As women of Alliance Bible Fellowship we desire to equip, encourage, and engage with one another in an effort to become and multiply fully-devoted followers of Christ. Here are some ways to get involved in that effort with us:
Fall Bible Studies
Bible Study: God of Deliverance
Beginning Thursday, September 15 – Morning and Evening
•Thursday Mornings in-person at the church 9:30-11:30am
•Thursday Evenings in-person at the church 6:30-8:00pm
•Thursday Online Zoom Group – 6:30-8:00pm
Join us for “God of Deliverance,” the women’s fall Bible study.
“Blessed be the Lord, who has delivered you.” —Exodus 18:10
With that introduction, we enter into the story of the Hebrew people in the Book of Exodus. No longer under the protection of their forefather Joseph, the children of Israel became slaves to the Egyptians. But God was raising up a deliverer in Moses, to lead His people from bondage to freedom so they could worship Him.
The exodus of the Israelites shapes our understanding of the whole Bible, its themes reverberating all the way to Revelation. Exodus is the birth narrative of a nation unmistakably guided by the Great Deliverer.
In this 10-session verse-by-verse study of Exodus 1–18, Jen Wilkin shows us that Israel’s story is our story: the same God who delivered Israel also delivers all those He loves from slavery to sin and from service to the pharaohs of this world. He lifts our eyes to the promised land He has prepared where we dwell with I AM and worship Him as the one true God.
Bible Study: Intentional Praise
Beginning Thursday, September 15, at 9:30am for 8 weeks

Core Courses
NEW beginning Wednesday, November 2 | 6:00pm
Scripture fitness is necessary for disciples who want to “grow in grace.” Yet, a lack of skills or boring routines keep many from becoming “cross fit” in the use of God’s word. This course is designed for those who find Bible study to be boring or difficult, who rely on others to explain the meaning of a passage, or who simply need a refresher course in Bible study skills. You will receive instruction and guided practice in Bible study routines that will dramatically increase your gleanings from Scripture.
