Women's Bible Study - Keep It Shut
What to say and how to say it. What not to say. When it's best to remain silent. What to do when you've said something you wish you could take back. . . In this study, you'll take a personal tour through the hows (and how-not-tos) of dealing with the tongue.
The Bible has a lot to say about the tongue and what kind of power it has. James tells us that it can corrupt the whole body and that it can't be tamed. The book of Proverbs claims that "death and life are in the power of the tongue."
This 6-session study is designed to offer hope for all of us who struggle with the way we've used our words and practical wisdom for getting our tongues under control.
Dover Women Cookout
Join us for a fire pit gathering at the White House (the building across the parking lot from the main church building) with a menu straight from the garden! This event is rain or shine. In case of rain we’ll move indoors.
Women's Bible Study - When God Doesn't Fix It
Is it possible for our faith in God to deepen despite loss, heartache, struggle, and pain?
Worship leader and recording artist Laura Story’s life took an unexpected turn when her husband, Martin, was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Their lives would never be the same. The fairy-tale life Laura had dreamed of was no longer possible. And yet in struggling with God about how to live with broken dreams, Laura has found joy and a deeper intimacy with Jesus.
In this five-session study, Laura shares her deeply personal testimony and renewed hope to help us learn that God may not fix everything. In fact, although your situation might not ever change or get better, with Jesus you can. Not because of your faith, but because of the faithfulness of God.
