Wednesday, August 28
This was the introductory week to our fall study, Keep Holding On, and we aimed to answer the question: How do I know I can trust God’s promises?
To help us answer this, we looked at God’s faithfulness to Israel as it’s recorded in Joshua 23 & 24, and Shayla gave her testimony. Through her testimony, Shayla prompted us to consider broken earthly promises in our lives, the pain that they caused us and to consider decisions we may have made about God because of that pain.
To help us process these questions and better grasp God’s faithfulness, we walked through a worksheet, “Just Between Us.” You can download a copy below if you need one!
This will be a place where you can get to know different women who attend and serve at Cornerstone. Stay tuned for our first sister spotlight, coming soon!
