Spiritual Growth Institute (SGI) Wednesday Classes

Systematic Theology VI, Coed

Teachers: Scott Gables & William Wallace

August 5-December 9, Room 100

This class seeks to explore the doctrine of the future. Students will learn a systematic understanding of the Second Coming of Christ and the Final Judgment. Using Scripture as our sole authority, we will seek to answer questions like: How will Jesus return? Will Christians go through the Great Tribulation? What will the new heaven and new earth be like? The book for this study is $20.

Prayer Study for Women

Teacher: Nancy Andrews, Anna Joines

August 5-December 9, Room 102

Please join us for a class this fall that will deepen your intimacy with God and revolutionize your prayer life as we study —The Hour That Changes the World by Dick Eastman. This class offers practical, biblical tools that offer simple yet profound ways to structure your prayer life and how to turn every passage of Scripture into a fresh conversation with your Heavenly Father. Each week we will combine teaching, group discussion, personal reflection, and guided prayer times in a warm, encouraging community of women. Whether you are new to prayer or have been praying for years, this class will equip you with timeless habits that bring joy, power, and consistency to your walk with God. The books for this study are $10.

Experiencing God

Teacher: Estri Britton

August 5-October 21, Conference Rm

God is inviting you into an intimate love relationship through which He reveals to you His will, His ways, and His work. When you recognize where God is working, you can join Him in what He is doing. Carefully listening to His voice will anchor you in His plan and set you free to live it with boldness and freedom. Then you will experience God doing through you what only He can do. Join us for this 12-week study on knowing and doing the will of God. Limited to 10 participants. The book for this study is $15.

Evangelism

Teacher: Bart McCurdy

August 5-September 23, Room TBA

This 8-week evangelism class will teach you to overcome your fears by using a proven, powerfully effective way to make the gospel make sense. You won’t be at a loss for words. You don’t need to be an expert in apologetics. Instead, you will learn the forgotten biblical principle of bypassing the intellect (the place of argument) and speaking directly to the conscience (the place of the knowledge of right and wrong)—the way Jesus did.

SGI: Thursday Evening

6:00-8:00 PM

Joshua Study for Women

Teacher: Mitzi Lundy

August 6-October 15 Room 102

In this 10-session, verse-by-verse study of the book of Joshua, we will see God’s continuing faithfulness to fulfill His covenant promises, both to Israel then and to us today. Israel’s story is our story. We battle not against flesh and blood as they did, but we courageously war against the temptations of the world, the flesh, and the Devil, trusting in the finished work of the true and better Joshua, Jesus Christ. The book for this study is $20.

Women's Ministry Discipleship Dinner Groups

You're invited to join a Discipleship Dinner Group! Sign ups are open now and will remain open until August 14th. Sign up here.

This monthly time of gathering with a small group of ladies for the purpose of growing together in gospel community will be a fun and beneficial time for you. Every month you will gather with your group over a meal and enjoy a time of fellowship and then a brief devotion and time of discussion.

This year our theme is Ordinary Obedience: forsaking sin and learning to walk in joyful, everyday obedience by putting on Christ. We will focus every month on a different area of life where we must forsake sin and embrace the call to walk in the new life we have been given in Christ.

This monthly commitment begins in September and ends in May.

For questions or more information, contact womensministry@tgbc.org.
