From the series, "Walking with Jesus" - Part 1. We begin Holy Week watching Jesus enter Jerusalem. When he gets there he immediately addresses the problem of fruitless and empty religion. And that message is just as relevant today, as ever.

We all get frustrated when certain things in our lives seem to be going too slowly. As much as we'd like to speed things along, the real power is in patience.

What you do today matters, but perhaps in a different way than you think. It isn't your productivity or efficiency that makes you important. Rather, it's about who you are, expressed in love.

God speaks to us powerfully through His word, but that’s not how many of us experience reading the Bible. Lectio Divina is a practice that helps us to slow down and receive the word of God into our heads and also our hearts.

It's easy for us to focus on our challenges, but one thing I think we can learn in uncertain times is that God is doing more than meets the eye.

Have you ever felt like you need to do more while simultaneously feeling like you have the capacity to do less? That's been common for many of us this year. And it's OK.

It’s been 1 year since the pandemic closed down in-person services at Westside Church! This is a good time for us to reflect and look for God’s presence in all the ups and downs of this crazy season! We'll hear stories from a bunch of different voices, share ministry highlights, and impactful moments from this past year. *This is the audio of our entire online service.

We live in a culture that is very critical but we have a choice: Do we want to stick with the status quo or buck the trend? Your answer will have a profound impact on how you experience life!

Jesus' teachings can sometimes be so outrageous. And maybe that's the point. What are we supposed to do with some of Jesus' most difficult commands?

From the series, "ESCAPE" - Part 4. Pain makes us selfish. It forces us to think about ourselves and our needs. Honestly, we want others to help us out. Mercy helps us to see, that we’re not the only ones in pain and everyone needs some compassion.
