Sacred Rhythms: Building a Life of Daily Devotion

Thursday, June 11, 7:00 p.m. CDT

Perhaps you’ve heard these words before: “Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly” (Colossians 3:16). And, “Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it” (Joshua 1:8).

God invites us to spend regular, daily time with him in his Word. Your pastor fervently encourages study of Scripture. You recall a memorized and proudly recited passage in school. Your feed shows the social media post of your friend’s picture-perfect devotion life. It sounds amazing!

There is also a good chance these words left that small sliver of guilt as you picture all the unmarked days on your Bible reading calendar. The missed opportunities could be for a million reasons! Maybe it’s analysis paralysis; the simple fear of not knowing where or how to start causes us to put it off. Maybe it’s the mere busyness of life. It’s difficult enough to juggle family, friendships, work, and school responsibilities with enough time to make it to church once a week. Maybe you struggle with consistency. Maybe you aren’t understanding or connecting with the words you read. Maybe you just don’t even know how to study God’s Word.

Whatever the reason, why do we so often resort to living in this guilt when we are so freely offered God’s grace?

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Dear sisters in Christ, you are not alone. Jesus calls us, as his daughters, to come to him for rest.

Join us June 11, 2026, at 7:00–8:00 p.m. for our webinar, “Sacred Rhythms: Building a Life of Daily Devotion,” and rest in God’s grace. You’ll gain not only encouragement, but real and practical solutions for your daily devotional life. Because it’s not always easy. Our panelists will share their struggles, experiences, and tips for studying the Word. We will share resources and offer encouragement. We’ll address challenges like how to incorporate a devotional life on vacation, how to be flexible in hard seasons, and how you can work towards staying consistent even with a busy schedule. Maybe you are looking for new ideas or resources. This webinar is for you, too!

The study of Scripture shouldn’t be one more task for us to check off a list. What if it was what you looked forward to every day? What would it feel like to crave it so intently that you hated to miss it? Imagine if it became your lifeline keeping you grounded in an eternal perspective, where the Holy Spirit would daily fill you and work through the power of his Word to grow and strengthen your faith. This sacred rhythm is time well spent. Let’s build a life of daily devotion!

Why should you attend our live webinars?

Attending the webinar LIVE has its benefits: you can add your thoughts, read what others are posting, ask questions, get real-time feedback. Women’s Ministry also offers some great giveaways for live participants. However, watching the recording has its benefits too. It allows viewing at your convenience or when you can get a group together.

Either way, register today! Registering subscribes you to the follow-up email listing the resources mentioned in the webinar and providing links, as appropriate. Registrants will also be first to receive the link to the recording.

This webinar is for anyone who wants to use their God-given influence with purpose intentionally and positively—especially women who may feel limited by formal roles yet want to make a tremendous impact through service, relationships, and everyday faithfulness.

Join us and rediscover the meaningful, Christ-centered influence God has already placed in your hands.

“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:13-16).

Attending our webinars offers advantages like being able to ask the panelists your questions and contribute your ideas in the chat (and win some giveaways). Can’t be there live? We encourage you to still register so you receive the follow-up e-mail with the recorded link and resources. Watch with a friend or church group and make it an event! It’s the perfect way to start a conversation among sisters in Christ and apply it to your own situation.

Meet our panelists

Rachel Halldorson
HOST | WELS Women’s Ministry Executive Team

Rachel is wife to Wayne (her favorite pastor) and mom to two amazing kids, William and Hosanna. She lives in East Texas where she serves as church secretary and works at the local public school. She also serves on the WELS Women’s Ministry Executive Board as the Congregational Ministries team leader (aka the CONGO team). This team connects women of our synod to resources, offers ministry encouragement to groups and individuals, and provides a platform for women to hear biblical conversation on relevant topics. They do this primarily through Connection Calls and women’s ministry webinars. Meeting fellow sisters in Christ and connecting them with each other by sharing their ideas and gifts is one of Rachel’s favorite things to do!

Jen Mueller
PANELIST | Morning Star Lutheran Church, Jackson, Wis.

When it comes to personal Bible study, Jen falls under the “trial and error” category. Sometimes she’s in the Word each day, and other times, she can’t remember the last time she actually opened her Bible. She constantly prays that the Lord strengthens her desire to spend time with her Savior, and that he helps her prioritize her personal time in the Word.

Lou Ann Mokwa
PANELIST | Immanuel Lutheran Church, Waupaca, Wis.

Lou Ann Mokwa, wife, mother and grandmother, is a member at Immanuel Lutheran Church, Waupaca, Wis. There she teaches ladies’ Bible study, sings in the choir, and is a pianist/organist. Through God’s grace and to his glory, Lou Ann has authored Bible studies for women: Esther: Providential Persian Queen; Mary: Providential Earthly Mother of God; and soon, Deborah: Providential Prophetess and Judge (available at NPH). Sisters Exploring the Word (sistersexploringtheword.com) is a website she founded in 2025 to encourage all women to deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ by exploring his Word. Daily time in Scripture can transform lives. In modern times, God has blessed us with technology through which we can develop a deeper and more personal devotional life. But the devil prowls, so discernment is pivotal when engaging in this ever-expanding information world.

Laura Falck
PANELIST | Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Germantown, Wis.

Laura has been a member of Bethlehem for 28 years. During those years, she has led a Women’s Bible study, been a Lutheran Girl Pioneer leader, served on various committees, and currently co-chairs Bethlehem’s Women’s Ministry. She remains involved in women’s and churchwide Bible studies as well as an in-person prayer group. In recent years, she has developed a passion for serving women in their faith journey. Women supporting women brings tremendous blessings to all involved and totally fits God’s perfect will for our lives!

Moira Schulz
PANELIST | St. Marcus Lutheran Church, Milwaukee, Wis.

Moira, a pastor’s daughter, grew up surrounded by ministry and studying God’s Word. As a 21-year-old graduate of Wisconsin Lutheran College and full-time marketing specialist in Waukesha, Wis., she faces the familiar challenge of figuring out how to navigate spiritual habits on her own. Moira yearns to grow closer to God and learn about him at a deeper level, beyond just her upbringing. She’s excited to enter the many new seasons of life that await by discovering what works and what doesn’t—and encourage her sisters and Christ in the same.
