We warmly invite you to join the LCC Women’s Ministry Book Club for 2026!
If you're looking for community or you're a book enthusiast, this is an excellent opportunity to connect with other women, discuss each book, and strengthen your faith by connecting your insights with the NT letters. This year, we will read 7 books in a series that combines fiction with biblical commentary, maps, diagrams, and photos to help understand the culture of the New Testament and early Christianity. We'll go through these books chronologically, based on the characters and events mentioned by the authors (Bible college or seminary professors). When applicable, we'll also explore relevant New Testament books that align with the text. Although not required, it may help in understanding New Testament passages about living out faith in a non-Christian culture.
