A Women's Community Bible Study
ANNOUNCING OUR STUDY
BEGINNING
March 21st, 2012
SET APART, a study of the beatitudes by Jennifer Kennedy Dean. (We previously studied her “Live a Praying Life”) “By bringing in the distinctively Jewish setting of Jesus inaugural sermon, Jennifer uncovers fresh nuances and overlooked undertones.” “Human beings were created with a compelling drive to be happy. God intentionally created that compulsion, embedding it in our nature, as surely as He created everything else about us. God created you with this need for happiness because He intends it to be His opening into your life.”
JONAH by Priscilla Shirer. (We previously studied her “One in a Million” and “When He Speaks to Me”. “What do we do when God interrupts our lives? Many times, like Jonah, we run! In this study, Priscilla redefines interruption and shows that interruption is actually God’s invitation to do something beyond our wildest dreams. When Jonah was willing for God to interrupt his life, the result was revival of an entire city.”
CONVERSATION PEACE, the Power of Transformed Speech by Mary Kassian. Have you ever left a conversation feeling like shredded wheat? Stuck your foot in your mouth? Been at a loss for words? Had difficulty getting your point across? Do you suspect that your speech patterns are hindering your relationships? This study is loaded with practical advice and seven powerful speech-transforming elements that are based on the Bible. You’ll learn how to listen, use body language, resolve conflict and express yourself clearly. It’s a natural outflow of the book of James!
WHEN GODLY PEOPLE DO UNGODLY THINGS by Beth Moore.
“This study examines why devoted followers of Jesus Christ can fall into the traps of Satan. Believers are still subject to Satan's attacks. He is determined to disrupt the lives of Christians, destroy their ministry, and steal their joy. Sadly, those who have "fallen" may not recognize the devil's schemes until they have already been caught in a snare of defeat. This six-week study is written in three parts. The first part is a warning to believers, while the second part shows women how to prepare for attacks by the Enemy. The third part is directed to those who have been snared by seduction, and points the way back to God.”
Prayer Group: Praises and requests of our COPS women are brought before our Almighty God by this group of prayer warriors. You can join on a given day or participate on a weekly basis. This is a wonderful opportunity for more intimate fellowship and a rewarding experience to witness answers to prayer.
