Sisters, “God’s Girls” would love for you to join us in the church courtyard on Thursday mornings beginning Oct. 7th from 11 a.m. to noon as we discuss the book Captivating, Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman’s Soul by John and Stasi Eldredge (available on Amazon).
This book is less a Biblical study and more of an exploration and celebration of the feminine heart – a heart created by God to bear his image in our own, unique, feminine way. How is our expression of God’s character different from a man’s? What desires did God create in women that are different from those of men, thus revealing different facets of his heart and character? How do our inner desires and longings lead us to God or lead us to sin? This is a book of self discovery, thoughts to ponder about how uniquely God created us as women. In coming to better know our inner longings, we come to better know ourselves and the God who created us. Our spiritual journeys are illuminated – we see more clearly our responses to life, to its joys and its sorrows, and to the temptations of the world. Most importantly, the longings of our heart lead us to God, our rescuer from the world, our healer from pain, shame, and guilt, our champion who does for us what we cannot on our own. He is the God who sees us, who frees us, and empowers us to truly live.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact Lisa Sawhill at (706)254-6130 or Brenda Pyle at (770)381-6134.
