About WestWay:
Expand
Our mission is simple: we want to proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord. We're growing in three ways: our unity, our purpose and our love. This happens because of the power of the Holy Spirit. God is glorified. Lives are changed. People grow in their relationships with God and with others. We're glad you're here!

What To Expect:

We're currently in Phase 3 of WestWay's "re-gathering" plan. This means we are phasing in areas of ministry. Our Nursery, Wee-Ones (toddlers), and Noah's Park (pre-k & kindergarten), and elementary age (grades 1-5) areas are open on Sunday mornings. Small groups and Sunday school have begun to meet again. Learn more below.

Summary:
How does the Bible “work”? What is it’s purpose? Where did it come from? How did we get it? Can we trust it? What does it mean for me? Join us as we wrestle with these (and other) questions as we survey the entire Bible together.

This week we'll be talking about the trustworthiness of the Bible.
Today, we'll be talking about 4 key aspects of determining the reliability of an ancient document and how the Bible compares to other documents of its time.
1- The difference between autographs and manuscripts.
2- The value of quantity.
3- Why the age of manuscripts matters.
4- What about errors and mistakes?

Read and talk about Psalm 19:7-11.

1- What words are used to describe God's Word? What do they tell us about God?

2- What do these verses tell us about the purpose of God's Word? What do they tell us about God's desire for man?

3- How have you seen the "instructions of God's Word" revive your soul or the souls of others?

4- "The commandments of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart." How have you seen this in your life and/or the lives of others?

5- "The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight for living." Talk about a time when a command of God gave you insight for living.

6- Read Psalm 19:11.
How can God's Word serve as a warning? How has the Word of God kept you out of trouble? What reward can we gain by keeping God's word? What rewards have you experienced as a result of your obedience?

The State of Theology

What do Americans think about Jesus Christ, the Bible, truth, and ethics? Ligonier Ministries’ State of Theology survey provides insights. Every two years, we take the theological temperature of the United States to help Christians better understand today’s culture and equip the church with better insights for discipleship.
You can participate in the survey...this will give us insight into what's happening in our own church body.
