Sherwood Women's Ministry

The Women’s Ministry at Sherwood exists to lead women to accept Christ as Lord and Savior, to develop intimacy with Christ through deep prayer,  to study and trust the Word of God to guide their daily lives, and to effectively minister to others. This ministry, although based out of Sherwood Baptist Church, is truly a ministry to Albany and the surrounding communities. We have women of all backgrounds, denominations, and walks of life involved in the various aspects of our Women’s Ministry.

WOMEN'S BIBLE STUDIES AND OPPORTUNITIES

TUESDAYS AT 9:30 AM

Precept – 2 Thessalonians + Titus

FAITH 211 | August 13–November 19 | Bennett

The Thessalonian believers were interested in the end times, just as we are today, but they were confused until they received this letter from Paul. We’ll study more about the day of the Lord and the coming of Christ as we study 2 Thessalonians. In Paul’s letter to Titus, we’ll learn how to live with integrity in a nation without morals. Can the church effectively engage and change this destructive condition in our society? How does your life reflect your faith? Develop character and integrity in the midst of a society that has lost respect for God.

“We Over Me”

FELLOWSHIP 103-106 | Begins August 13 | Sharber
“We Over Me” is an in-depth look at the opening three chapters of Revelation, which contain letters to seven specific local churches. Jesus sees and knows the struggles, the sins, and the sacrifices of each church intimately. He commends and corrects each one personally. Revelation isn’t just a book about a future unfolding, but also a call to the Bride of Christ to persevere and be pure. Jesus is coming back for His people, but He isn’t content for us to limp along as we wait for Him. Whether our churches flourish or flounder depends on each member’s commitment to personal holiness. Join us as we focus on how to choose “We Over Me” in the church.

* Childcare is provided. Workbooks available for purchase in the Source Bookstore. Homework is encouraged.

WEDNESDAYS AT 6:30 PM

Revelation

FELLOWSHIP 103-106 | August 14 – October 30 | Bland + Wari
Jen Wilkin helps women grab hold of the encouragement John’s Revelation offers the church. Sometimes seen as hard to understand, Revelation is God-breathed and inspired and also accessible as we walk through its pages with the Holy Spirit as our instructor. Come join in as Revelation is revealed as the culmination of God’s Great Story.

None Like Him

FELLOWSHIP 101-102,107-108 | August 14 – October 30 | Sebesta + Casey
The book explores 10 attributes of God that describe Him alone. God is self-existent, self-sufficient, eternal, immutable, omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign, infinite, and incomprehensible. We’re not and that’s a good thing. Instead of relying on ourselves, we rest in trusting Him and letting Him be God. When we come together each week, there will be time for discussion, prayer and further exploration of the themes in each chapter.

* Childcare is provided. Workbooks available for purchase in the Source Bookstore. Homework is encouraged.

UPCOMING WOMEN'S EVENTS

Cultivate 2024

September 20-21 | Sherwood Baptist Church

“Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.” – Psalm 37:3

The word “cultivate” means to prepare for and use for the raising of crops or to foster growth. We will spend a weekend cultivating the soil of our hearts through worship, large group teaching, breakout sessions, and much more!

RESOURCES FOR WOMEN

Bible Tabbing

This Bible tabbing resource is a valuable tool to help you locate, study, and memorize Scripture passages related to specific topics. Our Women’s Ministry Team compiled the topics and verses for a Ladies Night event focused on helping women get into the Word for themselves. However, these resources can be used individually, in a small group, or during a large event or gathering. We also created the Bible tabbing project with discipleship in mind, and we hope that many women share this process with other women. We pray these resources will foster a love for God and His Word as you seek to know Him and make Him known.

 

“The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether. They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover, by them Your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward.” – Psalm 19:7-11

This resource material is intended to be used with two Bible options available for purchase at The Source Bookstore.
