A new women's Bible study is beginning in Wichita Falls!


We are beginning a city-wide women's Bible study in September here in Wichita Falls!  Our study will cover God's amazing faithfulness to us and how we can be secure in what He says in Scripture.  We will study through both the Old and New Testament to gain insight into the concept of covenant (His everlasting promise to us) and explore Biblical truth regarding God's promises.  We are excited for this opportunity and hope you will join us.  Please email questions to: wfbiblestudy@gmail.com.

Who:    All women!  This study is for any age, any denomination, any woman who desires to grow in her relationship with Christ.  Whether you are a new Christian, a seasoned believer, or seeking to learn about God, this study is for you!

What: An 11-week, Inductive Bible Study on Knowing God’s Covenant

What is an Inductive Bible Study?  It is a method of studying Scripture using the Bible as your primary source to learn about God and what He teaches.  You will discover Truth for yourself using three skills: observation, interpretation, and application.  These skills will aid in your study of God’s Word in the future.  (For more information on Inductive Bible Study see http://www.precept.org/about_inductive_bible_study.)

What are God’s covenants and why are they important in my life?  Our study of how God enters into binding agreements with His people and always keeps His promises will transform the way you read Scripture!  Study His covenants from Genesis through Revelation and learn to trust Him as your Covenant Partner.  Trusting Him frees us from the bondage of worry and anxiety.  

When:  Orientation for the Bible study will be on Tuesday, September 4th for both the morning and evening class times.  Due to the Labor Day Holiday, our normal Monday night class will meet for orientation on Tuesday, September 4th at 8:00 p.m. at the Forum. 

Our evening class will meet on Monday nights, beginning on September 10th – November 19th, 2012 from 8:00 – 9:30 p.m.  Our morning class (with childcare available) will meet on Tuesday mornings, beginning on September 11th – November 20th, 2012 from 9:30-11:00 a.m.

Where: Our Monday evening study will meet at Wichita Falls Women’s Forum, 2120 Speedway, Wichita Falls.  Our Tuesday morning study will meet in Room 350 of First Baptist Church, 1200 9th Street, Wichita Falls.  Childcare is available for the Tuesday morning study.  
               
Why:    To learn how to study God’s Word and become established in and transformed by His Truth.

How:   Depending on your schedule, you have two options of study which are parallel and will
allow for women to come and discuss God’s Word together during our weekly discussion
group meetings.

Option 1:  In & Out – designed to meet the needs of those who might not be able to commit to lengthy homework requirements.  The In & Out lessons require about 1 hour of home study time per week.  Cost of workbook: $20

Option 2:  Precept Upon Precept – a more in-depth study which incorporates approximately 3-4 hours of individual study time per week that enable you to dig deeper into God’s Word.  Cost of workbook: $25

             You will be able to pick up and purchase your workbook at orientation!  We have         
             ordered extras for everyone.
