    Ladies Joshua Bible Study

    Ladies, you’re invited to join us for an in-depth and encouraging Bible study through the book of Joshua: Every Good Promise Fulfilled by Jen Wilkin. This powerful, verse-by-verse study reminds us that God is always faithful to keep His promises—and that His commands are rooted in His steadfast love for His people.
    In this 10-session study, we’ll walk through Israel’s story and discover how it connects to ours today as we learn to trust in the finished work of the true and better Joshua—Jesus Christ—while courageously standing firm against the world, the flesh, and the devil.
    Led by: Cynthia Cook
    Location: East Building
    Choose the time that works best for you:
    • Monday evenings: 6:00–8:00 PM
    February 16 – April 27

  • Mens Ministry

    Men, join us for Volume 5 of our men’s Bible study, “A Man and His Marriage,” as we grow together in God’s design for marriage and leadership. Missed the first volumes? No worries—each study stands on its own, and you don’t need to have attended any previous sessions to participate.

    This six-week study addresses important and often misunderstood aspects of marriage, including its biblical foundation, servant leadership, friendship, common threats, and God’s design for intimacy. The study concludes with practical, biblical guidance to help bring new life and strength to your marriage.

    The study begins February 7 and meets on Saturdays from 7:30–9:00 AM in the East Building, Room 130.

    Cost is free, and all men are welcome to join.
