This class is for women of all ages and all stages of life with a hunger for the Word of God. January 12–April 5, we will experience the IF:Gathering 2019 through study. What does it look like to live out our faith in our relationships, our jobs, in conflict and suffering, and with our money? This generation is hungry for big faith, a faith marked by wisdom, that is lived out in the practical, mundane things we do and decisions we make every day. Join us as we listen to the IF:Gathering speakers and dive into the book of Proverbs for a look at a different way to live. April 19–May 31, we will study Gifted For Love by Matt Chandler. All spiritual gifts come from the Holy Spirit and are given to serve the body of Christ in love. These gifts are at work today, but most of us have never heard of the gifts or have seen them twisted for a glory other than God’s. In this video study each of us will discover how God has individually gifted, called, and empowered us with gifts for building up His Church.

Childcare: Yes
Requirements: Bible, Trustworthy study guide by Lysa Terkeurst ($15)
When hard times come and God seems to deviate from the plan we assume our life should follow, we are more likely to want to tame God, not trust Him. It is then that we begin to press into our own ways and our own timing. No human can carry the weight of being their own god, but so many of us try. In this 7-session video study of 1 &2 Kings, join Lysa Terkeurst in Israel as she honestly reveals the places of distrust in her own heart while exploring the deeply applicable Scriptures that will teach us how to truly trust God. In this study we will learn to: • Identify and challenge doubts in the one true God. • Explore how the Old Testament applies to our lives today. • Learn to trust in the goodness and faithfulness of God.

As Christians, we often feel the guilt and responsibility of meeting the needs of unhealthy people in our lives. Whether a sibling, parent, spouse, coworker, or friend, toxic people always seek to frustrate our life’s calling. While you are seeking first God’s kingdom, they are seeking first to distract your focus and delay your work. In this 7 week video study we will learn to:
- Set healthy boundaries to protect your life’s calling
- Find refuge in God when you feel under attack
- Discern when to walk away from a toxic situation
- Keep a tender heart even in unhealthy relationships
- Love and serve difficult people by resisting their control
- Grow your inner strength and invest in reliable people.
