The Best Yes: Lysa TerKeurst’s Newest DVD-Driven Study

Share via:

the best yesSpent some time this week with the newest study by Lysa TerKeurst: The Best Yes: Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands.  TerKeurst is New York Times bestselling author and speaker who helps everyday women live an adventure of faith through following Jesus Christ. As president of Proverbs 31 Ministries, Lysa has led thousands to make their walk with God an invigorating journey.

In this six-session video-based Bible study Lysa TerKeurst shares how to make better use of the two most powerful words, yes and no.  Using Biblical teaching and practical insights this study will help you be more equipped to discern the best yes answers for your life.

The six topics covered in the study include:

  • Set Your Heart to Wisdom examines the beginning of wisdom.
  • Establish a Pattern of Wisdom studies a woman that established a pattern of wisdom that saved her city.
  • Practice Wisdom covers how wisdom must be practiced in daily life.
  • Predetermine Your Best Yes teaches the power of the small “no”.
  • Avoid the Traps of People Pleasing studies how we must not confuse the command to love with the disease to please.
  • Build a Best Yes Legacy teaches how to become more confident in making good decisions.

DVD-driven, The Best Yes is a six session study based on TerKeurst’s book by the same title.  A dynamic speaker, the sessions are just the right length.  At an average length of 13 to 18 minutes, they capture and hold attention as well as set up discussion very well.  Filmed on location in England, each session is set in a visually interesting location.

The study guide is very creatively designed.  With additional instructions for groups that meet for two hours, the study can be completed in 60 minutes.  Each session includes a video viewing guide and a simple set of discussion questions.  The sessions also include elements that engage every participant.  Providing a daily experience, each session also includes a Between Sessions Personal Bible Study.  Keeping today’s busy schedules in mind, these personal studies can be completed with a commitment of about 8 to 10 minutes a day.  The study guide also includes a optional plan to read through the Book of Proverbs during the six session study.

I am always looking for studies that will interest a broad cross section of adults.  When I can find a topic that appeals to new Christians and seasoned veterans, and will even appeal to friends and neighbors, I know I’ve found a winner; what I call a cross-cultural study.  The Best Yes is that kind of study!   If you’re looking for a study that will capture the attention of the women in your church (and their friends), you need to take a look at The Best Yes.  I loved it and I think you will too.
