Women’s Ministry Committee Vision Statement

The Women’s Ministry of Blue Ridge Bible Church desires to first and foremost support our elders in fulfilling the mission of our church.

The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. I Timothy 1:5

Our primary goals are to help and encourage all women to seek a sincere faith through an intimate relationship with God (Deut. 6:5; Psalm 119:2), to know and love the Scriptures (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 119:165, Proverbs 2:6), to handle life’s situations in a biblical manner so that they will have a pure heart and a good conscience (Psalm 119:9-11), and to demonstrate love through serving God and others unselfishly (Deut. 10:20; Gal. 5:13).

Complementing these primary goals, we specifically desire to:

• Promote Biblical womanhood in the roles to which God has called women as wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, working professionals, students, etc. (Proverbs 31:10-31; Titus 2:3-5; 1 Peter 3:1-4)
• Teach and encourage married women to love, honor, and obey their husbands, fully supporting them as the head of the home. (Titus 2:4; Ephesians 5:22, 33)
• Affirm the value of motherhood and the importance of strong families in a culture that often marginalizes these values (Psalm 127:3-5; Psalm 128:3-4; 1 Tim. 2:15)
• Promote intimate relationships among women (John 13:34-35)
• Build leaders among our women to minister to women (Titus 2:3)
• Encourage and equip women to do good works (1 Tim. 2:10; 5:10)
• Bring help and healing to hurting women (Gal. 6:2; James 5:16)
• Support and facilitate women in their outreach to unsaved friends, neighbors, and family (Matt. 28:19-20)
• Support and encourage our missionary women so they can minister to others more effectively (2 Thess. 3:1-2; Phil. 4:10, 15-17)
• Promote unity, genuine love, and forbearance among women of all ages at Blue Ridge (Eph. 4:1-3)
