LEARN
Bible Study: Our Women’s Ministry centers around gathering to study God’s Word, while building authentic relationships with other women in the church. We seek to encourage one another in the steadfastness of our faith in Christ as we are “rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith.” (Colossians 2:5-7)
WINTER/SPRING STUDIES began January 10 - CLICK HERE for class list.
SUMMER STUDY June 6 - July 25
Breathe: The Life-Giving Oxygen of the Lord’s Prayer by Karen Hodge
This Summer, you are invited to study, pray, and live out the Lord’s Prayer together. Our grand purpose is to consider, in the context of community, what it might look like if the words of the Lord’s Prayer were written over every aspect of our lives, homes, work, church, and community—to spend time together unpacking how our position in Christ impacts our posture in prayer. We will be amazed at the rich learning-layers as we gaze at the multifaceted truths of this prayer together.
June 6 - July 25: Tuesdays from 6:30-8pm and Thursdays from 10am-noon. Sign up HERE to attend.
Discipleship focuses on Foundations of the Faith (The Creed), Spiritual Disciplines (The Battle), and Spiritual Formation/Development (The Disciplines). Discipleship centers on understanding the fundamental beliefs and disciplines of Christianity that will enable you to confidently affirm your belief and defend your faith. It is our leadership’s desire that all members go through discipleship, then disciple others.
• Factoring in various breaks throughout the year, this commitment generally takes 12-18 months. There are 32 lessons.
• Classes are typically 1-1.5 hours, depending on the size of the group.
• Women can be discipled in a small group or one on one.
In January two small groups will begin going through The Battle:
• Thursdays at 9:15am
• Thursdays at 12:30pm
Began January 12. SIGN UP HERE
