OTHER DISCIPLESHIP OPPORTUNITIES

ALPHA PROGRAM, ROOM 103
Alpha is a course that is especially geared to people interested in investigating Christianity, newcomers to the church, new Christians and Christians who want to brush up on the basics. Participants will view a 45-minute video talk on a different topic each week and then, in a small group discussion time, share any questions or issues anyone may have. Alpha is for–

*Anyone interested in finding out more about the Christian faith.

*Learning and laughter. It is possible to learn about the Christian faith and to have fun at the same time.

*People meeting together. An opportunity to get to know others and to make new friends.

*Helping one another. The small groups give you a chance to discuss issues raised during the talks.

*Asking anything.

Alpha is a place where no question is seen as too simple or too controversial. Alpha talks are on such topics as: Who is Jesus? Why did Jesus die? Why and how should I read the Bible? Why and how do I pray? What about the Holy Spirit? How can I overcome evil? Why and how should I tell others? Does God heal today? What about the church?

WOMEN' FRIDAY BIBLE STUDY

Friday Morning Women’s Bible study series
10:00-11:30A, Parlor
Beth Moore's "Esther: It's Tough Being a Woman"

Been thinking about doing a Bible study, but never seem to get to it? Interested but not sure what to expect in a Bible study? Concerned about not knowing enough to participate in a group study? There are no prerequisites. There is no pressure to know it all. Just enjoy reading, learning, and sharing with others. This is Good news! Join us in this comfortable setting with other seekers of the GOD's word. Childcare provided.

The book for this exciting 12-week study is $15. Join Beth in an in-depth and very personal examination of the great story of threat and deliverance. She peels back the layers of history and shows how very contemporary and applicable the story of Esther is to our lives. Going up against heavyweights bent on her destruction, Esther trusted God and landed a blow that saved her people. The Old Testament story of Esther is a profile in courage and contains many modern parallels for today's woman. Esther's destiny can be yours as you know more deeply the God who is your corner.
