THE BOOK OF DANIEL Women of all ages. God is sovereign over history, even when it is difficult for us to see His hand at work.

STEADFAST LOVE Women of all ages. There are times when worship overflows effortlessly from a heart full of gratitude and praise. And there are times when God feels far away, and we feel we have nothing to offer. Throughout it all, God shows us His steadfast love. In this seven session Bible study, we will study Psalm 107 to show us how to face both the storms and deserts with courage and trust in Jesus.

THE WISDOM OF GOD Women of all ages. We look into the poetic books of the Old Testament not only to glean wise principles for living, but also for the wise person these books point to -- Jesus. Gain a fresh perspective of how God guides us, how we can make sense of our suffering and our dissatisfaction in life and how to deal with our emotions, need for security and longing to be loved. Most importantly gain a broader understanding of Jesus, the fulfillment of Scripture.

LESSONS IN LUKE Women and mothers who enjoy a time of teaching along with the opportunity for small group fellowship. In his Gospel, Luke the Gentile Physician provides an orderly, investigated account of the historical life of Jesus. Luke carefully and selectively records Jesus miracles, messages, and ministry to the least, the last, and the lost. Luke looks beyond Jesus as Messiah for the Jews and sees Jesus as Savior of the world. Luke s message is still good news for us today. Jesus is indeed the Savior of the World who has Come to seek and to save the lost. Luke 19:10 Teacher: Donna Evans Leaders: Julie Sasse & Amy Pattillo January 18 Thursday Mornings at 9:30 a.m. G-101 Light Homework $8 Book Childcare available
