Many current members expressed interest in doing a Bible Study/Book Study component to our mom's group this year, and since we are able to meet weekly, we finally have time to fit it in!
We realize that a book study is not for everyone, so we will be updating the calendar with the dates of meetings that will be focused on the book, that way you can plan your schedule accordingly.
The book that we have chosen to read is called
Mothers of the Bible: A Devotional. HMUMC Time Out! will be providing personal copies of books to members wishing to participate in this activity.
Product Description from Amazon:
Mothers of the Bible takes you inside the lives of twelve biblical mothers whose struggles to live with faith and courage are much like yours. Through their successes and failures alike, these women from long ago will encourage you and strengthen you in your challenging and rewarding role as a mother.
From the Back Cover:
Children need the love, wisdom, and nurture that mothers are uniquely capable of giving. Mothers of the Biblecan help you fulfill your own calling as a mother by offering insights from God's Word. Exploring the lives of women in the Bible can help strengthen your faith and your effectiveness as a mother. Like you, these mothers wanted the best for their children. And like you, they sometimes faced difficulties that challenged their faith. Looking to them can help deepen your understanding of Scripture, enabling you to experience more of God's love so you can reflect that love to your children. Adapted from Women of the Bible, Mothers of the Bible furnishes a unique twelve-week devotional experience. Each week becomes a personal retreat focused on the life of a particular biblical mother. Designed for personal prayer and study or for use in small groups, Mothers of the Biblewill help you ground your relationship with your children on God's Word.
