A Study of 1 and 2 Corinthians: Do Everything in Love
CWBS is a small group women’s Bible study open to all ladies in the community who desire an in-depth study of God’s word. If you are looking for a welcoming, affirming place to dig into the Word with other women who desire a deeper relationship with God, we invite you to join us. CWBS offers a wonderful combination of accountability, support, and fellowship.
The stakes were high when Paul penned his letters to the Corinthian church. Corinth was located at the heart of the Roman Empire and the success or failure of the church there would have far reaching consequences throughout the known world. But the Corinthian culture certainly didn’t make it easy for new Christians to develop a deep, mature faith. The Corinthian church was at risk of splintering apart over differences in social classes, intellectual arrogance and attitudes about spiritual freedom. Paul’s love compelled him to address these issues decisively. What insights can we gain about the issues and debates that threaten to divide the church today and stunt it’s transforming impact on our world? What is the secret to true spiritual maturity and unity among Christ’s followers?
Meeting Times & Registration
Small groups meet weekly on Thursday mornings from 9:30 – 11:00. Childcare is provided during all of our CWBS studies and luncheons. Please pre-register for childcare when you sign up for CWBS.
