Theme of the year
In Women’s Ministry as we plan our year, we seek guidance from God in His Word and prayer, regarding how to equip the women of CBC for this mission. This year we felt God calling us to focus on the very root of disciple making. To be a disciple of Jesus means we want to be just like him: to do what He would do, to value what He values, to love what He loves. To be an effective disciple we must first be Sincerely His. As you read the Bible, from cover to cover, you can’t help but see it: this is what God has always wanted from His people (Gen 6:9, 1 Sam 16:7, Isa 1:12-17, Mark 12:28-24, Rom 12:1-2, Rev 22:3-4). He has never been pleased with empty, ritualistic activities of worship or even with half-hearted obedience.
What God wants is our hearts. He wants us to be Sincerely His. This means that success doesn’t look like completed Bible study homework, or full volunteer schedules, but rather hearts full of reverence and adoration for God, that then pour out in sincere worship and joyful obedience. This is the heart of discipleship, and women like this can change our world, one disciple at a time. This year's theme comes out of the church's mission to build disciples who bring Jesus to our world.
