I am a believer in vibrant Ladies Bible class programs.  Programs that involve women in relevant discussions about God’s word, introspection into how to change your life for the better based on God’s word and relationships that grow out of those times.  A congregation that has a growing, warm ladies Bible class program will benefit on so many different levels.  An interesting event happened in my adult Bible class about a year ago that started me thinking about this.   There are about 100 people in the Bible class that I attend at my home congregation.  During our discussion a man raised this question to the fellow men:  “How many of you are here because your girlfriend…your fiancé…your .wife….initially brought you? 

I was bowled over by the show of male hands. 

 By far, the majority of the men in the class raised their hands.  Now, most of them have grown beyond attending for their wife – they are ministry leaders, deacons and elders, but their initial motivation was through their wife or fiancé or girlfriend. 

 So that started me thinking about some of our most recent contacts that are studying and obeying the gospel…most of them were the women.  The initial contact to the family came thru the woman.  Hmmmm… 

The Lord’s church needs to be a place where women have the opportunity to grow spiritually.  It has to be a place where they can drink in the Word of God, it should be a place where they can ask questions about life and receive Godly answers.  All of these things happen in a vibrant ladies Bible class program.    

Womens Bible Study

We all need to do more Bible study.  One of the best ways to do that is to encourge daily Bible study in conjuntion with regular Bible classes.  That is what our Ilumination series is all about.  Each lesson has five sections to do during the week to help each one prepare for the next class.

What a great way to get more women studying the Bible every day.
