A Woman Who Doesn’t Quit: Study on Ruth

Every woman will eventually face it: the temptation to give in and give up. But something transformative happens when a woman decides to persevere in the face of difficulty and pain. A woman who refuses to quit influences her world in ways she could never have imagined. Based on  the Book of Ruth, this study focuses on habits of Ruth’s that kept her eyes on God and found her way into the genealogy of Jesus.

Participants are encouraged to order a copy of A Woman Who Doesn’t Quit by Nicki Koziarz.

Centered

When we get too focused on the tasks in front of us, we end up disconnecting from ourselves. When we disconnect from ourselves, we disconnect from our Creator. Centered is a chance to slow down and reconnect with the God that breathes life into us. Centered is a one night only experience this Spring with built-in lenten themes.

Daytime Bible Study – Lent by Esau McCaulley

Every year, the church invites us into a season of repentance and fasting in preparation for Holy Week. It’s an invitation to turn away from our sins and toward the mercy and grace of Christ. Often, though, we experience the Lenten fast as either a mindless ritual or self-improvement program. In this 4 week book and video study, priest and scholar Esau McCaulley introduces the season of Lent, showing us how its prayers and rituals point us not just to our own sinfulness but also beyond it to our merciful Savior.

Participants are encouraged to order a copy of Lent by Esua McCaulley.

Exploring the Good Place Continued…

What does it mean to be good, and can people truly change? Join us as we continue to explore these questions through the lens of The Good Place, Season 2. This growth group will dive into key themes of grace, forgiveness, moral growth, and community, reflecting on how they align with Christian teachings—particularly within the Methodist tradition. Through thought-provoking discussions, we’ll consider how faith shapes our daily decisions and how spiritual growth is a lifelong journey supported by grace and community. No philosophy degree required—just a curious heart and an open mind!

Guardrails

Ever wonder what it would be like to have guardrails in other areas of your life—areas where culture baits you to the edge of disaster and then chastises you when you step across the line? Your friendships. Your finances. Your marriage. Maybe your greatest regret could have been avoided if you had established guardrails. In this five-session video-based small group Bible study, Andy Stanley challenges us to stop flirting with disaster and establish some personal guardrails.

Toxic Dancing

Codependency: using and abusing yourself or others to gain a desired feeling. Sounds a little too clinical and academic. Let’s get real. Who isn’t either looking for the exit or a pair of steel-toed shoes in a room full of toxic dancers? Life together can be clumsy and dangerous. Since codependency isn’t going away, maybe it’s time to talk about navigating life’s dance floor. MEN, join us for an eight-week exploration into codependency. As in all Pathway small groups, we encourage honesty along with an openness to let others in the room love and accept us right where we are. Hope and healing are a journey, not a destination. Don’t try to construct impressive or correct answers. Just be honest. Nobody is weird, odd or out of place in this room. Be real. Be loved.

UWF (United Women of Faith) Book Study – This Here Flesh: Spirituality, Liberation and the Stories that Make Us

In her stunning debut, the creator of Black Liturgies weaves sto- ries from three generations of her family alongside reflections to discover necessary rituals that connect us with belonging, dignity, and liberation. Here, Arthur Riley reflects on stories of her grand- mother and father and how they revealed an embodied, dignity-af- firming spirituality, not only in what they believed but in the act of living itself. Writing of her own childhood and coming to self, she boldly explores some of the most urgent questions of life and faith. This Here Flesh speaks to anyone who suspects our stories might have something to say to us.

Participants are encouraged to order a copy of This Here Flesh: Spirituality, Liberation and the Stories that Make Us by Arthur Riley.
