Women's Bible Study | Jeannette Brennan: What do the women of Genesis (Sarah, Hagar, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel) have in common? They were flawed women, loved by a flawless God. We’ll study these women using the book, workbook, and videos entitled "Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible" by Liz Curtis Higgs. Learn more about how God works through the strong-willed women of Genesis! Cost for the two required books is $20; the study begins November 13. Invite a friend and join us in Room 328B (Cafe Back) every Tuesday through May, 6:30 p.m. REGISTER HERE
Growing Up Catholic | Doug Christgau: Were you raised Catholic and have questions about what Valley teaches? Do you dread religious conversations at family gatherings? At this class we will respectfully explore these issues and equip you to better understand your own faith as well as the faith of Catholic friends. Begins January 15. REGISTER HERE
Precept Women's Bible Study | LuAnn Turbiak: In "Lord, I Want to Know You," you'll discover the limitless power of God's Name. So much of our confusion and pain results because we don't know God, who He really is, how He works in our lives. But with "Lord, I Want to Know You," that will all change. When you know God more fully by studying His names (Creator, Healer, Protector, Provider, and many others) you'll gain power to stand strong. Begins January 8. Book Cost: $13. REGISTER HERE
