Women of the Way

Spring Bible Study

ALL women of the church are invited to attend the WOW Spring Bible Study focusing on the parables of Jesus. This four week series will conclude our parables theme from last fall using the well-received study guide, Surprised by the Parables.

Even if you didn't attend the fall session, we encourage you to take part. Each weekly lesson stands alone so you won't be "behind" and you can fully participate in the small group discussion and good fellowship of our gatherings. In this study we'll explore four of the compelling and everyday stories Jesus told to those with hearts open to hear and understand his powerful message of God's grace. We'll discuss the deep truths behind these stories and how we might apply their stillrelevant lessons to our lives today. Each study will begin with a brief devotional and allow ample time for small group discussion.
