Women

IDC Women’s Discipleship desires to see lives changed by the gospel through equipping women to grow into faithful believers and disciple-makers within the context of the local church.

Guiding Principles

  • Biblical literacy and spiritual vitality
    • We equip women to grow in their relationship with the Lord through study of the Scriptures and commitment to gospel-saturated spiritual disciplines.
  • Biblical community
    • We provide opportunities to foster gospel relationships among the women in our church, including Titus 2 discipling relationships.
  • Leadership development
    • We encourage women to grow in discernment, discipleship, and leadership.

Bible Studies & Book Clubs

Women’s Bible studies and book clubs are offered in the spring and fall: from March through May, and from September through November. Book clubs and Bible studies meet at a variety of times and locations: at Imago Dei as well as in homes, in the mornings and evenings. A group for Spanish speakers is also offered. Childcare is provided for groups meeting at the IDC building.

Women’s Events

In addition to Bible studies and book clubs, women’s events are offered periodically, such as hosting an author, gathering for a lament service, or getting away for a women’s retreat. Upcoming events will be listed on the IDC website and in the newsletter.

Prayer

Another focus of women’s discipleship is prayer: we have a team of women who pray for all female members throughout the year. If you have a prayer request to share with the prayer team, email shauna@idcraleigh.com or allison.cashman@yahoo.com.

Titus 2 Relationships

We encourage women to meet regularly with other believers for accountability and gospel community. For a suggested list of accountability questions, click here.

Live Spanish translation is available during the 9:00 am service on Sundays, we meet monthly at Hispanic Initiative gatherings for a time of fellowship, musical worship, and teaching from the Bible, and also offer various discipleship opportunities throughout the year. Our Hispanic Initiative gatherings are typically at 6:30 pm on the last Saturday of each month at the IDC building. View the church calendar for specific dates.
