Discipleship at Westside

Westside's Mission and Purpose is to make disciples by helping people know, follow, and serve Jesus here and around the world. This means that everything we do is centered on the gospel and the command to make disciples (Matt. 28:19). A disciple is a learner and follower of Jesus, formed to display Jesus and replicate themselves. Our goal to help people know, follow, and serve Jesus is to make, mature, and multiply disciples of Jesus. At Westside, we are committed to walking with God's people in growth, care and equipping them for ministry work. Discipleship can happen in many different ways, and we provide many aspects of our ministries to encourage deeper growth along your journey.

9:00 Service Time

The Faith Once Delivered: A Study in Church History (Teacher: Mike Chipman)

Journey from the Resurrection to today as we trace the faith “once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3) across twenty-one centuries, applying Scripture to understand how God preserved, shaped, and guided His people. See how the church grew through persecution and renewal, and discover how its story strengthens our hope and discipleship today.


Ephesians: Doctrine and Deeds (Teachers: Shane Osborne & Justin Palmer)

A verse-by-verse study of Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus. The study will focus on Paul’s two-fold purpose: explaining to these new believers the basic doctrines of their faith and how their lives should look as a result.


I & II Peter: Living Hope and Lasting Faith (Teacher: Micah Sugg)

A verse-by-verse journey through Peter’s letters. Hold on to hope in an unsteady world. Explore what it means to live as God’s people—with hope in suffering, holiness in daily life, and confidence in Christ’s return. Grow in grace, deepen your faith, and see how God equips ordinary believers to persevere with joy.


10:30 Service Time

Revelation: The Revelation of Jesus Christ (Teacher: Stacey Cayton)

During this in-depth study, find joy, hope, and a renewed love for Jesus as we examine the blessings, the encouragement, and the warnings of Revelation.


A Journey Through the New Testament (Teacher: Ken Jewell)

The goal is to increase foundational understanding of how the New Testament came to be and why. Participants will gain an understanding of how to read the New Testament in its proper context, increasing confidence in the biblical text and fostering a growing love for Christ and His Gospel. We will focus on authorship, audience, historical context, some key passages, purpose, genre, and structure.


The Gospel of Mark (Teacher: David Eaton)

We will read through the gospel of Mark to discover what the gospel writer says about the Christ. We will pay attention to the literary themes and narrative flow that the gospel writer uses to tell the story. We’ll discover the “Marhan secret,” the importance of “the way” and see how Mark uses foreshadowing to anticipate the fate of the Messiah and his followers. We’ll even learn about “Markan sandwiches” and other keys to getting the most out of the gospel.

Small Groups

At Westside, small groups aim to help one another be DOERS of God's Word and not just HEARERS only. Without community, it can be very easy to come to church, sing some songs, listen to a sermon, and then leave without it having any impact on our lives. The hope for small groups is to change this by bringing people together to discuss the previous Sunday's sermon and help one another apply it to their lives. So, in short, small groups are sermon-based and application-based groups.

If you are interested in leading a Small Group, contact Pastor Luke Henry.

D-Groups

A Discipleship Group, or a “D-Group,” is a gender-specific, closed group of 3-5 believers who meet together weekly for the purpose of accelerated spiritual transformation. Groups meet for 12-18 months with the expectation that participants will start their own group. They meet on a weekly basis to help each other grow and mature spiritually and to hold each other accountable. Some weekly habits are bible reading, scripture memorization, journaling, prayer, and accountability. Through our D-Groups, we are creating an intimate setting of intentional discipleship that puts high emphasis on accountability, commitment, responsibility, and expectation. Each believer who goes through a D-Group will experience personal accountability, mutual edification, and spiritual enrichment. If you want to be in a D-Group, your first step is joining a Sunday School Class or Small Group. If you would like more information, please get in touch with Pastor Luke Henry.
