Monday Morning Women’s Bible Study
Monday Morning Women's Bible Study begins September 9, at 9:30 am in the Fireside Room. Our study is Revelation: Eternal King, Everlasting Kingdom by Jen Wilkin. Books can be purchased from Lifeway, Amazon, or Mardel.
Read what Jen says about the study: "Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But if all Scripture is God breathed and profitable, we should assume Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book in the Bible. Two thousand years ago, John's Revelation was circulated and read aloud among seven churches in Asia Minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for us today. In this 10-session Bible Study, Jen Wilkin helps us discover how Revelation speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age."
