Faithfulness regardless of our circumstances. That’s what it means to be steadfast. But in a world where so much can undermine our faith or pull us off track, steadfastness is often a rare and elusive trait. The content from TGC’s 2021 women’s conference is a rich resource to help women grow in the grace of steadfastness.
Here’s where to find the content to use on your own or in a group.
Steadfast Bible Study
Steadfast: A Devotional Bible Study on the Book of James is an 8-week study by Courtney Doctor that can be used on its own or in conjunction with the TGCW21 conference materials on the same topic. James’s letter meets us in our suffering and sickness, our trials and temptations, our wealth and poverty, our ups and downs. He encourages believers not just to hear the Word, but to do it. He encourages us to persevere in truth in a world of lies, to see that God’s steadfast love is ultimately the source of our steadfast faith.
This eight-week study of James provides:
- Five days of study each week—observing, interpreting, and applying the text
- Devotional commentary with space to journal your thoughts
- Memory verse each week
- Small group discussion questions
- TGCW21 keynote teaching videos

Free eBook by Tim Keller: ‘The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness’
Imagine a life where you don’t feel inadequate, easily offended, desperate to prove yourself, or endlessly preoccupied with how you look to others. Imagine relishing, not resenting, the success of others. Living this way isn’t far-fetched. It’s actually guaranteed to believers, as they learn to receive God’s approval, rather than striving to earn it.
In Tim Keller’s short ebook, The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness: The Path To True Christian Joy, he explains how to overcome the toxic tendencies of our age一not by diluting biblical truth or denying our differences一but by rooting our identity in Christ.
TGC is offering this Keller resource for free, so you can discover the “blessed rest” that only self-forgetfulness brings.
