SUMMARY:Ladies Bible Study With Rebecca
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a case of the Mondays? Us too. Why not put on some yoga pants\, rock that messy bun\, and get your soul filled? \nThe beautiful thing about a virtual Bible study is you don’t have to be beautiful at all.

We can’t wait to share hope\, love\, and the truth from the Word of God with you! \n

SUMMARY:Men's Bible Study: Love\, Sex\, and Lasting Relationships
DESCRIPTION:There are so many temptations in the world around us to help us get us off track and confuse us about what a healthy and strong relationship looks like. We are deceived into thinking the world’s view of love and relationships is the best option. \n“There’s a better way to find love\, stay in love\, and grow in intimacy for a lifetime\,” says Chip Ingram\, “It’s God’s way.” Whether single or married\, happy or searching for hope\, Chip’s series\, Love\, Sex\, and Lasting Relationships\, will help you discover that by following God’s prescription\, you can create a love that lasts. \nThis ten session study\, led by Desert Streams Co-Founder Dr. David Aycock\, will help men discover God’s best plan for a lifetime of love and intimacy. \nUpdate as of 3/18 : This class is at capacity. We purposely wanted to keep it small so men could be open\, honest\, and really get what the Lord intended for them to get out of the class. We hope to offer it again\, so please let us know if it is of interest to you or your men’s group. We are more than happy to share our resources with you!

SUMMARY:Finding God Faithful
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we trace the path of Joseph’s life in the Book of Genesis to observe how God’s sovereignty reigns\, even in our darkest moments. Learn to recognize when God is working during periods of waiting\, trust God’s plan when life doesn’t make sense\, and rest in the sufficiency of His presence in every circumstance. His provision is enough\, His presence is constant\, and His purpose is unstoppable. \nThis video series\, led by Kelly Minter\, will provide hope and encouragement as we learn and discuss how to apply the life lessons that Joseph learned\, such as: \nPlacing your hope in the God who is with you. \nLearning to trust God’s purposes when life doesn’t make sense. \nRecognizing how God is working in your waiting. \nResting in the sufficiency of God’s presence in every circumstance. \nThis eight week study costs $15 for materials. Please contact us at (704) 283-5032 or at desertstreams@frontier.com if you are interested in joining us! \n

SUMMARY:Ladies Bible Study with Courtnay

SUMMARY:Every Man's Battle
DESCRIPTION:For most of us\, becoming ensnared by sexual sin happened easily\, like slipping off an icy log. Perhaps you’ve mustered the hope that you would someday be free from sexual sin and expected to grow out of it\, like outgrowing acne. Perhaps you waited with each birthday for your sexual impurity to clear up. It never did. Later you assumed that you’d be freed naturally through marriage. But\, as for many of us\, that didn’t happen either. \nWe’ve known those who have failed in their battle for sexual purity\, and we know some who have won. The difference? Those who won hated their impurity. They were going to war and were going to win – or die trying. Every resource was leveled upon the foe. \nJoin us at Desert Streams Ministry for this eight week series\, led by Dr. David  Aycock\, to learn practical tools that help men live with sexual integrity. The cost is $15 and we would encourage every man to attend this life changing study; it could very well change your life! \n

SUMMARY:Mental Health Awareness Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Desert Streams is excited to be a part of this event- everyone is invited! Stop by and see us  \nMENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS WEEKEND\nTransformation Church- Indian Land SC\nMay 6-7\, 2017 \nFor far too long\, mental illness has been misunderstood\, ignored\, or not fully supported by the Church. We believe the Church should be a resource and support for individuals and families dealing with this issue that affects so many people. \nCurrent estimates indicate that 1 in 4 people are affected by mental illness. There are false conceptions that if you suffer from mental illness you must pray harder or “be a better Christian.” This stigma must be erased so people are empowered to get the help they need. \nIn light of this need\, Transformation Church is preparing for our 3rd Annual Mental Health Awareness Event. This initiative exists so the Church may become a leading resource in the community for mental health awareness and to erase the stigma. \nSATURDAY • MAY 6\nJoin us for a resource fair\, breakout sessions\, and guest speaker David Mandani.\n9am – 2pm \nSUNDAY • MAY 7\nSheila Walsh will be the guest speaker for all three of our morning services.\n8:15\, 10 & 11:45a

SUMMARY:The Armor of God by Priscilla Shirer
DESCRIPTION:All day\, every day\, an invisible war rages around you — unseen\, unheard\, yet felt throughout every aspect of your life. A devoted\, devilish enemy seeks to wreak havoc on everything that matters to you. He’s after your heart\, your mind\, your marriage\, your children\, your relationships\, your resilience\, your dreams\, and your destiny. \n\nBut his battle plan depends on catching you unaware and unarmed. If you’re tired of being pushed around and caught with your guard down\, this study is for you. \nThe 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. \nWe are excited to announce that starting Tuesday mornings\, January 17th – February 28th from 10-11:30\, we will be exploring Priscilla Shirer’s study\, The Armor of God. The cost is $15 for this 7 week study. Let us know through our FB page\,  our email (desertstreams@frontier.com)\, or give us a call at 704-283-5032. Ladies\, bring a friend or come as you are- we look forward to seeing you there!
