Facing Our Fears Without Anxiety
- (10 weeks)
Led by Edna Blake & Stephanie Bartz

Living in a world where fear seems to be increasing can leave us in a constant state of anxiety. Everyone faces fear at some point in life. There is the fear of living an insignificant life, the fear of rejection, and the fear of failure. There can also be an unhealthy fear of God, a fear of sickness, a fear of aging and death, and the fear of what could happen to our children.

In this 10-week class, you will learn how to confront fear in a healthy, biblical way so you can live with greater peace rather than anxiety. Each week, biblical examples discussed in class will equip us with practical tools to respond to fear with faith and confidence. This class has no homework.

Notes will be provided.


Angels: Finding Hope in God Who Reigns over Heaven and Earth by Melissa Spoelstra
- (8 weeks)
Led by Becky Dunn and Lisa Bullock

In this 8-session Bible study, Melissa Spoelstra explores Scripture from Genesis to Revelation to learn about angels, who they are, what they do and what they have to do with you. There's no reason to fear or ignore what's happening in the supernatural unseen realm. We can live with confidence that God is in control of it all.

Angels is a call to put your hope in the God of Angel Armies who reigns over heaven and earth. Each week features 5 days of personal study.

1 and 2 Timothy (by LifeChange) 
- (10 weeks)
Led by Julie Cox & Carol Moore

Paul’s letters to Timothy provide encouragement and wisdom for him as a young pastor in Ephesus. These words are also good for you and me today to be strong leaders and to hold fast to the faith in spite of persecution and false teaching. Sensing his time is coming to an end on this earth, Paul’s focus is to inspire us all to seek and to serve God wholeheartedly. 

No work outside of class is required.

Esther — It’s Tough Being a Woman by Beth Moore  
- (7 weeks)
Led by Sherry McCarthy & Pat Good

This study offers a personal Bible study experience five days a week, along with group video sessions, in this in-depth study of Esther, a powerful profile in courage. Join Beth Moore as she leads a personal examination of this story of threat and deliverance, peeling back layers of history to show how deeply relevant and applicable Esther’s story is for our lives today.

If you have ever felt inadequate, threatened, or pushed into overwhelming situations, this study is for you. Just as it was tough being a woman in Esther’s day, it is tough today. This portion of God’s Word contains rich treasures to encourage and strengthen us in our hurried, pressured lives.

Jesus and Women: In the First Century and Now by Kristi McClelland -
(7 weeks)
Led by Geri Harris & Linda Moyer

Imagine walking the dusty roads of Galilee with Jesus, braving jostling crowds just to touch the edge of his cloak and hear him say, “Take heart, daughter, your faith has healed you.” Those words, once meant to comfort a hurting woman thousands of years ago, were also meant for women today.

Join us as we listen to author Kristi McClelland who transports us back to Jesus’ world and follow in the footsteps of the women who came face-to-face with the Living God. In these sessions we will examine the historical and cultural climate of first-century Middle Eastern society to not only understand Jesus more deeply but to fuel our worship of Him today.
