Chapter 2

Hi ladies! How is the reading coming? I hope you are finding the book, easy to read and understand. Chapter 1 was such a wakeup call for me the first time I read it. The idea that we are going through life completely unaware at times that there is a real war going on around us, really woke me up! Through reading this book I have felt a deep sense of responsibility as a leader of you teens girls to equip you with the tools you need to fight on the front lines. One of the best quotes in chapter 1 is: "A country that sent its soldiers into battle armed with spit wads would be a farce." Isn't that so true!? If we saw on the news tomorrow soldiers in Iraq with hockey sticks and water guns as weapons we would be outraged! We want you armed with every possible weapon you can carry, because like it or not there IS a battle and we better be ready! So, my desire through this little book study together is that you will come out of it with AK47's instead of water guns :) Chapter 1 was a wake up call and now Chapter 2 is an introduction to our enemy. We better get to know him...Here are the questions that we will be answering in Chapter 2:

Satan and His Kingdom

Chapter 2

1. before reading chapter 2, when you thought of Satan how did you in vision him?

2. What did Satan look like, physically?

3. What did God call him? (pg. 23)

4. What was the reason for Satan’s fall?

5. It says that 1/3 of the angels joined satan. They were deceived by satan. Do you think that’s a big deal? Why should that be a big deal to us?

Any thoughts/questions/comments???

Can't wait to hear your answers and thoughts! Love you girls and am loving getting suited up for battle along side you!

chapter 1

SATAN AND HIS KINGDOM: chapter 1

  1. Put into your own words how you believe our outlook should change in light of knowing we are in a spiritual war:

  1. How does satan attack our moral?

  1. We need to be equipped: 2 Corinthians 10:4 says we have God’s mighty weapons to fight this battle...look into this and tell me about these weapons (what they are, how we can have them and use them)

  1. We are needing to build a strong offense in this spiritual battle, but because we are human we will not be able to constantly be able to withstand the tension and slugging of the evil one. Do you feel that you have the “defense team” to refresh, re-energize and nurture you?...How do you think you can be a part of someone else defense team?

here we go!

Hi girls!! I am super excited. I have to give credit to my sister for giving me the idea of doing this virtual study! I think it is a great idea, and really could be such a neat thing for us to be able to go through this book together and share thoughts, questions, ideas, etc. I'm stoked, I hope you are too! Thanks for wanting to be apart of this and I really do desire for us to grow together and through this study of Satan. Through this book, I really have felt a sense of power, through knowledge of the word and what it has to say about satan and his role in our lives. I hope it will do the same for you, I believe it will! I want to be a source of help, through this book and am just excited to go through this together!

My idea is this: we will read a chapter a week, and every monday I will post questions for the current chapter. We can then each answer those questions and then also share any thoughts, things that stuck out to you in the chapter and also any questions you may have. Soooo, without further ado, let's get started....here we go!!
