Building God’s Church Together Bible Study

God calls both men and women to serve in the church. Building God’s Church Together is designed to help congregations and leaders create thriving ministry environments where both women and men are encouraged to embrace their gifts and develop healthy, flourishing ministry partnerships.

7 Self-Guided Sessions

This online self-guided Bible study explores God’s biblical vision for men and women working together in the church. Over the course of seven asynchronous sessions, you’ll journey toward healthy, Christ-centered partnership between men and women in both ministry and everyday life.

The course launches on March 2

About the Series

Much of the Building God’s Church Together Bible study series is drawn from Isaiah 43:19, Joel 2:28-29, and Matthew 9:37-38, along with a recent book by Dr. Rob Dixon titled Together in Ministry. Dixon’s book offers a prophetic roadmap for individuals and communities as they seek to develop flourishing ministry partnerships for women and men. For additional insight, listen to a recent talk Dixon held with Vibrant Congregations.
