The Best Yes Bible Study Guide: Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands Kindle Edition

Do you spend a lot of time figuring out how to manage your time? New York Times best-selling author Lysa TerKeurst will guide you and your group through how to make wise decisions in the midst of endless demands and overwhelmed schedules.

Most of us spend a lot of our lives figuring out when to say yes and how to say no—dwelling on how to reduce stress, do your best for your family, and find a little slice of time for yourself along the way. Lysa was in the same place until she learned the power of the best yes: the choice that shapes all other choices and the key to living wisely.

In this six-session video Bible study (DVD sold separately), Lysa TerKeurst uses her signature mix of transparency, Bible-based insight, and "been there" humor to suggest usable strategies for making wise decisions day by day.

The Best Yes will help you and your group:

  • Cure the disease to please with a biblical understanding of the command to love.
  • Escape the guilt of disappointing others by learning the secret of the small "no."
  • Overcome the agony of hard choices by embracing a wisdom based decision-making process. 
  • Rise above the rush of endless demands and discover your best yes today.

Designed for use with The Best Yes Video Study (97801400205943), sold separately.

What do I need if I'm participating in a study group? This is the basic study: the only thing you need if you're a participant in a group. 1 DVD needed per study group. (This is for those who just need the video and already have their guide.) All-in-one: contains 1 study guide and access to DVD video sessions. Audio version of the video sessions. Perfect for on-the-go leader prep or for those who need to catch up. Core book: companion to the study, with more stories and context from the author, but not required for the study.

It's a study guide... you're supposed to write in it. I am able to take notes on my device yet instead of having places to write, it says [Your Notes] in the middle of the writing space!

This was a great bible study for our women's group. It was just the right pace after having done a very intense study just prior. This one was easy to digest... as Lisa TerKeurst is so down to earth and understandable. The study itself was very doable following the one session per week plan. We used the accompanying DVD (sold separately) which was also really good. Definitely gives good sound advise on knowing how to decide what your Best Yes is in different seasons of your life... One of the most poignant lessons was realizing that if I said Yes to something that really wasn't best for me at the time... I could be robbing someone else of the opportunity to find their Best Yes... Good study and very applicable to all seasons of life (our group of women ranges from women with elementary aged children to women who are now widowed and have grandkids).

I have an Abuse Recovery Program for abused women and Lysa’s Bible studies are always a good addition. I lead Lysa’s Bible studies in between the recovery programs so I may stay connected with the women during interims. The women love these short reprieves and I really enjoy what I learn from them while teaching. I highly recommend all of Lysa Terkeurst’s Bible Studies, and, no, this is not a paid review!

I love Lysa's writing style--down to earth and honest. My women's group is studying The Best Yes and we were told to buy just the study guide. The leader should have bought a guide but having the book would have been more beneficial for group members. Even with the book, the study guide isn't really necessary.

5.0 out of 5 stars CHALLENGING THE WAY I SAY YES!
Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2016
Verified Purchase
We are currently using THE BEST YES STUDY GUIDE in the weekly ladies Bible Study group I attend. Lisa TerKeurst has challenged all of us, through scripture and her gift as a Bible Study teacher to examine our "Yes". Do we really think about the "Yes" and what it will involve. Are we already overbooked and overwhelmed? Lisa helps unpack saying "Yes" and how to make our Yes - THE BEST YES for us, for the task and for those around us. Lisa even offers help on saying no and how to determine when a no is the best answer. This Bible Study is challenging us to look at our decisions, challenges us to evaluate. Using this scripture based study helps us turn to God's word, talk to God about what THE BEST YES would be and listen for God's guidance. I recommend this study guide for everyone! It is definitely changing the way I determine my answers BEFORE committing! Thank you Lisa TerKeurst!!! (FYI - I did purchase the companion book - which is great, but it is not necessary if you just want the Bible Study)

I am currently leading this Bible Study and I bought the book for my Kindle. I wanted the workbook in this hardcopy, though, so I could actually work in it! So far, 3 weeks in, I am pretty pleased with this study and the video series that goes along with it. I, for one, am definitely infected by the "disease to please" that Lysa talks about in the series. If you are doing this as a group study or on your own, I highly recommend this study guide to help you process the information and get the most out of it.

We used the video, study guide and book for our Bible study group. We enjoyed the video but for our group we found the book to encourage far more discussion. The study guide is broken into two parts - the first part of each section follows the video almost verbatim and the second part is a personal study that can be broken down in 5, 15 or 30 minute studies to accommodate any schedule. I would not really call this a Bible study as it is more of a topical study with lots of self-reflection but it is still worth the effort to complete.

I've been a bible student most of my life and really appreciate the depth of insight Lysa TerKeurst holds. However having said that, I found the study shallow for our group. We definitely were able to apply it to our lives and but the principles presented were very familiar. We tended to discuss why we struggled with applying them. We're going to go back to a Kay Arthur study next.

On another note, the shipping from amazon was very disappointing (long) and I ended up purchasing the books through christianbook.com instead
