Woman's Faith Sharing Group
An 11-Session Study from Beth Moore
Based primarily on the Book of Luke, this study is a careful examination of the life of Christ. You will be introduced to an intimate Savior as you get a close-up and personal portrait of the life of Jesus the Messiah. You'll see Jesus come to a funeral and raise the dead, confront conniving religious leaders, teach on a hillside, and even walk on the waves.
Sessions begin Tuesday, January 8 with orientation session in the Adult Formation Room at 6:30 PM. Sessions are facilitated by Cindy Holmes and Wendi Martin. Location of remaining sessions will be announced at the orientation session.
Thursday Evenings beginning September 13, 2018
This Fall they will be reflecting on John’s gospel with Matthew Kelly’s, “The Turning Point”
with Leah Lone
7:00 – 8:30 PM
The Turning Point will introduce you to people and stories in the Gospel of John that you won’t find anywhere else in the Bible: the woman at the well; a man named Nicodemus; the woman caught in adultery; and Lazarus, the friend Jesus raised from the dead. You’ll read stories about Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana, Jesus washing the feet of his disciples, and Peter’s marvelous redemption after he denies Jesus three times.
The people in these stories were transformed by their encounters with Jesus. By entering into their miraculous stories, you and everyone in your group will encounter Jesus in a personal way and develop a deeper relationship with him that will transform your everyday life.When: Tuesday Evenings, December 4, 11 & 18
