Are you weary from trauma, stress, or disappointment? Do you long for a Bible study that goes deeper than surface answers and speaks directly to your broken places?
In Haggai: Rebuilding the Ruins, Biblical Counselor and trauma survivor Jane Hanna Stoudt invites you to experience the book of Haggai like never before. This 4-session, verse-by-verse Bible study combines inductive study tools, trauma-informed practices, and soul healing journaling prompts to help you encounter God's healing presence in the middle of your own ruins.
The book of Haggai is short-just two chapters-but it carries a powerful message for women today: God is with you, and your ruins are not the end of your story.
Through this study you will discover:
How to recognize the "bag with holes" seasons of exhaustion, burnout, and emptiness-and invite God to fill them
Why comparison keeps you stuck, and how to find courage again in God's presence
How trauma contaminates-but how God draws a line and declares, "From this day on I will bless you"
The security of being chosen, sealed, and carried like God's signet ring
Practical, science-based insights about how trauma affects your brain and body-and how Scripture speaks directly to those wounds
Creative reflection and journaling prompts to help you slow down, notice God's Word, and respond in a way that brings real transformation
Whether you're overcoming PTSD, anxiety, long-term stress, loss, or shame, this study will meet you with compassion, depth, and hope. With The Margins Method(TM) woven throughout, you'll learn how to interact with Scripture in a Spirit-led, yet simple way that makes room for both deep study and personal healing.
If you've ever thought, "I'm too broken to rebuild"-this study is for you.
