Central Women Gilbert Tuesday Evening Group - Armor Of God by Priscilla Shirer

All day, every day, an invisible war rages around you — unseen, unheard, yet felt throughout every aspect of your life. A devoted, devilish enemy seeks to wreak havoc on everything that matters to you: your heart, your mind, your marriage, your children, your relationships, your resilience, your dreams, your destiny. But his battle plan depends on catching you unaware and unarmed. If you're tired of being pushed around and caught with your guard down, this study is for you. The enemy always fails miserably when he meets a woman dressed for the occasion. The Armor of God, more than merely a biblical description of the believer's inventory, is an action plan for putting it on and developing a personalized strategy to secure victory.

Central Women Mesa Tuesday Evening Group- God of Deliverance by Jen Wilkin

“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.

Central Women Gilbert Thursday Morning Group - God of Creation by Jen Wilkin

The opening lines and chapters of Genesis teach us fundamental truths about God. We watch Him bring light after darkness, order after chaos, and rest after toil—all through the power of His Word. Over 10 sessions of verse-by-verse study, dive into the first 11 chapters of Genesis by following three critical stages of understanding: comprehension, interpretation, and application. Teaching videos are key in understanding this study. Revisit familiar stories and historical figures, challenge your basic knowledge, and discover deeper meanings in the text. As God reveals Himself through Scripture, we can only begin to understand ourselves when we first glimpse the character, attributes, and promises of our Creator.

Central Women Gilbert Thursday Morning Group - I Want To Trust You But I Don't by Lysa TerKeurst

Where there’s a lack of trust, there’s a lack of peace. Broken trust can send us spiraling: Can anyone really be trusted? What if distrust is actually the wisest choice to make? What do I do with my doubts about God when He allows bad things to happen? Are there biblical answers for any of these? Lysa TerKeurst understands this kind of deep wrestling and has asked these same hard questions in the midst of her own relational heartbreaks and uncontrollable circumstances. But after thousands of hours of counseling intensives and theological research, Lysa has discovered how crucial it is to develop the stability you long for within yourself and with God, so you don’t become cynical and carry a broken belief system into every new relationship. With I Want to Trust You, but I Don’t and the accompanying six-session Bible study, Lysa will equip you to: Identify which of the 11 relational red flags are stirring up distrust, so you’re able to better pinpoint why you’re feeling uneasy. Recognize when it’s possible to repair a fractured relationship and how to do it with a five-step framework you can start using today. Understand what the Bible says about trusting God and others, so you’re equipped to make decisions that are in line with Scripture. Learn how to know the difference between a feeling you’re having and true discernment from the Holy Spirit, so you can move on from the past with more wisdom and assurance.
