Baptist Beliefs

More than Enough: God's Strength in our Weakness in 2 Corinthians
Taught by Janna Walters. For women only. ***Class is full***
Have you ever felt a sense of lack? That you’re not strong enough? Not confident or courageous enough? That you simply don’t have what it takes to endure the pains and difficulties of life?   
In this 8-session, verse-by-verse study on 2 Corinthians, Christine Hoover guides you through one of Paul’s most personal letters to discover how God is the ultimate source of the strength and sufficiency you need. You’ll find that God gives you strength to go on—through troubles, disappointments, and temptations—and strength to go forth, equipping you to serve Him and compelling you to share the gospel. Weakness is not a disqualifier or a flaw in our design. In fact, God shows Himself most powerfully in and through our fragility and vulnerability. We’re called, then, not to work harder or to hide our weaknesses, but to call upon God’s infinite resources and rely on Him.
Deep Discipleship
Taught by Zac Ward. For men and women.
This video-based training includes a clear scope of discipleship and integrated curriculum which balances Christian story (Bible literacy), Christian belief (theological literacy), and Christian formation (spiritual disciplines). The class will run both the Fall (Part 1) and Spring (Part 2) semesters. The class will meet for 12 weeks each semester from 6-8 pm on Wednesdays. There will not be childcare for this class.
Women of the Word (class is full)
Taught by Carleigh Woods. For women only. ***class is full***
We all know it’s important to study God’s Word. But sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. What’s more, a lack of time, emotionally driven approaches, and past frustrations can erode our resolve to keep growing in our knowledge of Scripture. How can we, as Christian women, keep our focus and sustain our passion when reading the Bible?
Women of the Word has helped countless women with a clear and concise plan they can use every time they open their Bible. This book will equip you to engage God’s word in a way that trains your mind and transforms your heart.
