Circles all week · book club, live

Gathered in circles. Grounded in the Word.

Two or three women, a set time, every week — on a video call from wherever you are. And when the book club meets, we read the book together, live.

Two or three women

Small enough that someone asks the follow-up question.

A set time

Tuesdays at six, or lunch on a Monday. The time holds even when the week doesn’t.

Every week

We show up weekly and we don’t leave. That’s the whole method.

Book club · live

Every week has the same shape.

So you always know what you’re walking into — even if you missed last week.

8weeks, one section each

Reading

One section of the book

Read aloud, or on your own first

Three questions

The host brings them

Anyone can answer — no one has to

One challenge

One thing to try before next week

Carried into your Circle

Scripture anchor

One verse to hold onto

Arrives with the Morning Word

Everything a host needs, built in.

No separate video account. The leader hosts from the app, and co-hosts run the room with her.

Host and co-hostsMute, let people in, remove someone, end for everyone.
Stage and audienceA few readers on stage; bring anyone up when her hand is raised.
Waiting roomGuests wait until a host lets them in.
RecordingsMissed the reading? Hosts can share the replay with members.
Live captionsFollow along with the reading, word for word.
Invite linkOne link for the whole reading. Text it to anyone.

Bring someone. All she needs is the link.

Text her the invite to a Circle call or the next reading. She types her name and joins from her phone — no account needed to listen in.

“For women whose day doesn’t end until everyone else’s does. Come tired.”
