WOW Resumes Monday, January 13
JAN 13, NEW WOW SEMESTER
The "BOOK of the SERVANT" in ISAIAH
Happy New Year!
Ladies, welcome to 2020. This may be a very propitious year in God’s economy, and we want to be where HE IS WORKING! Of ALL the books in the canon, Isaiah gives us the BROADEST view of our Great God!
Consider this passage:
We’re going to unpack this and many other awesome passages on the sovereignty of God. Don’t you want to know the purposes of God? (Wow) We’ll move through Isaiah’s Book of the Servant & the Book of the Conqueror, all detailing the promises of Christ & God’s rescue of Judah. (this fall we tackled the Book of the King).
Join women from more than 15 area Charlotte churches to fellowship and “Dig Deep” into the character of Our God.
With anticipation of ALL that a New Year holds,
Dr A

I AM GOD, and there is No Other; I am GOD and there is NONE like me!
I declare the end from the beginning, saying.. I WILL accomplish ALL my purpose!”

Fall is Coming
Monday evenings, September 16 - December 2 at 6:45 p.m. at Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church.
LADIES: FALL IS COMING! With all its particular challenges and joys. The women of WOW are launching into our deepest study yet~ Isaiah, the greatest of the major Biblical Prophets.
Some bullet points as to “why ISAIAH” and what it will bring to your spiritual life/home/walk of faith:
Just to whet your appetite! In addition, WOW focuses on fellowship w/other sisters in Christ from a variety of denominations, and small-group accountability.
Here’s our Year Verse, Class~ can you commit it to memory?
Trust in the LORD Forever, for the Lord GOD is an everlasting rock.
YOUR NAME & RENOWN ARE THE DESIRE OF OUR HEARTS !
—Isaiah 26:3,8
WOW RESUMES Monday evening, Sept 16 at 6:45 p.m. for refreshments & registration. We will meet Monday evenings until December 2.
We meet at Good Shepherd Presbyterian, 3307 Rea Road, Charlotte, NC. We end by 8:30 p.m.

Some bullet points as to “why ISAIAH” and what it will bring to your spiritual life/home/walk of faith:
- Themes of Isaiah are the Holiness & Sovereignty of God ~ are there areas where you need a “higher view” of God’s careful watchcare over ALL your life events? (check ISA 40)...
- Impatience & Anxiety are both addressed by the fact that Our Sovereign God is IN CONTROL (Isa 46:10)
- COMFORT is another theme of Isaiah~ does your heart need comforting by the Great Shepherd?
- Immoral lifestyle, governments & societies abound in 2019… how shall we view God’s plan for ALL nations? Isaiah addresses this..

Happy New Year!!!
WOMEN OF THE WORD BLOG, 2019
"My Times are in YOUR HANDS"…. Psalm 31:15 &
"He Knows the End from the Beginning" Isa 46:10
Can you think of any better duo of verses for the year ahead than these? Surely with Our God going ahead of us, we can have no anxiety.
2018 was a difficult year for me personally, with the loss of 2 of my 4 “lifelong” friends of 35 years, both unexpectedly. Yet each time, I had SUCH strong assurance that God was completely in control~ utterly persuaded that “underneath are the everlasting arms.” I wish this same mindset would surround me all the time!
This winter our class will study I Peter, the only New Testament book written specifically about suffering (hint: it never answers the ‘why?’ question, however…)
You are warmly invited to join us, beginning Feb 4, at Good Shepherd Presbyterian on Rea Road in Charlotte. We meet Monday evenings at 7-8:30.
Great books about Joy in Trials: Here’s a sampling~
Andrew Murray, A Believer’s Secret of Living Like Christ
Tim Keller, Walking With God in Times of Suffering
Elisabeth Elliot, A Path Through Suffering
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship
Philip Yancey, Reaching for the Invisible God
C. S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain
WOW Is a group of women from more than 15 churches in the Charlotte area, committed to the Lordship of Christ in ALL things, and studying His Word in-depth as a group~ in small group settings, at home, and through lecture.
Please join us one Monday Evening this Winter/Spring!
God bless your endeavors in 2019 ! We don’t go into this year alone, and that makes ALL the difference! …
Warmly,
AKLB
