Women's Spring Study

Spring Women's Bible Study!!
 For seven weeks, we will be studying the parables of Jesus, specifically the "kingdom parables," which includes any parable beginning with "The kingdom of heaven is like...."  We often think of the kingdom of heaven as something glorious that will happen in the future, but the kingdom of heaven, as described in these parables, is SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT! You'll discover how we are ALL a part of the kingdom of heaven and how the kingdom of heaven exists with us here today, and every day.  Additional details and small group opportunities can be found below:

WHAT TO EXPECT:

If you have been a part of the last two Women's Bible Studies, you will recognize the format.  You will be provided a workbook and there is homework provided for five days out of the week.  Some days you will be able to sit with the homework a little longer than others, and that's ok.  Please do not be intimidated by the thought of doing homework.  The goal and hope is to have you spend a few minutes in Scripture everyday, and the questions are meant to get you thinking critically about Scripture.  You will seek to understand the meaning of, interpret, and THEN apply the scripture.  After you have completed your homework, we come together for a time of small group discussion/fellowship and a brief time of teaching and questions.
