Women's Bible Studies for Life

providing followers of Jesus with a pathway to walk on as they become more like Jesus and advance His kingdom...

Welcome to Our Sunday Morning Class!  If you are new here, we encourage you to attend.  In this class, we use study guides from Bible Studies for Life.  With a research-backed, biblical model of discipleship, every session is designed to provide a balanced, relatable, and age-appropriate group Bible study experience.

Coming spring 2024

It’s All About Jesus by Michael Kelley 

Examine passages from the Gospel of Luke to see the significance and extreme importance of Jesus.

Being an Authentic Church by Jennifer Denning 

See that God intends for the church to be something far richer and more vibrant than an institution, a religious group, a voting bloc, or a tax-exempt non-profit organization.

The Joy of Giving by Cliff Lea (special focus session)

Look at 2 Corinthians 9 and see that believers are not only called to give but are called to give with great generosity.


*Discipleship is the lifestyle of walking with God. This walk tends to follow a pathway as followers become more like Christ and advance His kingdom.

Every pathway has signposts—markers to show a person’s progress. Lifeway Research has identified eight signposts of discipleship—lifestyle patterns that ought to be growing in ever-increasing measure the longer a person walks the pathway of discipleship.

Bible Studies for Life is designed so that each of the following categories (signposts) are addressed over the course of a year. This ensures a balanced approach to Bible study as group members advance to spiritual maturity.

Engage with Scripture   

Obey God and Deny Self

Serve God and Others

Share Christ

Exercise Faith

Seek God

Build Relationships

Live Unashamed

Do you like to bake? -

If you enjoy baking cookies, pies, cakes or just about anything with flour and sugar as the main ingredient, then this ministry could use you!  We provide cookies and set up for our Christmas Program reception, deliver Valentine cookies to local homebound residents, and host our Scholarship Fund Bake Sale in November.  

CARD SHOP-sending joy near and far

Located in the fellowship hall, the card shop offers a wide selection of cards.  From Anniversaries to Weddings, there is a special card waiting for you.  Visit the card shop during office hours or any other time that the Chapel is open.  A collection box is conveniently located in the card shop to make your payment.  Sales of cards fund other auxiliary projects.  

Cards are only 50¢

SCHOLARSHIP-

Our Scholarship Committee selects and awards a $1500 scholarship to one local student.

Neighbor to Neighbor Meals – 

 The purpose of the program is to serve one nutritious meal once a week on Wednesdays for those living in Hilltop Lakes that are homebound or unable to prepare a meal for themselves because of physical conditions. Volunteers are on one of 5 teams that serve on a 5 week rotation.  If you would like to serve, click below to contact Karen Levett.

Ladies Auxiliary 2023 Scholarship REcipient

Our 2023 recipient of the $1500 Ladies Auxiliary Scholarship is Mary O'Neal.  Mary will graduate from Leon High School in May and then it's off to the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor this fall!  Mary was an outstanding student at Leon High School excelling in academics and athletics and has pre-law plans at Mary Hardin- Baylor.  She is an active member in her church and has been a faithful teacher helper at our Chapel VBS.  Mary is the granddaughter of Mike and Linda Bishop.  Many Blessings to Mary as she continues her educational journey!

Did you know?  Ladies Auxiliary funds its scholarship through its annual Bake Sale that is scheduled each November.  That is a lot of cookies and cakes made and purchased!  We could not do this without our community supporting this program.  We are truly grateful to God and ask for continued support so we can support the youth in our community.

Ladies Bible Study monday

Have you ever said something you wished you could take back?

The Bible has a lot to say about the tongue and the kind of power it has. In his New Testament letter, James tells us that it can corrupt the whole body. The book of Proverbs claims that "death and life are in the power of the tongue."

Biblical, encouraging, and humorous, New York Times bestselling author Karen Ehman will help you:

Learn the essential practice of using your words more constructively.

Understand what God has to say about our tongues and how we should use them.

See how your words have power—whether it's in private, in public, online, or in prayer.

Gain practical insights into breaking habits of gossip, flattery, verbal retaliation, and people-pleasing.

Keep It Shut explores the hows (and how-not-tos) of dealing with our own words (and our silences), so that you can reduce regret and relational tension and deepen your relationship with God, the one true Word.

We meet Mondays at 10:00am and have a great time sharing our love of the LORD!
