ENCAMP
Encamp is a 8-week Bible study through Psalm 27 where author Jennifer Edewaard guides and teaches readers how to explore and establish themselves in God’s Word. Her prayer is that you would grow in the knowledge of the Lord and experience the hope we have in God when we live in Christ, seek his truth, and stand in his glory.
Encamp is a word-for-word expository study through Psalm 27. The goal of this study is to understand and determine the biblical meaning of each verse and let Scripture interpret Scripture. Readers will be guided verse by verse and word by word through the text and invited to soak in it, listening to what the Holy Spirit is saying. Each week features field notes to help you consider what you’ve learned about God through David’s writings and how it relates to living in Christ, seeking his truth, and standing in his glory. Field notes will break down the reading for each week, dissecting the words and phrases in the verses. Each week also includes space to reflect and pray.
Each part of your trek matters, and this book will point you to Jesus each step of the way. Our journeys may look different, and some parts will be harder than others, but remember this: we are seeking the heart of God and growth in the knowledge and fullness of God, and he will carry us to the end as we encamp with him.

From The Introduction
"His provision supersedes the plight. To take root in him, you have to yield where he plants you—it is here that growth thrives and life is sustained. God is within you, you shall not be moved. Here, now, in this trek—as the lay of the land unfolds in each step you take, he firmly sets you—while the earth gives way, and the mountains tremble—he fortifies you from within."
- Jennifer Edewaard, author

Jennifer's Story
Through a terrain of waiting, infertility, loss, weariness, unknowns, being a mom to a child with special needs, and the ebbs and flows of homeschooling and discipleship, I’ve experienced the strength of Jesus in the hardest moments of this trek as I cling to him. He has shown me how to deeply depend on him and to see his goodness in the everyday moments. Perhaps the journey you’re facing looks different than you imagined it would. But we aren’t left to make the trek alone. After walking through years of infertility and waiting for answers, we had our son at 23 weeks. Our lives changed in an instant and our trek pivoted time and time again as we walked through, and continue to walk through, challenging moments—from life-altering diagnoses to learning the ins and outs of the disabilities he lives with. In the midst of this, and so many other battles along the way, God was there, shaping us and revealing himself to us. Having lost two babies, experiencing the various hills, valleys, and mountains of parenting a child with special needs, and having our marriage propelled into relying solely on God, we can say with certainty, surely God is in this place.
