2021-22 Women’s Bible Study

NLD Women’s Bible Study exists to help women at New Life Dresher and in the greater community to know Jesus and to make Him known through the study of God’s word.

1 Samuel is a hero story, a dramatic book of personalities, rich in universal human experience with themes as important today as they were in ancient Israel. What makes a good leader? How does God challenge and mold a nation? What is true for leaders is true for individuals as they make choices for or against God. What can happen when jealousy turns to uncontrollable envy? How do these imperfect leaders point to the perfect Christ? Join us as we follow the rise of Israel’s last judge, Samuel, the beginning of a monarchy, and the intertwined lives of Saul and David. As part of our study, we will take a deep look into “a man after God’s own heart” through Psalms written by David about events in the 1 Samuel account. You will be encouraged to find out that the only hero worth worshipping is God.

Women’s Bible Study is a great place to get to know other women deeply as we study God’s Word together. We have a beautiful workbook to accompany us each week that includes study questions and other helpful elements to enrich our study. A large-group teaching time, taught by a rotation of NLD women, will be followed by small-group discussion. We offer the same content at two different times: Tuesday evenings from 7 pm-8:30 pm and Wednesday mornings from 9:15 am-11 am. We will also have a virtual-only option on Tuesday evenings. Childcare will be provided during the Wednesday morning study. The study begins on September 21 (Tuesday evening) and September 22 (Wednesday morning), and the following Tuesday for virtual groups.
