Each semester we strive to offer a variety of new Bible studies with great opportunities to engage in God’s Word with other women. Free childcare is available! We just ask that you register early indicating your need so that we can plan accordingly.

Place your feet firmly on the path of life, revealed in the book of Proverbs as you consider wisdom principles on everyday topics like words, work, friendship, marriage, parenting, neighborliness, money management, leadership influence, and more.

Our limitations are by design. We were never meant to be God. But at the root of every sin is our rebellious desire to possess attributes that belong to God alone. Calling us to embrace our limits as a means of glorifying God's limitless power, Jen Wilkin invites us to celebrate the freedom that comes when we rest in letting God be God. This book discussion group will contemplate ten aspects of God throughout the semester.

Facilitators: Gina Pletcher and Gloria Olson

Join us as we take an in depth look at the very familiar book of Esther, which is a remarkable account of God’s providence and covenant faithfulness. Although His name is never mentioned, His presence is evident throughout this account as we watch Him work behind the scenes to preserve His people from destruction. Then walk with us through the prophetic message of Malachi given during the same time period. Here Malachi will call God’s people to wholeheartedly worship, covenant faithfulness and renewed hope in the coming Messiah.

Meeting Day/Time: Thursdays at 6:30

Are you burdened by a quiet voice that says you're helpless, unlovable, or worthless? In this six-session video Bible study, The Lie You Don't Know You Believe, Jennie Allen defines the three core lies that distort our identities and influence our decisions. Journey with her into Matthew chapter 4, where Jesus faced the enemy's temptations and revealed a decisive truth: God's Word holds the power to silence every lie. As Jesus countered each temptation with unwavering confidence in God, you'll discover how His example unlocks for you the same confidence in the Truth and offers freedom from the core lie that has held you captive.
