The Christian Women in our Lives
If you’re a Christian woman you probably have a good network of friends. Maybe your church has a group that brings Christian women together. Most denominations have women organizations that encourage us coming together on a regular basis to strengthen our faith. They even send publications to their members on women’s topics.As a Christian woman, you may wonder if it is important that all your friends be Christian women. While it is good to surround yourself with Christian women, it is not necessary for all your women friends to be Christian. As Christians we hope to share our faith, so setting an example of how your life has changed for the better through Christ’s love is something you hope to share with your friends.However, sometimes we become Christians so we can get rid of some of the baggage we’ve carried around that hold us back from leading a good life. Unfortunately that might equate to losing some of our friends. So, if you’re a Christian woman, it is only natural that at some point in your life, hopefully sooner than later, that you establish a network of good Christian women who will help you to grow in Christ.Where do you find like minded Christian women?Church. Always start at your church. Hopefully if you’ve taken a good amount of time to select the right church, you know that the people in that church are like-minded.Community Organizations. Other churches in the area sometimes have groups not offered in your own church. This is a great way to expand your horizons and meet more Christian women. Some churches even share events and Bible studies together.Online. Yes, the internet has its good points. Check out your denominations web page, they may link you to other organizations in your area. Look for Christian women board. Many women, and work at home boards have a forum set up by religion so Christian women can get together on their boards. If you are a member of another forum poke around and see if they have a Christian women’s board. If not suggest one.
Retreats. Like to travel outside the internet? Take advantage of advertised retreats at your local church. If your church doesn’t host one, you can look into Christian retreat and conference centers for what events they are holding that might be open for all Christians.
On Vacation. When you vacation, take the opportunity to find a church in the area you will be visiting. It is a great way to make new friends and if it is a place you travel to frequently, or where you stay for extended periods of time, than you will appreciate keeping up with your faith.
What do you do to keep ties with Christian women in your life? Are their forums or organizations you can recommend to others? We’d love to hear all about it.
