Everything You Need Bible Study Guide: Essential Steps to a Life of Confidence in the Promises of God - David Jeremiah
Leader: Linda Watson
When: Monday 9:30 am (9 weeks - Starting January 20th)
Where: Meeting Room 2, 1 Saturn Way Hurricane WV 25526
Category: Women's Group
You may feel like you're lacking in confidence, purpose, and peace. You may worry that your faith is weak or that you're easily overwhelmed by the pressures of this world.
Many Christians feel unprepared to walk the journey of faith, and yet God equips us with his own glory and goodness so that we're able to face the ruggedness of the world with dignity and strength.
In this six-session video Bible study, Dr. David Jeremiah draws on passages from the book of 2 Peter to show you how to find divine help to walk life's trail with resilience and strength. You'll learn:
- Specific ways to take your divine gifts and develop character qualities from them.
- Practical wisdom to help you work with confidence as a member of God's kingdom.
- Knowledge to strengthen you to soar above your circumstances and make the most of every opportunity.
Gospeler: Turning Darkness into Light One Conversation at a Time - Willie Robertson
Leader: Rhonda Null and Kim Moore
When: Monday 6:30 pm (7 weeks - Starting January 20th)
Where: Upstairs conference room, 1 Saturn Way Hurricane WV 25526
Category: Women's Group
Could you share the gospel with another person? Would you know where to start? Do you even know what the gospel is? It's the Good News of Jesus, and a gospeler is simply someone who shares it with others.
Willie Robertson writes about his story of faith, which came about in large part because a stranger went out of his way—as well as his comfort zone—to have a spiritual conversation with Willie's father, Phil. And from that story, he tells readers how they, too, can talk about Jesus with their family, friends, neighbors, and even people they meet along the way. Gospeler will help readers:
- Celebrate the gospel genealogy that led to their faith and be inspired to grow their spiritual family tree.
- Understand that sharing the gospel is not preaching but having a conversation.
- Keep sharing the gospel with someone, knowing that Jesus never gives up on us.
- Focus on what's truly important (Jesus) instead of what's not (religion).
Being a gospeler is not complicated. And the more you share Jesus, the easier it gets. Maybe you believe other people are better at sharing their faith and it is not your gift. Maybe you think you don't know the Bible well enough. Or you might say you haven't figured it all out yourself, so you aren’t equipped to help anyone else. Whatever may be holding you back will be covered in this book, giving you the inspiration, guidance, and encouragement you need.

Gain a True Knowledge of Christ So No One Deludes You!

Unbroken Faith: Spiritual Recovery for the Special Needs Parent
Leader: Elizabeth Feigel
When: Friday morning at 10:00 am
(10 weeks - starting January 31th)
Where: Meeting Room 1, 1 Saturn Way Hurricane WV 25526
Category: Women's Group
Description: "How could God let this happen? I can't do this! How can my child have a meaningful life? Where is God in all this?"When a parent hears that their child has a disability, hearts and hopes are broken. But faith doesn't have to be. Unbroken Faith identifies and treats the crippling fear, guilt, and inadequacy that parents of children with special needs can encounter. Diane Dokko Kim comes alongside families as a fellow special-needs parent to help reconcile the premise of a good God with the devastating realities of raising a child with disability. Diane courageously articulates deep-seated, unspoken doubts and fears you may have but are afraid to voice:
- Why my child? Why us? This is not the way it's supposed to be!
- Why won't God fix this? Doesn't He care?
- I'm the wrong parent for this child. I'm not qualified.
- No one understands what I'm going through.
- What will happen to my child? I can never die.

Leader: Amber Midkiff
When: Thursday evening 6:30 pm (6 weeks - starting January 23rd)
Where: Meeting Room 2, 1 Saturn Way Hurricane WV 25526
Category: Women's Group
In our fast-paced culture plagued with burnout, stress, and chronic fatigue, we often find that we’re functioning out of emptiness. What would it be like to experience a fullness in our life that was truly lasting and regenerative?
In Soul Care, licensed counselor Debra Fileta shows you how Jesus’ own life rhythms can guide you to true health and rest, teaching you how to live full rather than empty. Rooted in Scripture and expertly informed by clinical psychology, Soul Care identifies six life-giving practices from the life of Jesus that address your whole person—mind, body, and spirit. As you are guided toward your own practice of biblical self-care, you will learn how:
- The Bible responds to common myths about soul care
- A lack of soul care impacts your relationships, ministries, and careers
- To recognize the signs and signals of burnout and respond proactively with practical solutions
Empty people cannot fill up others. As you learn to be filled as Jesus was by intentional rhythms and practices, you will experience renewed energy, motivation, and strength to serve others as you never have before!
