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.

Precept: 1, 2 and 3 John

FAITH 211 | August 12 – November 18 | Bennett

Take a journey through the Scriptures with the Apostle John, an eyewitness to the life of Jesus Christ. John walked with Jesus on earth, so it’s no wonder that he steps up to the plate when deceivers try to weave a story to lead believers away from the truth. In this Bible study on 1, 2 and 3 John, we will explore questions like: “How do you know if you’re really born again?” “What does it mean to be holy?” “What does it mean to love God?” “How do you know the truth?” “How do you stay confident in the truth that you have learned and loved?” Find answers to these and other questions as you take an in-depth look at several fundamentals of Christian beliefs.

TruthFilled Bible Study

FELLOWSHIP 101, 102, 107 & 108 | August 12 – September 23 | Sharber

Study the Book of Colossians and learn what it means to let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly (Colossians 3:16a). Life often brings seasons of confusion, struggle or discouragement, and in those times, we need gospel truth to anchor our hearts. In this seven-session, video-based study, you’ll follow Paul’s example as Ruth Chou Simons teaches how to rest in God’s character, rehearse your identity in Christ, respond in faith and remember God’s provision. In a world full of quick fixes and self-help advice, only the truth of God’s Word can truly satisfy.

Titus Bible Study

FELLOWSHIP 101, 102, 107 & 108 | September 30 – November 11 | Sharber

Explore every verse of Paul’s letter to Titus in this study focused on displaying the gospel of grace. You’ll discover the vital connection between right belief and right character—and how both testify to the goodness of the gospel. As we live out these truths, we reflect the beauty of the gospel to a watching world.

WEDNESDAYS

6:30 pm

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

Daniel

FELLOWSHIP 101-102 | September 3 – November 19 | Bland + Wari

Join us for a verse-by-verse journey through the book of Daniel. Together, we’ll journey through the text exploring major themes like God’s sovereignty, steadfast faith in the face of pressure, and His provision and protection in uncertain times. We’ll see how God reveals His power, keeps His promises and honors those who remain faithful to Him.

Abide

FELLOWSHIP 102-106 | September 3 – November 12 | McLeod + Sanders

How can we hold onto the assurance of our faith? How can we discern the truth from a lie? How can we know God loves us? In this study of 1, 2 and 3 John, Jen Wilkin will help you discover how, 2,000 years later, the apostle John’s words call to Christians in similar challenges to recall a great salvation and to abide in the truth. He reminds an early church facing division, deception and doubt to hold fast to what they know and to live like they believe it. And he reminds us as well.

SATURDAYS

6:30 pm | These classes will pause for summer break and will resume in the fall.

Rest + Renew

SHERWOOD TRAINING CENTER 207 (2205 Barnesdale Way) | Quarterly Meetings  | Willis

Ladies, are you feeling overwhelmed by exhaustion, shame, fear or isolation? You’re not alone—and there is hope. This class is a space to recharge, find rest and experience restoration through the unchanging truth of our identity in Jesus Christ. Come be encouraged and reminded that healing is possible. For more information about the next meeting, call 229-431-3101.

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.
