Christian Story - Co-Ed Bible Class
This nine-week course is designed to provide people with a framework for understanding how all 66 books of the Bible fit together into one overarching narrative: the Christian Story. We will not attempt to read through the entire Bible in nine weeks but will direct you to texts which represent key moments in the story. As you become familiar with these landmarks in the overarching narrative, you will be able to understand how other sections of the Bible fit into the framework of the Christian Story.
Who's it for? Anyone who wants an overview of the Bible story and wants to understand how its books fit together.
Emotionally Healthy Spirituality
This course is a ten-session Bible study on the integration of emotional health and contemplative spirituality. Many sincere followers of Jesus Christ, who are considered to be "mature" Christians, passionate about knowing God and His Word, and actively involved in ministries within the church, are often stuck at a level of spiritual immaturity. This is especially true when faced with interpersonal conflicts and crises.
Who's it for? Anyone who wants to begin the journey of implementing biblical truth for emotional and spiritual health and wholeness.
Essentials Course
As Westside Church, “We exist to know Jesus and to make Jesus known.” But what does that actually mean? Practically, what does that look like? Essentials is designed to answer these questions. This three-week course will unpack our mission, vision, and values while exploring who we are, what we believe, and where we’re going.
Who's it for? Anyone who wants to learn more about Westside. The Essentials Course is also the first step to be baptized, become a member, or serve in some capacities at the church.
Marriage Prep
It is our conviction that we need to help couples to prepare well for a life-long commitment to a godly and healthy marriage. The Marriage Prep Course provides couples with biblical and practical teaching on marriage, marriage mentorship, and time to go over your personal inventories.
Who's it for? Couples who are seriously dating or engaged and seeking biblical and practical teaching on a healthy, God-honouring marriage.
Men's Morning Study
This group will meet weekly and go through 1 Peter, a powerful letter written to persecuted Gentile Christians, reminding them that they are chosen by God and have a future hope in Jesus. Come and study 1 Peter with us, reflecting on a biblical response to the difficult and challenging times in which we live.
Who's it for? All men who seek to go deeper in their faith.
Parenting Foundations Class
God has given Christian parents the privilege and responsibility of raising their children to know and love Jesus Christ, but the church is here so that every follower has a community of believers around them for help and support.
Who's it for? All parents, new parents, parents-to-be, and those interested in dedicating their children at Westside.
Wednesday Morning Bible Class for Women
Are you wondering how to deepen the roots of your faith as you face the future? Join us to learn from the Apostle Paul. This Winter, we will be studying his letter to the Corinthian church. As we study it, we'll be moved and challenged by Paul's love for Jesus and the church, his single-minded commitment to the truth, and his unshakeable trust and dependence on God amid suffering and rejection.
Who's it for? All women who seek go deeper in their faith.
