Join us as we come together in heartfelt prayer, humbling ourselves before God and seeking His face. Let’s ask Him to burden our hearts for the lost and ignite within us a burning desire to know Him more deeply.
This special time of prayer will also focus on lifting up the upcoming year for our church and each of its ministries. The women will gather in the Main Foyer to seek God’s guidance and blessings.
Let’s unite in prayer and trust God to move in powerful ways!

EPHESIANS: A Study of Faith and Practice
by Jackie Hill Perry, Jasmine Holmes, and Melissa Kruger
Tuesday, January 28 | 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM | Room 108
Who am I? The question of identity is always in the back of our minds, and it’s currently at the forefront of social conversations. But the first question we need to ask is: Who is God? Then we can begin to consider, and who am I in light of who He is? In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul describes God as a merciful and forgiving Father who unites us in Christ and empowers us to live by the Spirit. We’re adopted children and fellow citizens with the saints because of God’s loving pursuit on our behalf.
In this study, Bible teachers, authors, and friends Jackie Hill Perry, Jasmine Holmes, and Melissa Kruger walk through the book of Ephesians, examining the invaluable truths Paul’s letter holds for us today. Along the way, they’ll help us understand the riches of our inheritance as daughters of our heavenly Father, as well as what it means to walk in a manner worthy of our calling.

ISAIAH: Striving Less and Trusting God More
by Melissa Spoelstra
Thursday, January 30 | 9:45 AM - 11:30 AM | Room 108
Isaiah served as God’s mouthpiece to the nation of Judah but also to the surrounding nations. His message echoes into our lives today as we read his call to rely on the Lord. Using the genres of poetry, narrative, and prophecy, Isaiah communicated clearly that followers of God could trust in Him.
As you study the chapters Isaiah wrote - from his challenging words to the nation of Israel to his prophecies of the Messiah to come - learn to rest in God's promises and grow in trust. Unpacking Isaiah’s words will reveal that you can trust God more than your own human effort or the counterfeits the world suggests. You won’t be striving harder but instead trusting more deeply the Faithful One who is so worthy of our utter dependence. In Him you'll find the comfort and peace you need to sustain you.

Gospel of John:
Savoring the Peace of Jesus in a Chaotic World
by Melissa Spoelstra
Life. It seems to move at a break-neck pace. Days are filled with noise, screens, and appointments. Sometimes worry and fear are constant companions. The chaos can leave you looking for a place to be still, but that resting spot always seems to be an elusive destination. Jesus offers a different kind of life. He offers peace. He is peace.
In this 7-session study on the Gospel of John, Melissa Spoelstra will encourage you to slow down and linger with the living Word. You’ll appreciate the pace of the Savior who never hurried but completed allt hat the Father called Him to accomplish. As you turn the pages of John’s Gospel, you’ll be challenged to take on the posture of a learner -understanding that the peace Jesus offers is not an ease of circumstances, but a stillness of the soul. As a result, you’ll grow in intimacy with Him and learn to live, serve, and rest in His peace.
