Women's Bible Study
We are offering two options for Fall 2026 Bible studies at Grace. There are 6 different study times to choose from. Read about and register for the studies below. All studies begin in September.
Rehearsing Our Story- Reading through the Bible 2026-27
Every five years the Women of Grace read through the whole Bible together. We call it our Read Through Year and it’s two semesters of tracing the one big story of God’s covenant love for His people. Whether you’ve never read through the whole Bible, or you’ve read it many times, rehearsing God’s story, which is our story, is the best way to stay anchored in the Truth. We begin in September and go into May, meeting together weekly for teaching and discussion time. We hope you’ll be part of this study as we Rehearse Our Story together.
The cost for study is $20. You can pay online when you register or in person the first week of study. You will receive your materials the first week. If you would like to pick up your materials early or would like to inquire about a scholarship, contact Lindsay at [email protected].
Studies are approximately 1 hour in length with the exception of Thursday, 9:15 am, which includes small group time until 11:00am.
All studies meet at Grace and are open to women 18 years and older.

Covenant PRECEPT STUDY
Wonder how the books of the Bible fit together? Did you know it is one full story that is unified through God’s covenants with His people. This Precept ™ topical study is an opportunity to dig into this overarching theme and see the incredible security we have when we trust in His Promises.
If you’ve never done a Precept ™ study or are apprehensive about taking on a lot of homework, this will be a good opportunity to learn or practice the tools of inductive study without overwhelming amounts of homework. Each week we will look at chunks of Scripture from various chapters in the Bible rather than taking on one full book.
If you have any questions about this study, please call Julie Lesslie at 785-550-0035.

Summer Study
Every five years the Women of Grace read through the whole Bible together. We call it our Read Through Year and it’s two semesters of tracing the one big story of God’s covenant love for His people. Whether you’ve never read through the whole Bible, or you’ve read it many times, rehearsing God’s story is the best way to stay anchored in the Truth. We will begin our next Read Through year in the Fall of 2026.
This summer, leading up to our Read Through Year, we are encouraging women to read From Garden to Glory by Courtney Doctor. You can read it on your own, gather with a friend, or join one of the discussion groups we’re offering. Each chapter ends with excellent questions for reflection.
From Garden to Glory
There will be 2 discussion times during the week:
- Sundays at 9:00am
- Wednesdays at 6:30pm
We will begin the week of June 14th and go through July.
The first week will be an introduction, and then we’ll read two chapters per week.
There is no registration, just come!
You will need to order your own book.
Aging with Grace, Flourishing in an Anti-Aging Culture by Sharon W. Betters & Susan Hunt
- Tuesdays 10:00am, 4 weeks – room 5
- Starts June 17, read chapters 1&2 for week 1
- Led by Cathy Wilson
- Purchase your own book, no registration needed
Aging with Grace by the Power of the Gospel…
There are many blessings that come with age: retirement, grandchildren, travel, and life experience. Today’s culture, however, marginalizes old age, often portraying it as burdensome and hopeless. Many older women can feel like an encumbrance rather than a blessing to their friends and family members. In response to these struggles, Sharon Betters and Susan Hunt encourage women to find hope through both real-life and biblical accounts of women who rediscovered gospel-rooted joy later in life. In each chapter, readers will be encouraged as they experience afresh a gospel that is big enough, good enough, and powerful enough to make every season of life significant and glorious.
The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, but Jeremiah Burroughs
- Thursdays 6:00am, room 3
- Meets June 26, July 10, July 24
- Led by Carol Ney
- Purchase your own book, no registration needed
The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, explores the nature and necessity of contentment in a Christian life. In his timeless classic Jeremiah Burroughs offers the following description: “Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit, which freely submits to and delights in God’s wise and fatherly disposal in every condition.” The book highlights the evils of murmuring and discontentment, emphasizing that true contentment is a result of knowing God’s love and resting in Christ.
