Heart of a Woman
Focus Scripture: Psalm 139:23-24
“Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!” Psalm 139:23-24 (ESV)
As Christians, we too often ignore the symptoms of sin in our lives, and we don’t take the time, have the focus, or have the trust in the Lord that is needed to look inward to the root of our sin and deal with it. The Lord has called us to be holy as He is holy, so we want our hearts to reflect the holiness and righteousness of God Most High. But we have to be willing to do the hard work to see our sin from His perspective. In this intermediate-level discipleship study, women are led to begin asking the Lord to reveal to them what is deep and hidden within their hearts, so that they can confess and believe that they will be cleansed of sin and filled instead with the righteousness of Christ. The goal of this study is lasting heart transformation, not imparting more head knowledge. Eight lessons (nine weeks with Introduction).

Falling in Love Again with Your Lord
Focus Scripture: Psalm 63
“O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” Psalm 63:1 (ESV)
So many Christian women today long to know and love the Lord but don’t know how. In this discipleship study, women are taught from God’s word what it really means to love the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength. As they journey through David’s Psalm 63, women will experience the kind of thirst-quenching relationship the Lord desires to have with them. Many women from many different backgrounds and churches have experienced radical heart and life transformation through this study. Falling In Love Again With Your Lord is, in the words of Dr. Heath Lambert, “robustly biblical, incredibly practical, and urgently needed.” Eight lessons (nine weeks with Introduction).

Jesus, I Want to Love You
Focus Scripture: Matthew 1-7 (with a focus on the Sermon on the Mount)

In this study, participants will learn how to love Jesus and follow Him fully in each and every area of their lives.

Strengthened by Grace:
A Study in 2 Timothy
“I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well. 6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, 7 for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” – 2 Timothy 1:5-7
We will be encouraged, edified, and equipped as we spend time with Paul seeking to gain a greater understanding of his vision for discipleship and his heart for Timothy.

Beyond Belief
Focus Scripture: 1 John
“For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith.” 1 John 5:4 (ESV)
This intermediate-level discipleship study helps to encourage and equip women to actively live out their faith within the context of their marriages, with their children, at home, at work, and at church. We want to help women connect their theology and their love for the Lord with their reality. In 1 John the apostle tells us the purpose of his writing: so that those who believe in Jesus would have confidence in that belief and in their eternal inheritance. He explains the gospel and what true belief looks like and exhorts us to not only receive and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ, but to believe that as Christians we can overcome and conquer sin because of Christ in us!

Falling in Love Again with Your Husband
Focus Scripture: 1 Peter 3:1-6
“But let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands…” 1 Peter 3:4-5 (ESV)
Divorce statistics are heartbreaking. Marriage, as the Lord defines it, is under attack. Couples in our churches are hurting. In Falling In Love Again With Your Husband, wives learn what they were created for, how to fulfill their God-given role, and how to silence the lies that can destroy their marriage and cripple their oneness with the Lord. The world throws out plenty of suggestions for women in their marriages, even those that “seem” right. This much-needed study leads women to the truth in God’s Word to seek His plan and perspective for them. Women are instructed and encouraged to be the godly wife the Lord intended them to be and to find true joy in their marriage, according to His Word and through the power of the Holy Spirit. Many women who have taken this study have testified to their marriages being transformed. Eight lessons (nine weeks with Introduction).

Falling in Love Again with Your Children
Focus Scripture: Psalm 128
“Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways! You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed…your children will be like olive shoots around your table. Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the LORD.” Psalm 128:1-4 (ESV)
Parenting is an immeasurable blessing with an ongoing responsibility. Moms will be strengthened and encouraged by this discipleship study that shows them what their God-given role is and offers very practical application for how to love their children as Christ would love them. This study is beneficial for moms with children of all ages and for women who hope to have children one day. Even grandmothers have been radically impacted by this powerful study because, as we know, even after our children have grown and moved out of the house and have children of their own, our work as parents will continue to impact many generations to come. Moms will find both instruction and encouragement to be the godly mothers the Lord intended them to be, according to His Word and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

In the Garden:
A Journey to a Deeper and More Powerful Place of Prayer
Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. Col. 4:2
NEW! In the Garden is a study devoted to prayer and particularly to teaching us how to labor in prayer and to fully enjoy it, to the glory of God. Over the years, as we have asked women what the weakest area is in their Christian walk, time and again the answer has been prayer. God’s Word commands us to “pray without ceasing” and to devote ourselves to prayer, because prayer gives us access to God and brings us humbly before His throne. It shapes our hearts—and changes our view of God, our view of ourselves and others, and our dependence upon our Lord. So join us as together we learn how to “continue steadfastly in prayer.” Live lecture and training. Six weeks with Introduction (study based on four-week repeating prayer cycle).

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10 (ESV)

This intensive discipleship study in Ephesians will help women discover and embrace that they are uniquely made in Christ and will teach them how to think and live accordingly to glorify Him. They will gain a greater understanding that the Lord has called them and set them apart for Him and His purposes—to live the life He has prepared for them.
