Women’s ministry will have a new Bible Study in January! We will study Priscilla Shirer’s new book “Gideon: Your Weakness, God’s Strength.” This study will encourage you to recognize your weakness as the key that the Lord gives you to unlock the full experience of His strength in your life. Instead of ignoring, neglecting, or trying to escape your weaknesses, see them as the gifts that they are, given specifically and strategically by God to unlock the door of God's strength. excerpt from Amazon.comThe study will meet on Wednesdays beginning January 14. Offered at 9:30am & 7pm. Sign up on our website or on Sunday!

We will be offering a women’s Bible Study in Oskaloosa beginning Wednesday, January 28. The group will be going through the book “All In” by Mark Batterson. Many people believe they are following Jesus, but they have mistakenly invited Jesus to follow them. Mark Batterson calls it the inverted gospel. He challanges you to go all in and all out by fully surrendering your life to the lordship of Jesus Christ. That is when the true adventure begins. excerpt from book coverThe group will meet at the Oskaloosa Smokey Row from 6:30-8:00pm. You can sign up at the church or online. Please sign up by January 18 so that we can order books. If you have any questions please contact the church office or Denise Rodwell; [email protected]
