Women's Bible Studies

Wednesday Morning Classes | 9:00-11:00am

Join us on Wednesday mornings from 9:00-11:00 to dive into Scripture, become part of an engaged Christian community of women, and make new friends. We gather in 210/212 from 9:00-9:30 to connect, sing, and pray. At 9:30, we move to our individual classrooms. We hope to see you there!

Kathie Stocker and her Bible study group are diving into Experience the JOY - Then Share It in Life Center classrooms 210/212 during the first three weeks of May. This short LWML-created study is based on 1 Thessalonians 5:16 that reminds us, "Rejoice at all times!" The themes in the study are Salvation, Forgiveness, Anxiety-Free, and Application. 

Debbie Baacke and Lori Knutson are team teaching in Life Center classroom 216. Join us during the first three weeks of May as we dive into God's Unbreakable Promises. We will be using resources from Right Now Media to affirm that God and His promises never fail.  Jennie Allen, Jada Edwards, and Lauren Chandler will share short videos and help us to see the story of God throughout the Bible and what it means for us now; that God always keeps His word, even if we don't; and God never fails, even when His people do. 

Women's Bible Study Brunch - May 20th

We have had a full nine months of study, discussion, learning, and prayer since we kicked off Women's Wednesday Bible Studies in September, so let's celebrate!

Even if you were not able to join us for Bible study this year, we would love for you to join us! This will be a great opportunity to hear more about upcoming women's events, including Letting Go for Growth, our summer Bible and book studies, and our August service event.

Bring your favorite dish to share and gather with us in the Life Center from 11:30am-12:30pm for an hour of friendship, fellowship, and good food. We hope to see you there!

Women's Discipleship Summer 2026

Letting Go for Growth 

Ladies, please join us on June 10th from 9:00am to 12:00pm in the Chat Room for a special women's gathering that will help us look at growing past our doubts, fears, past experiences, and the limits we set for ourselves. It will be a time of renewal as we move around, talk, engage with table activities, and create a visual that reminds us we have a God who made us to bloom and grow in His care.

This is a great event for a group of friends, neighbors, or members of your small group, so grab your girlfriends and sign up here by June 8th. 

Created to Commune: A Study on the Spiritual Disciplines Bible Study

Ladies, grab your favorite sparkly water cup, comfy clothes, and sunglasses, and join us for a summer of studying the Bible and God’s truths alongside good friends as we navigate the heat of another Houston summer. We will meet from 9:30-11:00 in the Chat Room on Wednesday mornings from June 17 to August 12 for our Created to Commune Bible Study. There is no cost for the study, but please register here so we can make sure to prepare enough materials.

40 Verses to Ignite Your Faith: A Women's Book Study

Ladies, you are invited to join us for a summer of diving into some unexpected passages of Scripture. We are going to use Laurie Short's book 40 Verses to Ignite Your Faith to look at "in between" verses that provide wisdom, guidance, and encouragement. Grab a girlfriend and register here by June 10th. We will see you on Wednesdays in the Chat Room at 11:30 starting on June 17th.   

Be Encouraged!

Text Message of Encouragement

Father, teach me and mold me. Help me to see that obedience is a way of showing my love for you and trust in you and your gracious plan. Walk with me and grant me your wisdom that I might listen to your voice, follow in your Way, and seek you all the days of my life. 

Want to discover more? Trust is a commodity that we trade too loosely in our modern world, but we can truly trust our God and Father. Take a look at Scripture to see how He is worthy of our full trust again and again. Psalm 20:7, Psalm 56:3, Psalm 37:3, Psalm 56:4, Joshua 24:24, Luke 11:28, Hebrews 5:9, Psalm 119:60, Acts 5:32, Psalm 9:10, Proverbs 3:5-6.
