Women's Summer Bible Study

Hello ladies of CATB,

,

Are you looking to connect with other women?

Are you ready to allow God to rock your heart and mind?

We are so excited to announce our first 

women's summer bible study!!!

*Sessions will run for five weeks
*Tuesday nights from 630p-8p @ church office
*Sessions begin with a 15min video and then we will breakout into smaller groups for discussion
*After each session, in your study book, there is a section for reflection and application
*Each participant needs both a book AND study guide (see below links for easy purchase)

 Our chosen study: Altar Ego

written by Craig Groeschel (Life Church's lead pastor)

Here is a short excerpt from it:

"Instead of living with an ego that is outward driven and based on other people's opinion - even our own, we're going to discover how to live with an ALTAR EGO. We'll learn to live in the truth of who and whose we are.

As you discover your holy lineage and true identity in Christ, your ALTAR EGO will then drive your motives, thoughts, and actions; empowering you to live according to His higher values. When you truly know whose you are, you will begin to live with a deep confidence in His calling, rather than living a timid, halfhearted, shallow cultural Christianity, you'll boldly live in the confidence of a God who believes in you and who has created you perfectly to do what He has planned in advance for you to do."

We know summer schedules can be tough but don't let that stop you.

Even if you can only make it to a few of the five sessions,

CATB ~ New Year ~ Family Connections

Hello CATB family,
Yes, a new year has quickly arrived.  A NEW year, a NEW day.
Do you dislike making New Year's Resolutions because you just know it won't last?

How about considering a NEW DAY Resolution?

Check this out:

"Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed,  

for His compassions never fail.

They are NEW every morning; 

great is His faithfulness". 

 Lamentations 3:22-23

Do you see what God's Word says?   Read it again, slowly.  

Because God loves us so much AND because His compassion & faithfulness NEVER ends, we are NOT consumed by this world as He is ready to make us NEW every morning.  Thankfully, He has mercy on us everyday! Yes, we can be restored, reNEWed, refreshed each & every day.  

How will you respond? 

Seek him wholeheartedly?  Ask for forgiveness of sin AND choose to change the behavior?  Make a decision to learn & apply God's Word daily?  Resolve to care for YOU (physically, mentally, spiritually)?  Opt to connect & "do life" with other believers?

"This is the day that the Lord as made.  Rejoice & be glad in it"  Psalm 118:24
