Anchor Points: The Trials & Triumphs in the Life of Moses
THURSDAY EVENING MEN’S STUDY
Like Moses, we have all experienced unique challenges. These challenges can serve to strengthen our character, give us boldness, and confirm our dependency on God. The trials and triumphs in life become anchor points, transforming our lives as we become godly men in an age of godlessness. Join us as we identify with Moses and become better equipped for our next desert or oasis experience. If you are new to Maranatha, this is a great way to get involved in our Men’s Ministry.

The Power of a Woman’s Words By Sharon Jaynes
THURSDAY EVENING WOMEN’S STUDY
A woman’s words can be used for good or evil. By choosing words that build instead of destroy, you can encourage your spouse, children, friends, co-workers, and family.

By learning to control the tongue, your relationships with others will flourish!

Live Fearlessly: A Study in the Book of Joshua By Lenya Heitzig and Penny Rose
THURSDAY EVENING WOMEN’S STUDY
After Moses’ death, God chose Joshua to be the next commander-in-chief. Big shoes to fill? You bet! Big problems to face? Oh yes! But God promised to guide and guard His faithful servant. We, too, face battles and challenges that seem larger than life. Just as He did for Joshua, God assures us of His continual presence. As we evaluate the state of our world, we’ll see that Live Fearlessly is relevant for us today.

Lord, I Want to Know You By Kay Arthur
THURSDAY EVENING WOMEN’S STUDY
Discover the limitless power of God’s name. So much of our confusion and pain results because we don’t know God— who He really is, how He works in our lives. But in this study, that will change. When you know God more fully by studying His names– Creator, Healer, Protector, Provider, and many others– you’ll find strength for times of trial, comfort for pain, provision for your soul’s deepest needs. And your walk with God will be transformed.
