DISCIPLESHIP ESSENTIALS COHORTS
If you long for vulnerability, accountability, a clearer understanding of theology, growing a deeper walk with Christ and practical help on how to bring Jesus to our world, we strongly encourage you to join a Discipleship Group. Each small group of 3-6 women provide and receive support, encouragement and prayer as we share our struggles and press in toward growing in Christ and making Him known to others.

SEVEN FEASTS
Begins September 9 | Tuesdays | 9:30-11:45 am
Israel is instructed to regularly celebrate seven feasts as they enter the promised land. These feasts are mentioned throughout the Bible but what do they mean, and do they still matter to us today? Join us for this 8-week study and discover how they were understood by Isreal at the time, and how they each point to Jesus in a unique way!
HEBREWS
Begins September 9 | Tuesdays | 9:30-11:45 am
Learn about Jesus' superiority to all in Hebrews 1- 4 that enlivens Old Testament law and prophecy. Hebrews 5- 10 explains the two covenants, the earthly and heavenly tabernacles, and the sacrifices of animals and the Son of Man. Hebrews 11–13 shows that without faith it is impossible to please God and encourages you to fix your eyes on Jesus.
The Precept Bible Study Method is an inductive approach that emphasizes observation, interpretation, and application of Scripture, allowing individuals to discover God's truth for themselves.

ROMANS
Begins September 9 | Tuesdays | 9:30-11:45 am
Paul’s letter to the Romans is the most glorious teaching on the gospel of Jesus Christ. It will transform how we see God, ourselves, and the world. It is impossible to study this letter and not be forever changed. The format includes homework, weekly teaching, small group discussion and prayer. We welcome new and seasoned believers to join us.
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.
