“We experimented with the many ways we identify or name God. One substitution that the ‘girlfriends’ drew strength and motivation from was replacing ‘he’ or ‘God’ with ‘The Word’.” The results of their work: 

The Word was in the word, and the world came into being through the Word; yet the world did know the Word.

The Word came to what was The Word’s own,

And the Word’s own people did not accept it.

But to all who received The Word,

Who believed in his name

The Word gave power to become children of God.

Doing Theology with Girlfriends meets on Monday nights at 7pm in the Millie Nelson room at Christensen Center.

How do girlfriends “do” theology?

Theology is addressing issues that we could simply classify as human issues. DTwG (our weekly bible study group) looks at issues from a girl’s perspective. We experience the questions together and together we explore answers!

Questions such as: Why is life the way it is?  What do we believe?  and Why?  Where is God in our suffering?  And many, many more questions.

Let’s gather every Monday: block out an hour of your time Girlfriends and let’s do theology starting Monday, September 14 @ 7:00pm in the Millie Nelson room!
