Women are uniquely called and gifted to reflect the beauty of the gospel. We want every woman to experience the deep and abiding love of the triune God, have a firm grasp on the gospel of Jesus Christ, grow in understanding and handling Scripture, be inspired to grow throughout her varying seasons of life, and employ her individual gifts to love and serve others—in the church, home, workplace and community.
The Women’s Ministry complements other ministries of Covenant Life and provides opportunities to build friendships, teach and learn from one another, and warmly invite guests to participate.
FALL WOMEN BIBLE STUDIES
1. JAMES | Starts Sept 10 | 9-10am
Cherished for its practical instructions on Christian living, the book of James encourages believers to view adversity in light of God's goodness. This candid epistle, written by Jesus's brother, exemplifies what it means to trust Christ in the midst of life's struggles. Chapter-by-chapter, this powerful, yet down-to-earth study of James will explore important themes such as godliness, prayer, transcending the so-called wisdom of this world, and the relationship between faith and good works.

2. EXODUS | Starts Sept 13 | 10:30a-12p
“Blessed be the Lord, who has delivered you.” — Exodus 18:10. With that introduction, we enter into the story of the Hebrew people in the book of Exodus. In this 10-session verse-by-verse study of Exodus 1–18, we will see that Israel’s story is our story: the same God who delivered Israel also delivers all those He loves from slavery to sin and from service to the pharaohs of this world. He lifts our eyes to the promised land He has prepared where we dwell with I AM and worship Him as the one true God.

3. ABIDE: 1, 2 & 3 JOHN | Starts Sept 28 | 7-9pm
"Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you." — 1 John 2:24. How can we hold on to assurance of our faith? How can we discern the truth from a lie? How can we know God loves us? In these three short letters, the apostle John reminds an early church facing division, deception, and doubt to hold fast to what they know and to live like they believe it. And he remind us, as well. In this 10-session Bible study on the letters of 1, 2, and 3 John, Jen Wilkin helps you see how two thousand year later, his words call to Christians in similar challenges to recall a great salvation and to abide in the truth.
