Bible Studies

Bible Studies equip women and men with tools to make studying the Bible a transforming, lifelong pursuit. Most of our Bible studies are open to anyone, including those who currently attend Westside, those who are exploring the Christian faith, and those who are without a home church. The more time we spend with Jesus in his Word, the better we will know and love him.

Foundations Workshop

Foundations Workshop is a three-week, co-ed workshop where we will explore the foundations of growing as a Christian through the Bible, prayer, and community. This is both a great introduction on how to grow as a Christian as well as a way to strengthen your foundation as you continue to grow. You will also understand how Westside weaves these three foundations into everything we do.

Quads

Quads are in-depth discipleship groups of four people who commit to met weekly for a year. Quads are built on what the Bible teaches about how Christians grow, with a trajectory toward becoming more effective instruments of God’s love in the lives of others. Because of the limited number of trained leaders, Quads are only for Westside members who have attended the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Course.

Why Membership?

Most people today think of membership as an empty formality, like joining a club or association. At Westside, we believe it’s impossible to follow the Bible’s teaching without it. In fact, the New Testament teaches that every believing Christian is already a member, or “body part” of the wider Body of Christ.

Formal church membership makes your relationship to a local body explicit, including commitments that you make to the church, and commitments that church leaders make to you. To read a fuller argument for membership, check out this article written by our senior pastor.

 What about Baptism?

We believe baptism is God's sign that a person is included among the people of God. As such, we will baptize new believers who have never been baptized, as well as the children of believers who are raised in the church. Baptism is an act of obedience to Jesus' command, but it does not guarantee anyone's salvation. For more information, check out our Baptism FAQ page.

Westside 101

If you’re interested in membership or just curious about our church, we encourage you to attend our Westside 101 seminar, which we offer regularly throughout the year. It is not a requirement for membership, but it will help you set healthy expectations if you do join.

How Do I Join?

Members don’t have to agree with every doctrinal position of our church. You just have to believe some basic truths of the Christian faith and agree to some basic commitments about being a member. To confirm that you do, our church administrator will set up a meeting with you and two of our elders to talk about your faith and begin to get to know you.

If you have questions or would like to initiate the membership process, please contact us.
