What’s a Morning Chutzpah & Where Did It Come From? A few years ago, I decided to start each day with a quotable dubbed “Morning Chutzpah”. You’ll see these quotes early in the morning on both Facebook and Twitter.

Today’s Morning Chutzpah:

“Research into the past, as an aim in itself, without the ‘present,’ is not worth a bean.” -Chaim Nachman Bialik

The quotes are primarily from Jewish writers, entertainers, theologians, and artists. Some are full of wisdom, others humor, others thought provoking and still others quirky observations on life. Every so often we throw in a quote from a non-Jewish contributor because the quote is so full of spark and life and hilarity.

Morning chutzpah is meant to make you stop, think, and even smile. [Tweet this]

Where did Morning Chutzpah come from? Continue Reading…

These two groups of lovely ladies are both from First Baptist Church of Roanoke, Virgina. One groups meets on Tuesdays mornings while the other meets on Tuesday evenings. The groups’ leader, Bev Motley, sent in these photos of the groups doing Scouting the Divine.

“I wondered if facilitating scouting the divine—an interactive study– might be a little challenging since most of the gals don’t know each other. Delightfully…not true!! We have had a great time, interesting discussions and feel blessed to be doing the study together . . . Most work full time outside the

home and are exhausted when they arrive. The LORD has used this study however, to challenge some of them to participate—in the discussion…in life outside of their jobs, etc.

A more abundant life…woohoo GOD!”

So glad the Roanoke women were blessed through this study. And way to go Bev for heading up two groups!

Are you or your small group going through one of our Bible studies? If so, we’d LOVE if you sent in a picture. Email the photo to Jessica(at)margaretfeinberg(dot)com and we’ll post your smiling faces on our blog!
