Women's Thursday Bible Study - FULL
September 12 - November 21, 2024
Thursday Mornings | 9:30-11:00 AM
Facilitator | Karen Lesh
Book Study | None Like Him by Jen Wilkin
None Like Him by Jen Wilkin - God is self-existent, self-sufficient, eternal, immutable, omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign, infinite, and incomprehensible. We're not. And that's a good thing. Our limitations are by design. We were never meant to be God. But at the root of every sin is our rebellious desire to possess attributes that belong to God alone. Calling us to embrace our limits as a means of glorifying God's limitless power, Jen Wilkin invites us to celebrate the freedom that comes when we rest in letting God be God.
(The homework for this study will be a chapter to read each week, verses for meditation and 4 questions. There is no DVD for this class so our time will be spent on discussing the material and verses, and connection and prayer time.)

A message about the book from author Jen Wilkin
"When I write my Bible studies, I ask my students to look first for what the text says is true about God. I have found this can be a hard question for them to answer. I know it was for me for many years. The more I learned of God’s character, the clearer it became that the Bible was first and foremost a book about who God was before it had anything to say about who I was. Once I began reading to discover God’s character I was able to see my own in relation to His, rather than independent of His.
We don't often take time to meditate on God’s attributes beyond just a passing acknowledgment, but when we do, our time in the Word is enriched. My prayer is that None Like Him would help us become more fluent in our vocabulary of those truths, and that we would see God and ourselves more clearly as a result."
