Getting Started

We are so glad you are joining us for this online study of The Jesus-Hearted Woman!


This page will tell you what you need to know to get started and should answer any other questions you may have. If you have a question that isn't answered on this page, feel free to comment at the bottom of the page and we will answer it for you. If you don't want to ask your question in the comments, you may email araogwow@gmail.com and we will answer you by email.

Who is this study for?

Although the book title, The Jesus-Hearted Woman: 10 Leadership Qualities for Enduring and Endearing Influence, indicates that this book is for women in leadership, the qualities discussed in this book are good qualities for any woman to develop. Even if you are not in a position of leadership, we all have our own sphere of influence. So, whether you are in a position of leadership or not, you can get something from this study. That was the long answer...

The short answer is... EVERY WOMAN IS WELCOME!!!

What do I need to get stared?
  1. Please click here to register for the study. There is no charge but we would like to know who is participating and have a way to contact you with information regarding the study. Thanks!
  2. Make sure you have a copy of the book. Here is the information for where you can find it.
  3. Tell your friends about it!! Invite your friends to join the study with you!!
When do we “meet”?

This study is designed with the idea that ladies from across the state with varying schedules will all be able to participate. Here is how that will work. Week 1 will begin with reading the Introduction and Chapter 1 of the book. The study post and discussion questions for Week 1 will be posted at the beginning of the week. You do not need to have the chapter read before that post appears, but when you finish reading for the week, come join the discussion online. Each week a new post will be posted at the beginning of the week and we will continue to comment/discuss throughout the week.

How do we participate in the discussion?

Each post has a place at the end of it where you can post comments. Discussion questions will be included in the post and you may choose to answer any or all questions posed by adding a comment to the post in the comment section.

How do I know when this weeks post is available?

The post for each week should be available online no later than Monday morning each week. One way to make sure you don’t miss it is to subscribe to this blog. You can do that by entering your email address into the “Follow by Email” section on the right hand side of the page. This subscription process is powered by software called Feedburner which will require you verify the subscription by clicking a link in an email that they will send to you. If you subscribe by email, you will receive an email when new items are added to the site, but you will not receive the email notification immediately after the post is available. It may be the end of the day or the next morning before the email arrives.

You may also follow us on Google+ if you are on there to get instant updates as items are posted. We will also post updates on the Women of Worth Facebook Page.

    Where Can I Get the Book?

    There are many options available for ordering The Jesus-Hearted Woman. The cheapest place I found for ordering a hard copy of the book was Amazon.com. Here are the links to where you can purchase to book from.


    Paperback from My Healthy Church - $17.99

    Kindle - $7.69

    Nook - $8.49

    iBook - $9.99 (Search for it in iTunes)





    The Devotional Book isn't necessary for this study, but you may like it. It summarizes the chapter into a short devotional and for only $1.99 is worth the price. There isn't anything in the devotional that isn't in the book as far as I can tell, but if your interested, here are the links to find the devotional book.


    Paperback from Amazon.com - $1.99

    Kindle - $1.89

    The Jesus-Hearted Woman Online Book/Bible Study

    Have you ever wanted to join a book club, but just couldn’t find one near you that included books worth reading. Maybe you want to be a part of a women’s Bible study, but your church doesn’t have one. Well, join us this year as we combine the best of both with the book, The Jesus-Hearted Woman.

    Join us online, right here, at www.araogwow.blogspot.com as we travel through Jodi Detrick’s book to cultivate 10 Leadership Qualities for Enduring and Endearing Influence. Whether you have been in leadership for fifty years or are just now beginning to have opportunities to lead, we want you to join us for this study.

    This will be a fantastic opportunity for the Women of Arkansas to grow together and learn from each other no matter where you live. All you need is a copy of the book and internet access to participate.
    This will be a 10 week study, beginning March 2, 2014. Details will be posted here at www.araogwow.blogspot.com as we get closer to that time.

    Follow by email (on the right hand side of this page) to get email notifications as items are posted.

    Let's go on this God adventure together to grow as Jesus-Hearted Women!!
