About us
What We’re All About
This isn’t just a Bible study for women—it’s a movement to equip Christian women to live out their faith in the marketplace. That has ripple effects in companies, communities, and families across Northeast Ohio.
We believe work is a form of worship. We believe our Monday-Friday matters just as much as our Sunday. And we believe when we put women around the table and Jesus at the center, we can make an eternal impact on our community.
That’s why CBWC exists: to provide a supportive environment for women to connect, grow in their faith, and share the hope of Jesus in the workplace and beyond.
Who We Are
We are women from all walks of life—business leaders, entrepreneurs, educators, professionals, caregivers, and everything in between—united by a shared desire to honor Christ in our work and relationships.
Our community is multigenerational and multidenominational, creating a rich and meaningful space where we learn from one another, encourage one another, and grow together in both faith and leadership.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need a willing heart. There’s a place for you here.

Our Partners
We are grateful for our partnership with Christian Business Men's Connection of Northeast Ohio (CBMC NE Ohio), a ministry that has been connecting men to Christ and each other since 1930. Together, we share the vision to see lives, families, and workplaces transformed by God through a growing disciple-making movement in every community across our nation.
