I have found it difficult to find a church to attend because I am religious and my spouse is not. Every time, without fail, I attend a church that wants to know exactly where my spouse is, why they aren't with me and how we can "work together" to get them saved. It really effects me because it is my sincere belief that God will bring my spouse to Him when the time is correct. I have already seen some changes going on that I don't want to mess up.

That being said, I am going through my own anxiety currently, after having been diagnosed with adult ADHD. The medication that I am taking is making me extremely anxious and I find myself back where I was mentally before finding UR. It is hard for me to place my trust in God when I have all of the fire and brimstone imagery in my mind.

Because of all of this: not going to church and feeling anxious about God, I really want to start doing Bible studies from a UR perspective. So I was hoping that maybe there might be some suggestions here for where to start with those?

TIA  :Pray:

Brother Forest: We all are facing great challenges as we walk into greater union and communion with Him. The mighty call of the Lord of glory (in the Higher hope) tends to make fellowship in churches rather limited, but fear not, He shines in the darkness bringing each one along in His time and pleasure. 

Suffering is but a road leading into Him, not an end in itself. May His grasp of you extend beyond more than you can imagine! We are praying for you.

There is a wonderful law within our God.

"Bear one anothers burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ."

Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?

I like bible studies from chipbrogden.com
They are not all specifically about UR, but from a UR base.

Recommend studying Paul's letters.
Young's literal version, Rotherham,  NET with the Greek variations pointed out in brackets.
Amplified is also useful- I find a point of interest in a verse and then take the time to read the other versions to get a broader view.
Personally reading without the commentaries helped get rid of a lot of opinions,  allowing the Word to do the job.
Paul's letter to the Ephesians about the way we are loved by God is awesome.
Theology covered to Timothy and the Thessalonians.
The purpose of the law in Romans and Galatians.
The love and resurrection to Corinthians.
Spiritual development in 2 Corinthians.
A lot of reading. All worthwhile. Letting the concept of the plan be well and truly established in the heart.
Jesus is our lord and saviour. God makes us grow.

Romans 9, 10 and 11 are a good nutshell.
1 Corinthians 15 is the salvation system.
Ephesians 1, 2, 3 elaborate on true love.
So much positive data about what Christ achieved for us and the glorious future is in the bible.
Hope this helps inspire you to earnestly read the living word with a desire to grow in grace and knowledge.

The oldest known manuscripts agree with each other 99% of the time.  The scriptures, accurately translated, Spirit revealed - reliable.   Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith.  Heb. 12:2
