Summer is a perfect time to start a new Bible study | TDGC

Topical Studies

First, let’s take a look at some of our favorite topical Bible studies! These studies explore what the Bible teaches us about specific topics like motherhood, anxiety, contentment, and more.

 

Worthy | TDGC

Worthy: Embracing Your Identity in Christ

This summer, focus on finding your true self…in Christ! In a world that tempts you to find your identity in your relationship status, career, or passions, Worthy is a Bible study that teaches you about who you truly are in Jesus Christ. Each week, you’ll learn a different identity that the Bible uses to describe Christians, and you’ll see how you can live confidently in the identities that God alone has given you.

It Is Well | TDGC

It Is Well: Walking Away from Anxiety and into God’s Word

Do you feel anxious about the summer ahead of you? Spend some time soaking in God’s Word and learn what He teaches us about anxiety. It Is Well is a study that will teach you how God loves and cares for you, even in the middle of your deepest worries. You’ll walk away trusting that the Lord can redeem all your fears for His glory.

(Note: We pray that the study will be helpful and encouraging, but it is not a replacement for medical treatment or biblical counseling. If you are struggling with intense anxiety, we encourage you to reach out to your pastor and/or a healthcare professional.)

Is God Enough for Me? | TDGC

Is God Enough For Me? Finding Real Contentment in Christ

Contentment can be difficult—especially when you are tempted to envy other people’s summer plans, vacations, and adventures.
