ANNOUNCING A NEW BIBLE STUDY

FOR ALL WOMEN OF NAZARETH AND FRIENDS!!!!“HAVING A MARY HEART IN A MARTHA WORLD”

BY: Joanna Weaver

The life of a woman today isn’t really all that different fom that of Mary and Martha in the New Testament. Like, Mary you long to sit at the Lord’s feet….but the daily demands of a busy world leave you alone. Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him….yet you struggle with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy. Then comes Jesus into the midst of your busy life, to extend the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters. He invites you to choose “the better part”. Joanna Weaver, author of “Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World” shows how we can draw closer to our Lord; deepening our devotion, strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy. Join this 12 week bible study beginning Monday, September 13 and ending Monday November 29 to discover how to find intimacy with God in the busyness of life. The study will be at Nazareth Community Church each Monday at 7pm until 8:15pm. We will read one chapter each week (each chapter is about 20 pages) and complete a study guide for discussion which is ten questions.
