ENEMIES OF THE SOUL

Here are the areas we will cover over the coming weeks:
• Bitterness
• Friendship with the world
• Love of power

And, if you’re not a reader don’t let that stop you from joining our group. We’d still love to have you and you can just watch the video with us. We all take turns bringing a dessert to be enjoyed by all after the meeting. That always seems to happen in the kitchen.
Heaven, When Faith Becomes Sight is the new book we’re starting June 26th. The link to purchase the book is below. If you don’t want to get the book, that is fine. You can just come to our meetings and watch the video.

The Iron Club (Proverbs 27:17)
As Iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend. (Proverbs 27:17)
We are a motley bunch of adults. Some of us still have small children in the house, some of us still have adult children living in the house (sigh), some of us are grandparents (awesome)! So, as you can see, just about anybody would be a good fit in our group. We like to meet on Sunday after the first service because it fits into our schedule and those with kids are able to drop them off at First Kids.

Our young couples group meets twice a month (2nd & 4th Mondays) to learn how to apply God’s truth to our lives. Our upcoming study is on parenting. It will be based on content from the book Raising Passionate Jesus Followers by Phil + Diane Comer. Other content we have studied in the past has included marriage, friendship, how to read the Bible, personal finance and evangelism. We often ask our group for input when deciding on the topics we will study in the future. If you are a young couple, we’d love to have you join us!

Hello ladies, prepare to be in your SISTERHOOD ERA!!! Being a young woman in this era (high school & college) is a challenge that should not be faced alone! I will be leading a Sisterhood Group for women in their early-twenties. My goal for this group is for young women to develop a strong relationship with Jesus. Discuss topics like: body image, anxiety, and sisterhood just to name a few 😉. Sisterhood might sound familiar, right? First Church for the past couple years has hosted Sisterhood events in order to bring women of the community together and hear a biblical message that pertains to their life! My wish is that many young women will walk away with lasting friendships built on the foundation of Jesus!
✨I hope you’re as excited about this group as I am! The definition of “sisterhood” is as follows: a relationship between sisters, or a community of women linked by a common interest. Our interest: “Jesus” . I want this group to be a ✨SISTERHOOD✨, not just because that is our title. I want you to get more than just deep discussions out of this group, but find a community where you can lean on Jesus together now and lead others in the future to Jesus!
Best,
Kaitlyn💕
