Women's Bible Studies

Morning Classes | Wednesdays 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 has been teaching in Life Center classrooms 210 and 212 using LifeLight's Creation, New Creation.  The study will take a break from November 5th through December 17th to allow Kathie and the Creation, New Creation ladies to register for and attend Christina Hergenrader's Everlasting Bible study.

If you are interested in joining the Creation, New Creation study, the group will resume meeting on January 7th. This amazing study begins with Creation in the Book of Genesis, takes us through the Old and New Testaments, and ends with the wonder of a New Creation in the Book of Revelation. The study materials for this class are available for $10.00. Please contact Lori Knutson if you wish to get registered! 

Debbie Baacke's group in Life Center classroom 216 spent this fall diving into Kelly Minter's Ruth: Loss, Love, and Legacy (reprinted in 2024). This was a powerful study that gave each member of the group new insight into Naomi, Ruth, Boaz, Obed, and the one whom this story points us to - Jesus. The group has (sadly) finished and will be participating in Christina Hergenrader's Everlasting Bible study beginning November 5th. Stay tuned for more information on our first study for 2026!

Regular Women's Bible Study classes will resume on January 7th. If you have any questions, please contact Lori Knutson.


Bible Study & Brunch | Everlasting - Journey Through Psalms

Ladies, we have just two more mornings in Everlasting: Peaks, Valleys, and Grace in the Psalms. Join us December 10th and 17th from 9:30 - 11:00 in LC210 and 212 as we journey through the Psalms with Christina Hergenrader and her new book Everlasting: Peaks, Valleys, and Grace in the Psalms.

We are going to wrap up our year of Bible study and time together on December 17th. Bring your favorite dish and join us in the Life Center at 11:30 for a potluck brunch. We'll enjoy good food, great conversation, and celebrate our Christian sisterhood. Christina is going to join us and have a table full of her amazing selection of books, so you can even get a little Christmas shopping done for yourself, a good friend, or a wonderful granddaughter! 

We look forward to seeing you on December 10th and 17th for Bible study and December 17th at 11:30 for our potluck brunch!

Be Encouraged!

Text Message of Encouragement

Jesus, in this season of waiting patiently, help me to cherish every single moment and enjoy every tiny miracle that I miss all too often. 

Want to discover more? Grab a cup of tea, sit back, and look into Scripture to see what it has to say about patience and waiting. Take a look at James 5:7-8, Isaiah 40:31; James 5:7, and Psalm 27:14.
