Brave by Angela Thomas is a study that speaks
to us about deep feelings that all women have at one time or another. Angela

woman to ask these questions and dig into these topics alongside other
believers. We've all got insecurities, flaws and struggles that we're afraid to

us. You've got questions. God's got answers. Be brave. This is a video driven study. (Offered in the

it looks like. What it feels like. And how you can strengthen your own
relationship with God. This is a book study. (Offered in the PM only)
Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent by Beth
Moore An in-depth women's Bible study of Psalms 120-134. Traveling pilgrims
sang these psalms both on the way to the great festivals of the LORD and as key
elements of the worship at those festivals. Just as a song or poem can express
feelings of fear, doubt, hope, and joy, these 15 psalms model how we can voice
our own petitions and praises to our God, who is always available and ready to
hear us. Themes of unity, joy, gratitude, redemption, repentance, the power of
blessings, facing ridicule, and more are explored in detail. Modern-day
believers in Jesus Christ can learn much from these treasured Psalms in their
journey toward greater intimacy with God. This is a video driven study.

the devil's schemes until they have already been caught in a snare of defeat. This is a video driven study. (Offered in
both the AM and PM)
