WOMEN’S MINISTRY
BOOK OF THE MONTH - JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2015
“Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life”
by: Donald S. Whitney
Ladies Bible Study: The women’s ministry kicked off the 2nd semester of
Ladies Bible study this past Tuesday! If you would like to join this study please
contact Beth McGarvey at bethmcgarvey13@gmail.com. The group is studying
the book of Nehemiah. The study is 1 1/2 hours every Tuesday from February
10 - March 31. The morning group meets at the church from 9:30-11:00am
(childcare provided). The evening group meets at the Ward’s home from 7:008:30pm.
Donald Whitney draws from a rich heritage of godly believers
from Christian history, guiding readers through a carefully
selected array of disciplines including Scripture reading, worship,
silence and solitude, journaling, and more. He shows how the
Spiritual Disciplines, far from being legalistic, restrictive, or
binding as they’re often perceived, are actually the means to
unparalleled spiritual liberty.
INDONESIA PRAYER MEETING
The next prayer meeting for Indonesia is 9:00am Saturday (February 21) at the
Farm House with Alex & Betsy Kirk. The focus of the prayer meeting will be on
radical Islam. All are welcome, please join the group in praising God for what he
is already doing in Indonesia and asking for the gospel to bear fruit and increase
(Col 1:6).
The book features in-depth discussions on Bible study and
prayer, including methods for praying through and meditating
on Scripture.
By illustrating why the disciplines are important, showing how each one will
help you grow in godliness, and offering practical suggestions for cultivating
them on a long-term basis. Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life provides you
with a refreshing opportunity to embrace the pursuit of holiness through a
lifelong delight in the disciplines. Cost: $12.00
