Would you like to be a part of a small group of women who love, support, encourage, and pray for one another, and who gather each week to read the Scriptures together? If so, the Lexington Women’s Bible Study is the place for you! No previous experience with studying the Bible or belonging to a small group required—if you’re interested, we’d love to have you join us! Registration link is below the study description.
This year's study will be on:
Walking in the Light: Developing the Spiritual Art of Discernment
Throughout the Scriptures, God uses the metaphor of light to describe what it means to live in partnership with the Lord, to seek and obey God’s will, to be guided by the Lord in all that we do—in other words, to live lives of discernment. Just a few examples:
Grounded in the many passages in Scripture that speak about light and darkness, our study this year will help us to develop the spiritual art of discernment.
Discernment is not just a spiritual gift given to some, or an optional path believers may choose to pursue; rather, discernment is an essential component of every believer’s walk with God, and a necessary companion to the spiritual discipline of reading Scripture. It is only through discernment that we can truly understand God’s Word and correctly apply it to our lives and to our increasingly complex world. And therefore, it is only through cultivating a practice of discernment that we can know and follow God’s will for our lives. In other words, discernment is what enables us to think biblically about our lives, our church, and our world.
By immersing ourselves in God’s Word, with particular focus on passages that deal with light and darkness, wisdom and folly, discernment and decision making and discovering God’s will, and by engaging in spiritual practices that help us cultivate discerning hearts, we will explore together what discernment means, why it matters, and how we can practice it, both as individuals and as a church.
There are several different ways to participate:
