“What the Women Saw”
Women of the Word Study for May
The Women of the Word study group on Wednesday evenings are continuing a study they began the week after Easter. “What the Women Saw” is a study that uses a series of video presentations and an accompanying study guide to help participants better appreciate the women whose names we know well, but whose lives may remain a mystery to us.
What the Women Saw
“Do women matter to the kingdom of God?
Jesus was surrounded by both men and women during his ministry on Earth. He saw, valued, and cared for women, and he still does today. Each one of us has a significant role.
Through this six-session study, you will discover who Jesus is through the unique perspective of women in the Bible. As you study the lives of Mary, Martha, Mary Magdalene, and others, you will learn from their faith and failures and be reminded that Jesus cared for and valued the women he was surrounded by. He equipped them, listened to them, walked with them, healed them, and empowered them. And he does the same for you now.”
Take a look at the video trailer for the series:
