Mentoring Women
Our study starts in Judges 21:25 with” In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit.” Those days are not so different from these days. What was Hannah’s secret to raising a child for God?
Shelley will walk with you through Hannah’s life and teach you several vital life lessons for mothers today.
She was beautiful into her 90’s, married a wealthy man, and eventually had a son who adored her. Sarah had it made.
We also know she could throw a fit, manipulate her husband to do what she wanted, and was a bear to work for. And yet, in 1 Peter 3:5 she is held up as a godly example to wives. In Hebrews 11:11 she is praised for her faith, and in Galatians 4:22-31 she represents the Spirit.
In Part 1 of this session, join Shelley as she dives into Sarah’s rich life. In Part 2, uncover several practical life lessons that will help you become the wife God wants you to be today.
Rather than putting yet another burden on your life, this two-part talk has three goals.
to prepare you for your roles as wife and mother
to offer you a positive attitude toward these directives
to have the word of God prominent in your thinking as it relates to your vocation

Beauty
Beauty is Skin Deep but Ugly Goes to the Bone
Women have been designed by God to be attracted to, admirers of, and creators of beauty!Yet, this God-given gift has been used as a device to discourage us and to hold us to an unattainable standard. In true cookie-cutter fashion, we are told we must look a certain way, wear a certain size, weigh a certain number, and act a certain way in order to capture the ever elusive butterfly of beauty.
The brittle shellac of beauty is indeed merely skin-deep and can mask the truth that ugly goes to the bone. Join Shelley Noonan as she examines how the world’s view of beauty is a cheap imitation of the real thing.
Mirror Mirror on the Wall: Who is the Fairest of Them All?

In this session, Shelley will lead you through an exercise that reveals the only Mirror that really matters and introduced to a beauty treatment that is life changing. The best part? You will discover the Fairest one of all.
Just Who Do You Think You Are? He Calls You Beautiful

Shelley encourages you to turn to Him and ask, “Who do You think I am?” You will be amazed to find out He calls you beautiful!

The Principles of the Three Weavers
Six Keys to Guarding your Daughter’s Heart.
The first man a little girl falls in love with is her father. Yet fathers are often unaware of the crucial role they play in their daughter’s lives as they grow from little girls to young women.
In this speaking topic, Shelley Noonan teaches fathers the five keys to guarding their daughters’ hearts. (This talk is based on Bob and Shelley’s book The Three Weavers Plus Companion Gude.)
Studies show that close, healthy father-daughter relationships create a sense of academic competence and a stronger sense of femininity in girls. In addition, girls are less likely to engage in early sexual behavior when the father-daughter relationship is strong. In this session, fathers come to understand the valuable role they can play. They learn how to capture their daughters’ hearts, how to encourage them to stay pure, and how to ensure they marry godly men.
