So what will happen at the Men’s and Women’s groups? I believe it’s vital that these are geared further to establishing a healthy biblical culture in the church family while being wholly focused on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, and spending time together. This may be the only time we will do these curricula, and since it’s the first time the Church is doing this, those who are part of it will be considered the ORIGINALS!We will alternate every other week through at least May on Wednesdays at 7 pm.Format:
30 minutes of teaching and 30 minutes of discussion
Actions to take before the next gathering
People can hang out as long as they like or head out.Session 1. Biblical Womanhood
A biblical woman has her priorities in the proper God-ordained order as she works daily with the Holy Spirit to renew her thought life through Scripture and act pleasing to our Lord. So women were created as life givers—not just physically but spiritually—who help, serve, and nurture others in strength, humility, and tender compassion.
Session 2. Battle Wounds
The enemy targets our vulnerabilities, seeking to exploit every weakness available. We bear wounds from both external sources and our own actions. While pain is inevitable, through Christ, we discover forgiveness and the power to persevere.
Session 3. Holy Temple
The Bible, specifically in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, highlights the sacredness of our bodies, stating they are temples of the Holy Spirit. The apostle Paul urged the Corinthians to avoid sexual immorality, reminding them that they were bought at a price and should honor God with their bodies. Our bodies, created by God the Father, redeemed by God the Son, and indwelt by God the Holy Spirit, are indeed temples of His Spirit. This makes our bodies the very temple of God's Spirit.
Session 4. Spiritual Disciplines
The Bible, specifically in 1 Cor 9: 26-27 , highlights biblical spiritual disciplines refer to practices that believers (as women) engage in to grow in their faith and deepen their relationship with God. Discipline, in this context, means committing to actions and behaviors that align with spiritual principles, regardless of one’s feelings. These practices are guided by biblical standards and serve to cultivate a more profound sense of devotion and connection to God. Engaging in these disciplines can lead to spiritual transformation and greater understanding of one's faith.
