SUNDAYS

Intentional Parenting: 10 Ways To Be An Exceptional ParentIn A Quick Fix World by Doug & Cathy Fields

Teacher: David FordDates: Sundays, September 24 –October 22 (5 sessions)Time: 5:00-6:30 PMCost: $15 for workbookLocation: Room 245 (GROW Room)Please register by Sunday, September 17, so member books can be ordered.

Raising kids is a difficult challenge and it requires a plan—without a plan, parents often default to what we call “Quick-Fix Parenting.” Surviving each day is much easier than taking the time and energy to consider how your current parenting actions are impacting a child’s future. Unfortunately, quick and easy isn’t the same as good and effective. To be an exceptional parent, you need to be an intentional parent. Fortunately, help is available by veteran parents and best-selling authors, Doug and Cathy Fields—they want to help you move from Quick-Fix Parenting to Intentional Parenting. They’ve put together a workbook that provides you with 10 actions that will impact the future of your children. You can get started implementing these ideas into your parenting and you will see immediate results in your child—no matter their age. It’s NEVER too early to start?

If you’ve ever run, you’ve probably discovered that it is more enjoyable and much easier when you are running with someone else. God never intended us to run alone—that’s the purpose of the church. In this class, we will learn about four things that unite us as we “run” together—Our Salvation Story, Our Mission/Vision/Strategy, Our Beliefs and Values, and Our Commitments. Because Northside is made up of people from many different backgrounds, this experience is intended to clearly explain who we are, what we believe, and how to get connected.

It Takes Discipline

Teacher: Steve Allen Dates: Wednesdays, September 6 and 13Time: 6:00-7:30pmCost: NoneLocation: Room 134Please register by Sunday, September 3 so adequate materials will be available.

Running a race requires discipline. Our enthusiasm will help us get started but it won’t take us across the finish line. The same is true in the Christian life. That’s why the Bible says, “Take the time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit.” In this class you learn the spiritual disciplines that are critical to your success in “The Race” God has called us all to run.Prerequisite: Running Together

TUESDAYS

The Armor Of God by Priscilla Shirer

Teacher: Sue SandidgeDates: Tuesdays, beginning September 12 (7 sessions)Time: 6:30-8:30pm Cost: $13.00 – Member BookLocation: Room 132Please register by September 3 so workbooks can be ordered.

This study will help develop an effective prayer life to combat the daily challenges we face. The enemy always fails miserably when he meets a woman dressed for the occasion. The Armor of God, more than merely a biblical description of the believer's inventory, is an action plan for putting it on and developing a personalized strategy to secure victory.

Introducing House of Prayer!Today there is a desperate need for men and women of God who know how to pray. People who will not be satisfied with what they can accomplish in their power. Instead, they long to see the power and the glory of the Living God invade the Church with supernatural displays of His Deity! Jesus said, “My house shall be called a house of prayer.” The church in Acts was birthed out of a prayer meeting. The great Revivals in American were begun with prayer! It is time for Christ-followers to fall on their knees and pray to the One who can change our country, our community, our church, our families, and our very lives through the power of the Holy Spirit. Join us Wednesdays, beginning September 20 as we come together to humble ourselves and ask our Heavenly Father to show us mercy and to anoint our lives and our church with His power!

What is the deep cry of your heart? The ache in your soul that keeps you up at night? The prayer you keep repeating? Jesus not only cares about this deep, spiritual wrestling, but He also wants to step in and see you through it. Join Lysa TerKeurst on the streets of Israel to explore the seven I AM statements of Jesus found in the Gospel of John. Through this interactive, in-depth study we will be trading feelings of emptiness and depletion for the fullness of knowing who Jesus is like never before.

Many people are intrigued by what lies beyond death’s door, but we live in an age bombarded with many conflicting views. How can we be sure of what is true? In this eye-opening study you’ll examine the Bible’s answers about death and what comes next. As you confront the inevitability of death in the context of the promise of heaven and the reality of hell, you will be challenged to examine your heart – and in doing so, find that, in grabbing hold of the hope of eternal life, the sting of death is replaced with peace.

WEDNESDAYS

HOUSE OF PRAYER

When: Wednesdays beginning September 20Time: 6:00-7:15pmLocation: Worship Center

The phrase house of prayer is from Isaiah 56:7, where it is used twice: “These [foreigners] I will bring to My holy mountain and give them joy in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on My altar; for My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

It is clear that the place where believers worship will be a place of prayer. It is our desire that Northside will be known as a HOUSE OF PRAYER. Join Pastor Rocky as we gather for a time of prayer and worship. Asking for revival in our world and lifting needs in our church to the Lord.
