walks through the story of Samuel. each chapter focusing on a different characteristic that aligned Samuel to hear feom God. God isn't looking for the spiritually elite to speak to, but for those that like Samuel have a child-like faith with dependency and trust in him, a single-minded worship, a holiness that sets us apart, to be still and close with God, to act as a servant and submit to him.

My main takeaways were...
- fearing the Lord means respecting him enough to follow, gaining knowledge and wisdom along the way.
-humility is being your best self for God's glory
-there is value in meditating on God's attributes
-we are ambassadors of Christ, act like it
-2 cor 4:17 our momentary light afflictions produce an incomparable eternal glory
-be still and pray, read the word- its another way God can speak to us
-Submit because Christ was willing to, to the point of death
-Submission is boundaries for our good and safety like putting a puppy in a kennel during the day to keep it safe and strengthen the relationship with the owner when they return.

Priscilla is a beautiful articulate faith filled author. Her videos are amazing! She is down to earth and gives practical examples. However, this book was a little too homework like for me. I would’ve preferred her first version. I think that wasn’t a workbook. That is why the three stars so if you go to read this one, think of if you want to be held accountable by doing a lot of writing or would you rather lay in bed and read?

Excellent Bible study on putting yourself in position to hear from God.

This was a good Bible Study. At times I felt it was aimed at younger women. Priscilla really can preach.
