WOMEN'S MINISTRY

WESTERN SPRINGS BAPTIST CHURCH | THE VILLAGE CHURCH

Women’s Ministry exists to discover Christ and His transforming power in all things. We desire to help women to embrace the great assurance and hope of their identity in Jesus Christ and to enjoy full satisfaction in Him. We will find our value in Christ together through:

  • Prayer
  • Study and application of the Word
  • Fellowship
  • Serving one another

 

We encourage older women to be examples for the younger women because we are committed to raising up women who exemplify biblical womanhood to the glory of God.

 

Please check out our ongoing Bible Studies and Prayer Groups.

TUESDAYS


Ephesians by NT Wright

Tuesdays, 9:30-11:00.  

Ephesians (N. T. Wright for Everyone Bible Study Guides), by NT Wright

 

Have you noticed how sometimes you have a story in the back of your mind that keeps coming up, even when you're talking about something else? In Ephesians, throughout its worship, prayers and instructions for living, Paul can't contain his joy and amazement at the larger story of God's plan to save us in Jesus the Messiah. These eleven studies from Tom Wright will help us see the significance of our role in God's grand narrative, and encourage us to live more fully as people who are lavishly loved by God. This guide by Tom Wright is designed to help you understand Scripture in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you or a group more deeply into God's Word. Discover how you can participate more fully in God's kingdom. 

 


Tuesday Evening Ladies Bible Study - Starting March 12

Tuesday Evening Ladies Bible Study - SPRING Study
MARCH 12 - MAY 7
7:00 pm - 8:30 pm, Fireside Room

SERMON ON THE MOUNT with JEN WILKIN 

In His sweeping depiction of kingdom citizenship, Jesus utters some of the most familiar passages in all of Scripture. Most of us have only encountered the Sermon on the Mount in fragments, considering its subdivisions as complete teachings in their own right—a study on blessedness; a reflection on the Lord’s Prayer; a discussion of religious devotion, money, ambition, and relationships.

What if we navigated these three chapters in Matthew as they were originally heard? What if we read them as one cohesive, well-ordered message, intended to challenge us to think differently about what it means to be a follower of Jesus?

 

This 9-session study will give you the opportunity to do just that. Come and learn from Jesus, just as His disciples did.

Tuesday evenings will include, group discussion of the Bible study homework and small group prayer time. 

The books will be available at the first session for $22. 

If you have any questions, please call/text Linda Peters 708-738-8486.

With: Reimagining the Way You Relate to God, by Skye Jethani

With explores the narrative of the Bible to show that we were created to be with God, and that restoring this connection is his mission. Instead of life over, under, from, or even for God, what leads us into freedom and restoration is life with God.

 

Why are American Christians, who have more access to biblical teaching than any other people in history, failing to experience the freedom of the Christian life? Why are pastors, those closest to the work and ministry, burning out at an alarming rate? Why do many church members, who give large amounts of their time and wealth to Christ and his kingdom, secretly question the legitimacy of their efforts? And why are spiritual seekers dismissing the validity of the Christian message?

 

Is it possible we’ve misunderstood the call of the Christian life?

 

A life lived in rich communion with God cultivates faith, hope, and love in a way that transforms both us and the broken world we inhabit.

In With, you’ll find:  illustrations of concepts in the book to aid understanding; recommendations for how to practice communion with God, including three helpful practices.
