Word of God Workshops
Key discussions on the origin & canon of Scripture, the authority, clarity, necessity & sufficiency of Scripture, and how to read, interpret, & apply Scripture.
Workshop Description
The God of the universe could have chosen to reveal Himself in countless ways, yet He chose primarily to make Himself known through a Book. To many, this may seem foolish, overly simple, too narrow, or insufficiently supernatural. But those who truly know this God understand that He is both meek and mighty - a God who delights in displaying His power through what appears ordinary.
This same God who spoke the universe into existence, the Word in its truest form, humbled Himself by becoming a baby and dwelling among sinful humanity, all of whom He had created. He chose to speak. He chose men to write. And He chose to preserve His revelation in this precious Book we call the Bible.
As Christian women, we desire not only to submit ourselves to the authority of our God, but also to the authority of His Word. We long to honor, cherish and yield to the way He has chosen to reveal Himself. For this reason, the Bible is worthy of our time, our study, our meditation, and our daily engagement. The Word of God Workshops were created with the hope of helping more and more Christian women grow in this very pursuit.

“I’ve had this book for the past 10 years, just collecting dust in the back of my bookshelf. And when I heard Esther planning a workshop with this book, I knew it was a sign from God to dig deeper. I am so glad I was able to attend this workshop to rebuild my foundation and trust of who God is and what the Bible is really about. It was not as intimidating as I thought it would be! I plan on continue to read this book.”
