TUESDAY
Divine Design
A mentoring class for young wives and mothers taught by older women, based on Titus 2:4. Divine Design is a community of women who are encouraged to love their husbands and children, to be pure and godly, so that the Word of God will not be dishonored. Practical lessons will be taught in homemaking (cooking, organization, time management, and crafting), as well as a Bible study lesson, and time for prayer in small group. Divine Design helps mothers find meaning in the mundane, great purpose in the practical, and supports them as they seek to grow their families toward Christ. Moms are encouraged to develop relationships outside the class with playdates and other activities.
Led by Clair Russell, Lorie Rutledge, Christina Osborne

Joy of Living: Romans
Embedded in the pages of Paul’s letter to the Romans is the power to change individual lives and entire societies. It is a power that we all long to experience as followers of Jesus Christ. Romans deals with how God, through Jesus Christ has enabled human beings to move from a place of condemnation and sin to a place of reconciliation and righteousness. Romans will change your life, just as it has changed thousands of lives through the centuries.

NEW STUDY:
Life’s Healing Choices
This study, based around the book, “Life’s Healing Choices” by John Baker, is a DVD series taught by Rick Warren, which we will discuss in our group, week by week. It’s a practical look at the Beatitudes as they apply to the everyday challenges of life. Regardless of what you struggle with–whether it’s emotional, financial, relational, spiritual, or sexual–the Biblical principles that lead to healing and freedom are always the same, and our choice to change is always available.
Our prayer is that your participation in this study will lead to much growth and freedom as we travel together on the journey of “Life’s Healing Choices.”

WEDNESDAY EVENING
NEW STUDY:
Precept PM: Spare Your People (Obadiah & Joel)
Obadiah and Joel prophesied about the judgment of all the nations in the coming day of the Lord. Edom was singled out by Obadiah because of how they treated Israel. Who would be spared? What would happen to Edom? Or to you? In these last days, as we wait for the Day of the Lord, we should remember that God is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness. He calls people to return to Him with their whole heart. Spare your people, O Lord.

Standing with the Lord: The Sanctity of Life, The Distribution of Wealth
What does God’s Word say about the issues that divide our culture today? Do we know enough about the biblical basis of what we believe to defend our position to others? If you have ever wondered, ‘What does the Bible really say about that?’ then this group is for you! You will experience an in-depth study of the Lord’s universal and timeless teachings from Scripture, and learn to apply them to contemporary concerns today.
