Led by Loree Veith
In a world where so many things feel alarming, this book by Lysa TerKeurst will give you a peace that isn’t dependent on unpredictable people, circumstances, and experiences. Instead, it offers practical and biblical ways to make real progress toward healthier perspectives, relationships, and a future you can authentically look forward to.

Sermon on the Mount

This study features a revised video series by Jen Wilkin.

Book of Revelation
Class is FULL
Tuesdays 9:30 AM
January 14 – March 4
Room 112

Many of us don’t feel equipped to read or study the book of Revelation. It’s full of wild imagery, confusing numbers, vague time references, strange visions and unclear future events. Even so, the ending is a happy one – filled with hope. This in-depth study of the book of Revelation will help lift the veil of confusion.

Galatians

Galatians in 5:1 says, Christ set us free: therefore, keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. Galatians explains Christian liberty: its nature, laws, and enemies. This little letter has at various times throughout church history, called God’s people out of the bondage of legalism back into the liberty of freedom. It has also been called “the cornerstone of the Protestant Reformation.” Join us for this weekly inductive Bible study of Galatians.

Opportunities to Serve
Bethel Women is in need of Tuesday AM volunteers to help with our children’s program, which coincides with our MOMs group. No teaching or prep time is required! The group meets every Tuesday during the school year from 9-11am. We need weekly helpers and substitutes. We want to allow our mothers the time and space to breathe, read God’s word, and fellowship with other moms. In order for that to be possible, we need volunteers to help with the children. If this sounds like an opportunity God may be calling you to, please reach out to AmyHashbarger@bethelfc.com
Leadership Recruitment and Training Bethel Women invites you to come alongside us for the upcoming ministry season. Are you being called to lead a group, pray with women, work with children, serve in a hospitality role, or help with events? Let us know! For more info, contact AmyHashbarger@bethelfc.com.
