Mama Bear Apologetics (Alternating with MomCo)

The problem with lies is they don’t often sound like lies. They seem harmless, and even sound right. So what’s a Mama Bear to do when her kids seem to be absorbing the culture’s lies uncritically?

Mama Bear Apologetics™ is the book you’ve been looking for. This mom-to-mom guide will equip you to teach your kids how to form their own biblical beliefs about what is true and what is false. Through transparent life stories and clear, practical applications—including prayer strategies—this band of Mama Bears offers you tools to train yourself, so you can turn around and train your kids.

Are you ready to answer the rallying cry, “Mess with our kids and we will demolish your arguments”?  Join the Mama Bears and raise your voice to protect your kids—by teaching them how to think through and address the issues head-on, yet with gentleness and respect.

COED Study: The Take Away

The Take Away will resume at North Campus on August 19th

Wednesdays | 6:30pm | The Sanctuary

Real Faith for Real Life:  The Book of James and the Call to Active Obedience

Taught by Dr. Jeff Ward, North Campus Pastor

How does real faith show up in our everyday lives? The Book of James is clear, urgent, and practical, urging believers to live out their beliefs. This Bible study will challenge and encourage you to go beyond words and into action. For instance, we’ll look at how genuine faith handles challenges with purpose, listens before speaking, rejects favoritism, controls the tongue, serves others with humility, and produces visible, obedient works. James doesn’t just tell us what to think—it changes how we live. Whether you’re new to Scripture or have been with Christ for years, this study will help you align your faith with your daily life.

Women's Fall Bible Study

Heaven. Who goes there? Where is it? What will we do there? Questions like these arise when we consider an eternal future beyond this physical life. How can we know the truth about what comes next?

In this 7-session video-based study, Jennifer Rothschild explores the subject of Heaven from a biblical perspective. She will separate what’s true about Heaven from what’s based on legend, media depictions, and hopeful guesses. As you walk through the study, you’ll not only gain a deeper understanding of what God has prepared for His children, but also learn how to live with confidence today as you look forward to the glorious unending that awaits. Don’t just wonder about Heaven—embrace it with a faith that turns anticipation into excitement and peace.

  • Dispel the myths and media-influenced images of heaven to gain a biblical understanding of this essential truth.
  • Unveils the truth about heaven.
  • Discover answers to some of your deepest and most pressing questions about heaven.
  • Refine your eternal perspective so you can see beyond this day, this problem, and this situation.
  • Realize how your hope for tomorrow should shape how you live today.

Fall Parenting Bible Study

Parenting: Getting It Right by Andy & Sandra Stanley

Parent with purpose and feel confident about raising a healthy and happy family.

In the six-session video study (video streaming code included), Andy and Sandra combine their experience and wisdom to help viewers identify and embrace their it—their win as parents. In an inviting and conversational approach that is both informative and accessible, the Stanleys discuss:

The four stages of parenting and how to excel at each stage.

How to parent with the end goals in mind.

An approach to discipline that strengthens relationships and increases trust and respect.

How to help your child develop a strong faith of their own.

As parents of three grown children and cofounders of North Point Ministries, one of the largest church networks in the country, the Stanleys are seasoned experts on faith and parenting. Together they have spent decades counseling families and mentoring moms and dads while leaning into mentors of their own.

With their help, you won’t have to constantly wonder whether you’re getting it right as a parent. Start here and feel confident about raising children who will enjoy being together and with you, even when they’re no longer living under your roof.

“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”

– Acts 2:42-47
