Ever found yourself in over your head, wondering how you would possibly get through with your faith and sanity intact?  Life seems good and then out of nowhere a storm comes that threatens to drown your hopes.  Your storm might be a job loss, loneliness, a crumbling relationship, financial ruin, a serious illness, or the death of a loved one.  Whatever it is, suddenly your foundation is shaky, your footing is not as firm.

 

Through Biblical teaching and personal stories, this workshop will offer a friendly voice in the midst of overpowering circumstances.  It will outline how to anchor your trust in the God who remains faithful in every storm and cares with an everlasting love.  Whether stormy or calm seasons, God is eager to demonstrate His love and power in our lives so that we can know – He’s Still God!

 

Do you struggle in your relationship with money or haven’t quite grown into the money-manager God wants you to be?  This workshop will combine Scriptural teaching, practical tools, and hands-on activities designed to align your habits and attitudes to God’s plan for your financial best.  Topics covered will include budgeting, saving, debt, investing, giving, estate planning, relating about money, and other financial management topics.

 

Are you the kind of woman who tends to put everyone else first and yourself last?  Do you struggle with feeling guilty when you do something nice for yourself?  You aren’t alone! In this workshop, we’ll address five areas where women feel guilty about taking care of themselves. We’ll discover God’s beautiful truth and learn practical ‘next steps’ to take care of ourselves in a way that glorifies God, honors others and blesses our lives.

 

We live in a world of distinct opponents; our very lives are a battle.  Yet too many times we lose more battles than we win because we don’t realize a simple yet radical truth: every struggle and conflict faced in the physical realm has its root in the spiritual realm.  It’s time to raise the shield of faith and fight the demonic forces at work in this world!  This workshop will demystify spiritual warfare so that participants can:

• Understand how the battle is fought by Satan

• Actively use the armor of God

• Find strength in prayer and sufficiency in Christ

• Be victorious over chemical, sexual, emotional, relational, and other strongholds

 

Strengthening our journey as disciples requires steady, faithful communication with God.  Some of us may feel stuck in our prayer lives, or perhaps we just don’t know where to start.  During this workshop, take time to receive practical, Biblical instruction on a life of prayer.  You’ll have an opportunity to apply what you’ve learned in a guided prayer time with like-minded women of God.

 

God has given you a gift, but it is up to you whether or not you open it.  It is your birthday present, given to you by God at the time of your spiritual birth.  God assigns us certain tasks, and then equips us to do them in a manner that brings glory to Him and fulfillment to us.  This workshop will uncover what spiritual gifts are, where they come from, who has them, how they are received, and how they work within the church.  Develop a new vision for how you can use your God-given gifts to bring hope to your home, your church, and a hurting world.

 

There is nothing more crippling than holding on to anger and unforgiveness.  These emotions, more than any others, have the power to consume all aspects of our lives, distort our sense of purpose, and destroy our relationship with God.  However, revelation comes when we realize that forgiveness is a gift we give ourselves rather than to someone else.  Forgiveness isn’t always easy, but under the power of the Holy Spirit, it’s always an available choice. Experience incredible freedom as you are challenged to root out the hidden and hardened places where unforgiveness remains.

 

The faithfulness of God is never more evident to those looking for it than in the midst of tragedy, loss and disappointment.  Learn about His character and receive His comfort as you develop an eye for seeing Him in the middle of the grieving process.  God is able to minister to us through our grief and hurt and then use us to help others heal as well.  Be encouraged as you discover how God reveals His heart to us in the darkest times of life.

 

Marriages are perpetually in a state of transition, continually moving from one season to another―perhaps not annually, as in nature, but just as certainly and consistently.  Sometimes we find ourselves in winter―discouraged, detached, and dissatisfied; other times, we experience springtime with its openness, hope, and anticipation.  On other occasions, we bask in the warmth of summer―comfortable, relaxed, enjoying life. And then comes fall with its uncertainty, negligence, and apprehension.  The cycle repeats itself many times throughout the life of a marriage, just as the seasons repeat themselves in nature.

 

If the only time you get intimate in your marriage is when you turn off the lights at night, you don’t know what you’re missing!  Sex is about more than just physical encounters under the covers.  It’s about a lifestyle of passion and intimacy that can be felt throughout the day.  This workshop will show you how to bring more of that passion into your marriage.

 

Singles sometimes wrestle with temptations in our over sexualized world and struggle to synchronize Scriptural teaching with very loud demands from today’s culture.  This session will boldly venture into the following subjects:

• To flirt or not to flirt • Honor in a sensual world

• Temptation or Treat

• The power to overcome

• Knowing when to say “no” and how to draw the line

• The greatest passion and how to cultivate it

This session is sure to be informative and engaging as it seeks to address and discuss this important and relevant topic from a Biblical perspective.

 

God cares about what you do with your body.  The bodies God gives are instruments for experiencing a fulfilling life on earth, for doing good works, for spiritual development.  Therefore, we have a responsibility to care for His temple.  The right use of your body honors God and glorifies Him.  This workshop will challenge you to understand that he major reason why we ought to have healthy bodies is not just so we will live longer, but so that we will live better.  We can give God our very best thinking, our highest energy, and our longest service.  Adopting a healthy lifestyle is not just a matter of happiness, but it is a matter of Holiness.

Women today have so many messages and influences placed on them seeking to define their roles, standards and value that many are left with identity confusion.  Our enemy is an identity thief, piling on pressures and pain through life’s experiences to make women forget who they are and whose they are.  This workshop will prepare and position women to uncover their own life’s purpose by studying successful women in the Bible.   Attendees will be motivated to deepen their spiritual walk and follow God’s purposes, while taking practical steps to bring their life choices into alignment with His will.
