2025 Women’s Summer Study

This summer we are using Nancy Guthrie’s book God Does His Best Work with Empty. We will consider the impact of Christ's work in our lives as we experience periods of emptiness. Looking at Old and New Testament passages, we will explore how God enters these places and reorders our thinking as He provides His presence, kindness, provision, grace, life, meaning, faith, and joy. As Nancy Guthrie proposes, "when God looks into the empty places of our lives, He sees the greatest opportunity. God does His best work in the emptiness...as He fills it with Himself."

Tuesdays from 9:30-11:30am in Room 103 (downstairs)

June 10 - July 22 (We will not meet July 1)

Bring lunch for you and your children and stay for Lunch & Fellowship after the discussion 11:30-1pm in the Fellowship hall/playground area.
