Adult Bible Studies

Your Name is Daughter

How does God see women? What can a woman do or not do? What does the Bible say? What does the Church say? What does the world say? In this study we will search Scripture to see what God's daughters are like, how they flounder and how they fly, and how God's love for them never fails. You'll see how Jesus befriended, defended, healed and depended upon women. As a beloved daughter of God, you'll feel empowered to exchange fear for confidence and faith, stand firm in your dignity despite feeling marginalized, and tell a story of healing and hope with your scars.

Before the first session, please purchase the book, read the Introduction and pages 17-43.

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is God's active presence and power at work in the world and in our lives. Through the Spirit, we are transformed, led, empowered, and guided in our faith journey. Jesus promised his followers that the Spirit would come alongside them as comforter and counselor, empowering them to transform the world. In The Holy Spirit, Adam Hamilton explores what Scripture teaches about God's Spirit―from the Hebrew Bible through Jesus' promises in the Gospels, the powerful Pentecost experience in Acts, and the rich teachings found in the New Testament letters. This accessible study helps believers understand and experience the Holy Spirit's presence and power in their daily walk with Christ.

Please purchase the book and read the first chapter before the first class.

Fruits of the Spirit

Don’t miss this new class on the Fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control)!

The class will offer theological reflection that challenges participants to communicate ancient biblical principles in modern terms, to define abstract, spiritual virtues into relatable, everyday benefits.  We will discuss how to identify specific fruits participants need to work on.  The class will encourage discussion on how the fruits work in modern life and can lead to big benefits like stress relief and energy boosts. Participants will also look at the original Greek words for the fruits and their meaning when Paul wrote the book of Galatians. In addition, the class will study specific Biblical stories that present examples of the possession and use of each fruit.

Author Priscilla Shirer can help you discover how you can listen to Him with greater confidence, clarity, and discernment.  Please join us this Spring, and find fellowship and a loving, supportive family of women you can be a part of.  We will save a place for you!
