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!

We're currently in Phase 3 of WestWay's "re-gathering" plan. 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 for adults have begun to meet again. Learn more below.

Series Overview and Additional Resources

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.

Summary:
Since the beginning, God has invited people to join Him in brining order to chaos. We are to live in ways that demonstrate the realities of His Kingdom and the blessings that flow from relationship and harmony with Him. This work is not reserved for an elite; it's the mission and purpose of all who identify with and love Jesus.

This week, we'll be talking about How the Bible Works to Give us a Mission; we'll be reading and discussing Matthew 28:18-20 and 2 Corinthians 5:17-20.

A church is on mission with Christ in our world to carry out the Father's redemptive purposes. We have a very specific mission and a very specific purpose (Matt 28:18-20, 2 Cor 5:17- 20). If you are a Christian and this is your church home, you are here to participate in God's redemptive mission.

Read and discuss Matthew 28:18-20.
- Why does Jesus begin his statement with "I have been given all..."
- What does "make disciples" mean?"

How are you doing personally at "making disciples"? How is WestWay doing? Be specific.

Read and discuss 2 Corinthians 5:17-20.
- What does the word "reconciliation" mean in this context?
- What does it mean to be "an ambassador for Christ"?

How are you doing personally at being Christ's ambassador? How is WestWay doing? Be specific.

For Discussion:

Because God builds the body to match the assignment, think about the people God has added to WestWay over the past 18 months. Think about their age, life stage, etc. Spend time in prayer asking God to reveal the assignment God has for us in Scottsbluff. Discuss and write down what you sense God is saying.


Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. Make two lists:
Love is...



Love is not...



Take time to pray, asking God to reveal the truth to you about your fellowship (love relationship) with Him and your Christian brothers and sisters.

- What do you sense God is saying about your fellowship with other Christians?

- What do you sense God is saying about your fellowship with God?

- Why do you think God has added you to your present church body?

- What do you do in your church that most effectively helps build up the body of Christ?

- Where can you see signs of the work God is doing and how He’s asking you to participate?

- How is God calling you to remind others that they are made in His image?
