Wonderful Wednesdays with Women (WWwW)
Resumes Wednesday, January 15 at 9:30 a.m. in Room 3204 Whether it’s a light-hearted exchange, in-depth Bible study, or a topic relevant to today’s challenges and lifestyles, Wonderful Wednesdays with Women offers a forum for women of all ages to explore what it means to live out their Christian faith. Wonderful Wednesdays, facilitated by Rev. Kristen Warthen, is also a great place to make new friends while deepening long-standing relationships. CONTACT: Rev. Kristen Warthen He Speaks to Me: Preparing to Hear from God by Priscilla Shirer Thursdays at 9:30 a.m. in Room 3204 Are you longing to hear God’s voice, but feel disconnected? God wants to speak directly to each of His beloved children, not to just a few “spiritual elite.” When we approach God humbly, we put ourselves in a position to hear from Him. Join facilitator Gwen Zelewski for this seven-week Bible study as we uncover six characteristics essential for hearing from God. I’m Waiting, God. Finding Blessings in God’s Delays
Monday at 9:30 a.m. in Room 3103 Do you ever feel like God is taking too long to answer your prayers? Have you ever taken matters into your own hands, only to discover that you’ve made the situation worse? Waiting on God challenges our faith when the bills are stacking up, our families are falling apart, or our dreams feel like they won't come true. We know that God hears our prayers, but it’s hard when the clock is ticking, yet He hasn’t shown us the answer. In this four-week Bible study, Barb Roose invites us to explore the stories of the many women in the Bible who had to wait on God. These stories will breathe fresh hope and practical next steps into your life. Together, we will discover that there is goodness and blessing to be found in times of waiting, including a closer relationship with God than we’ve ever dared to dream. Join facilitator Susann Smith as we journey together. Purchase companion workbook at the Circuit Writers bookstore. Women’s Thursday Morning Bible Study
Trustworthy by: Lysa TerKeurst Begins January 9 at 9:30 a.m. in Room 3204 When hard times come and it seems like God is deviating from the plan, we assume our life should follow. We’re more likely to want to tame God, not trust Him. It’s then that we begin to press into our ways and our own timing. No human can carry the weight of being their own god, but so many of us try. In this six-week study of 1 & 2 Kings, participants will join Lysa TerKeurst in Israel as she honestly reveals the places of distrust in her own heart. She will also explore the applicable scriptures that will teach us how to truly trust God. The study will begin Jan. 9, from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., in room 3204. Companion study guides can be purchased in the WC Circuit Writers Bookstore. Broken and Blessed: Women’s Bible Study
Begins Monday, January 13 at 9:30 a.m. in Room 3103 Broken and Blessed is a six-week study that traces the story of the Genesis family, from Adam and Eve, through the generations to Joseph. This class will focus on bringing blessing from brokenness. Participants will see that, despite both good and bad traits that were passed down, God worked for good in every generation—determined to transform those within and outside the family bloodlines. The study ends with the story of Joseph, who decided to stop the cycle of previous generations by offering forgiveness and grace to his brothers. Through these stories of Genesis, New Testament teachings about family, and stories of contemporary families changed and used by God, this study shows people how God can use their own, imperfect families to bring blessing to a hurting and broken world. Join facilitator Susann Smith as this group journeys through the book of Genesis together. Workbooks are available at the Circuit Writers Bookstore. Determined Women's Bible Study
Begins Wednesday, January 15 from 6 to 7 p.m. in Room 2235 Live intentionally and embrace the abundant life! Do you drift through the day not appreciating the gift of every moment? It's easy to do. Learn how to make the most of each day by following in the footsteps of Jesus - the One who lived with a joy-filled determination, laser-focused on his mission to love the world. In this 6-week study of the book of Luke, you'll follow the ministry of Jesus and consider the choices He made on His way to the cross. Elijah: Women’s Bible Study
Begins Thursday, January 16 at 9:30 a.m. in Room 2235 Life is like a rollercoaster. One day it seems that everything in life is good, and the next day, it can feel like everything is falling apart. The prophet Elijah experienced this rollercoaster ride as well. In this seven-week study, grounded in 1 and 2 Kings, we will examine the life of the prophet Elijah, an ordinary man who did extraordinary things for God in the midst of the highs and lows of life. We’ll learn some of the spiritual stamina secrets that helped him hold on to and persevere his faith. This includes practical habits related to making decisions, caring for the soul, accepting circumstances, mentoring, and finishing well—which was Elijah’s ultimate legacy. Best of all, his story will challenge us - but not shame us - because we’ll discover that Elijah was just as human as we are. He doubted and struggled just as we do, but ultimately, he chose to believe God. Join Rev. Joy Roberson as WC Women journey through the story of Elijah. Workbooks are available at the Circuit Writers Bookstore. Monthly Women’s Fellowship
