When You Pray

WOMEN // Wednesdays beginning September 4 // 9:30 a.m. // 254 North
Prayer is a gift—an invitation to talk with God. But prayer can be challenging. Do you have trouble thinking of words to say, fear some emotions are too intense to express to God, or reach the end of a day only to realize you haven’t prayed at all? You are not alone. Thankfully in God’s Word we encounter many voices who teach us how to pray. You’ll find that when you pray, your faith is strengthened and your heart is united to Jesus. Through these sessions, our hope is that these prayers will inspire our own prayers.

DivorceCare

CO-ED Wednesdays beginning September 4 // 6:00 p.m. // 252 North
DivorceCare is a 13-week program that helps people find healing and hope after divorce or separation. The program is designed to be a safe and caring place to find support and help. The program is made up of three main parts: video, group discussion, and a participant book for practical application. Each week, we watch a 30-minute video with practical suggestions from counselors and other experts on divorce recovery. DivorceCare leaders, Phyllis and MJ Lyons, have been through divorce themselves and want to help others get to a place of healing and recovery. The program presents biblical teaching on marriage, divorce, forgiveness, conflict resolution, and reconciliation.

Join us as we examine some questions every Christian should ask (and answer). Pastor David and other staff members will help us discover how Scripture answers these critical questions.

  • Can we know for sure that Jesus was raised from the dead?

  • Why does a good God allow so much suffering?

  • Were Adam and Eve real people?

  • Does the Bible condone genocide?

  • Does the Bible justify slavery?

  • Does the Bible actually condemn same-sex relationships?

  • Why doesn’t a loving God save everyone?

Growing Up: How to Be a Disciple Who Makes Disciples

CO-ED // Wednesdays beginning September 25 // 6:00 p.m. // 253 North
If you are serious about being a disciple of Jesus Christ, a discipleship group (D-group) can help you achieve that goal. Jesus established this model by forming and leading the first discipleship group. Through this class, we will address the “what, why, where and how” of discipleship groups. At Dawson, our desire is to launch new D-groups each year. By the end of this class, you will be equipped and ready to launch a D-group.

Spiritual Disciplines

CO-ED Wednesdays beginning September 25 // 6:15 p.m. // 255 North
In this first semester (Part 2 will be taught in spring 2025), we will explore the “classic” spiritual disciplines of the Christian faith: meditation, prayer, fasting, and study. Utilizing Richard Foster’s Celebration of Discipline and other trusted resources, we will follow a two-week cycle of reading, discussing as a group, and practicing each of the disciplines. Join us as we discover that the purpose of spiritual disciplines is to “allow us to place ourselves before God so that he can transform us.”
