Welcome to Madison Christian Women.
Let me introduce myself.
I am part of Faith Community Bible Church, a Body and building located between campus and the Triangle neighborhood in Madison. Our church is called to prayer as a focus for ministry.
I’m involved with prayer ministry for inner healing and freedom, teaching, and ministry to women in areas of healing, sexual abuse, and emotional wholeness. I’m mom to three adult daughters and work as a writer and professional storyteller.
I put this blog together because I’d been thinking that the Body of Christ in Madison really needed more connection. I thought about a monthly freebie newspaper, perhaps. A website. Then, the idea of a blog was tossed in my lap. Hmmmm…are women over the age of 25 even reading these things? I decided to find out and am viewing this as an experiment. My goal is to spread news about resources, information, ministries, and insights for Christians, especially women, in Madison and the region.
If you like what you read, you can bookmark this blog to check for new entries. You can also use Madison Christians as your "home page" – meaning you’ll be greeted with madisonchristians.com every morning when you turn on the computer instead of google or some depressing news site sponsored by microsoft (or Apple, if you’re a mac convert like me).
As I write this blog, I’m thinking about things like:
What do women in the Body of Christ need?
What do women in ministry leadership need for growth and equipping?
What issues affect women in our community?
Where is the church ministering to, for, and with women? How can that be supported?
How can the church better understand the needs and lives of women, inside and outside the four walls?
How can we connect and defeat isolation, separation, denominationalism, and the kind of false and lie-based distance the enemy tries to keep between us?
So, that gives you a picture of what Madison Christian Women will bring to this cyber-space table.
Welcome to the discussion. I look forward to hearing from you. You can send comments and input to me at Julia@madisonchristians.com
Blessings to you all on this launch day for Madison Christians.
