JUST FOR MOMS :: Saturdays @ 8:30am

 
Just for Moms is a time of fellowship, bible study, discussion and prayer, in community with other moms.  It is a wonderful opportunity to nurture friendships, encourage one another and build each other up, as we journey together through motherhood!  Coffee and snacks are provided.  You don’t have to “mom alone.”  We would love to see you there!
 

Please sign up and join us for our Winter Session:  “Says Who? Part 2:  Finding Freedom From What Culture Is Teaching Moms.” 

When: Jan 18, Feb 1, 15, Mar 7, 14, 28

Where:  Youth Room, lower level

This is a 6-session, video-based study intended to encourage us moms to live the life of peace God has for us by exchanging the world’s lies for His truth.  We will discover what God has to say about being in control, being a wife and mother, and our spiritual life. 

WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY :: Mondays @ 7pm

 
For women of all ages and stages in life, please join us on Mondays @ 7pm in the Fellowship Room.  Beginning Monday, January 13th we will begin the New Year with a new Bible Study called The Patriarchs. Sign Up Here and we’ll see you the second week of January.
 

The Patriarchs: Encountering the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – Bible Study Book by Beth Moore provides a personal study experience five days a week for this in-depth women’s Bible study of Genesis 12-50. Discover God’s pursuit of a relationship with man, and marvel as His plan to bless all people unfolds. Full of twists and turns, ruin and redemption, revelation and mystery this Bible study keeps participants captivated by the God who stars in it! Explore concepts such as blessing, covenant, and promise, and the bearing each has on a New Testament believer’s life today. Group members will also study the Hebrew names of God introduced on the early pages of Scripture. Throughout 10 weeks of exciting, engaging intrigue, participants will plunge into the heart of Genesis, to God’s remarkable pursuit of relationship and to the unfolding of His earthly plan: that through one nation—and ultimately, one man—all people on earth will be blessed. Many of the most profound and enduring concepts in the whole counsel of God’s Word are initiated in this marvelous book of beginnings.

WOMEN IN THE W.O.R.D. :: Thursdays @ 9am

There are 4 different Bible Studies to choose from. Each Bible Study has a limit of 12 women per study.
 
Women of all ages and stages in life are welcome! Our regular program meets September through June.
 
When:     Thursdays at 9am
Where:    Fellowship Room,  lower level
 
 
A few details about the 4 studies:
1-2 Thessalonians remind God’s people of the salvation he has secured for those he has called. When King Jesus returns, he will deliver his people and bring justice to the earth.
 
Part of the Knowing the Bible series, 1-2 Thessalonians is a 12-week study by Matt Smethurst that place the books in context of God’s larger story. The study provides an overview of the text before digging into it with a series of questions for reflection or discussion.
Words we all love. Feelings we want. Even crave. We may love God, but being that he’s invisible, words like comfortable seem to feel better faster.

We are all chasing something. Our hearts were made to run hard and fast after things that move us. But as a generation we are all beginning to stir and wake up, identifying that these words don’t satisfy for long, especially when compared to God. If God is real, and we are going to live with Him forever, shouldn’t He be everything?

Caught in this familiar haze of worldly happiness and empty pursuits, Jennie Allen and her husband Zac prayed a courageous prayer of abandonment that took them on an adventure God had written for them.

“God, we will do anything. Anything,“

Anything is a prayer of surrender that will spark something. A prayer that will move us to stop chasing things that just make us feel happy and start living a life that matters. A life that is…Surrendered. Reckless. Courageous.

If we truly know a God worth giving anything for, everything changes.
 
In Isaiah: A 12-Week Study Pastor Drew Hunter helps readers understand and apply the challenging words of the prophet Isaiah in this 12-week study. Isaiah’s prophecy, which alternates between promises of judgment and restoration, reminds God’s people of the magnitude of humanity’s sin, the judgment that we all deserve, and how God displays his glory by saving sinners.
 
Throughout the study, Hunter continually shows how Isaiah’s promise of cosmic renewal ultimately anticipates the work of Jesus Christ, the servant-king whose death would result in new life for all who trust in him.
 
New Testament Characters
A throwaway woman who is redeemed by Christ. A blind beggar who is given sight. A doubting disciple who discovers faith. A jailer who is freed from internal prisons.
 
These are some of the ordinary people – some never even mentioned by name – who were touched by Jesus. Through their stories you will meet the Saviour as well.

Parents, grandparents and/or caregivers can bring their preschool children (age 0-4 years) to meet up and take part in Christian focused activities through play, creative arts, songs, biblical story time and discussion about God.

WOMEN’S SMALL GROUPS

Another way you can get connected is through small groups specifically for women at different ages and stages of life. Groups centered around growing in our faith as women through the study of God’s Word, and prayer. And pursuing authentic community as we care and love each other and enjoy a time of fellowship and connection, usually around food.
