Just Women, a bold new magazine for Christian women provided by International Disciples Women's Ministries (IDWM), debuted in January 2009. This full-color, 32-page magazine is published quarterly — in Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. The magazine will be mailed directly to your home or church or wherever you'd like.
Just Women is the new official resource for Disciples Women's Ministries provided by IDWM and the Office of Disciples Women. IDWM is part of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada.
Inside the magazine you will find theme articles inspired by scripture; young women's perspectives on faith; multi-generational conversations; reflections on healthy living, stewardship, and Disciples history; Woman-to-Woman Worldwide program study material; devotions, meditations, and prayers; social action and justice ministries information; and news and notes from IDWM.
2010 Themes:
Winter 2010: Breaking the silence about abuse — from domestic battery to human trafficking, how can Christian women stand together to stop abuse
Spring 2010: Journeys through Revelation: Apocalyptic hope for today — an ecumenical Bible study
Summer 2010: Single and satisfied — breaking down stereotypes and honoring relationships around us
Fall 2010: Celebrate Quadrennial — if it happened in Greensboro, NC in June 2010, then it's celebrated here
Bible Study: Every Spring issue of Just Women is the Ecumenical Bible Study provided by Presbyterian Women. This Bible Study can be used throughout the year. The title of the 2010 Bible Study is Journeys through Revelation. The Bible Study can be ordered in Spanish.
Languages: To reflect and acknowledge the diversity among Disciples women, Just Women provides one article in Spanish in every issue; the cover article of every issue downloadable in Spanish, Korean, and French; an additional article in Korean or French in print once a year; and the entire Spring issue — the Ecumenical Bible Study — is available for order in Spanish.
