Discipleship starts at home. So as moms of high schoolers we must be women of the Word! We will take a deep dive into 1 Peter with a workbook by Jen Wilkin, while connecting our study each week to relevant teen parenting topics. In smaller groups, we will pray intentionally for our teens and support each other though this season of parenting. Bring your own mug for fellowship. Led by Jen Griffin.

Moms of school-aged children meet bi-monthly for study in the word and fellowship with other moms in the same season of parenting. This semester we will be studying "The Tech-Wise Family" by Andy Crouch. Childcare available. Cost: $20.

Connect with other women, study God's Word and pray in small groups. We will begin with an overview of Ezra and Nehemiah before an in-depth study of Nehemiah that coincides with our sermon series "Rise UP" the begins October 12/13. Childcare available with registration. Email womenshobson@thecompass.net with any questions.

Ladies, we live in a culture that’s all about self, becoming the best “me” I can be instead of becoming like Jesus. Join us Thursday mornings for this 5-part series by Sharon Hodde Miller. Based on her book Free of Me, this study unveils our deepest insecurities and equips us to focus on God and others instead of ourselves.
