The 1015 - Share the Faith - Mother's Day 2026

Mon, 11 May 2026 10:56:24 -0600

On this day we honor mothers, we’re reminded that spiritual parenting is the calling of every believer—to receive a living faith and intentionally pass it on through prayer, discipleship, and example. With confidence that God’s Word always accomplishes His purpose, we pray that the same faith of those who came before us would remain strong in us and continue through us for generations to come.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Celebrates

Mon, 04 May 2026 08:45:32 -0600

God designed the church so that every believer is needed, and when we commit, show up, and use our gifts to love and serve one another, the whole body of Christ becomes stronger.

The 1015 - Genesis, Sin, and Suffering

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 08:45:53 -0600

Sin doesn’t take long to show its power. After leaving the Garden, Adam and Eve carry sin with them, and it quickly takes root in the generations that follow. In Genesis 4–5, what begins as disobedience turns into violence, suffering, and death within the first family, revealing just how deeply broken the world has become. And yet, even here, God has not abandoned His purposes, continuing to work in the midst of the brokenness.

The 1015 - Work the Harvest

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 08:56:01 -0600

This Sunday, we wrap up Spring Thing 2026 by focusing on what it means to work the harvest—living out our calling to reach people who don’t yet know Jesus. Through the story of Andrew, we’ll see how God can use one simple act of obedience to create a life-changing ripple effect. Together, we’ll be challenged to identify “our one” and take practical steps to love, invite, and point them to Christ. Join us as we step into the mission—knowing we don’t go alone, because Jesus is with us every step of the way.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Loves the Church

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 12:01:51 -0600

The Church isn’t just a place we go—it’s who we are, the people Christ purchased with His blood, His bride, and the pillar of truth in the world. Many of us misunderstand what the Church is, underestimate our role, or have been hurt along the way. Yet Scripture shows that to oppose or disregard the Church is to oppose Christ Himself. Our hope is that every believer will awaken to the Church’s value and actively participate in what God is doing in His people. Ultimately, the Church matters—and our love and participation reflect our love for Jesus.

The 1015 - Easter 2026 - Loving God

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 09:15:01 -0600

Many of us think God wants us to follow rules and regulations as the way to relate to Him. But that’s never what He intended. From the very beginning, God hasn’t been after outward performance—He’s been after our hearts. He desires a real relationship with us, not just our obedience. On Easter, we’re reminded that through Jesus's life, death, and resurrection, everything needed for that relationship has already been accomplished. Not by our effort, but by His. Because of the blood of Christ, we’re not just forgiven—we’re invited. Invited to know God, and to be fully known by Him.

The 1015 - Genesis and Sin

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 08:42:31 -0600

How does the story of sin entering the world reveal both humanity’s failure and God’s plan for redemption from the very beginning? Sin entered through human rebellion, fracturing God’s good creation and our relationships. Yet even in brokenness, God’s plan for redemption was already set in motion, and His promise of restoration through Christ shapes the entire story of Scripture.

The 1015 - Genesis and Human Sexuality

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 09:21:08 -0600

How does God intend intimacy to reflect covenantal love, unity, and faithfulness, and how can that guide our relationships? From the beginning, God designed intimacy to unite two lives in faithful covenant. When we see it through His design, it becomes more than desire—it becomes a reflection of His goodness and a guide for healthy relationships.

The 1015 - Genesis and Gender

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 08:34:08 -0600

How does God’s design for male and female reveal His relational nature, and what does that mean for relationships today? Male and female were created to reflect God’s relational nature and complement one another in ways that honor Him. Though confusion and cultural messages can distort this design, Genesis provides clarity about God’s intentions for relationship, purpose, and mutual care.

The 1015 - Genesis, Work, and Rest

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 08:41:05 -0700

How does God’s design for work and rest give our lives purpose and shape the way we live? From the beginning, work was part of God’s good design—not a curse or an afterthought. He created us to steward His world, to create, care, and contribute in ways that reflect His glory, giving our lives meaning and direction. Yet God didn’t create us only to work—He also modeled rest. By building rhythms of rest into creation, God reminds us that our value isn’t found in what we produce, but in who we are in Him. Embracing His design for both work and rest leads to a life of purpose, balance, and trust in the God who provides.

The 1015 - Genesis and Human Dignity

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 08:53:24 -0700

What does it mean that every person bears God’s image, and how should that shape the way we see ourselves and others? Every person reflects God’s image and bears intrinsic value, dignity, and purpose. Too often, we measure worth by performance or comparison, but Genesis reminds us that our identity comes from God alone, and we are called to live as His image-bearers in families, workplaces, and communities.

The 1015 - Genesis and Science Part 2

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 09:11:55 -0700

What does the order and goodness of creation tell us about the world we observe, and how does faith help us make sense of it? Genesis invites us to see the world not as random or chaotic, but as intentionally ordered and declared good by God. That order makes exploration possible and meaningful—science becomes an act of discovery, not competition with faith. When John 1 echoes “in the beginning,” it reminds us that creation is not only structured, but personal, rooted in the Word through whom all things were made. Together, Scripture and observation lead us toward wonder, humility, and trust in the God who brings order out of chaos and purpose out of creation.

The 1015 - Genesis and Science Part 1

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 08:33:34 -0700

What can the story of creation teach us about exploring the natural world with wonder, and how does faith fit alongside what we observe? The story of creation invites us to look at the natural world with awe and curiosity, not fear or skepticism. Science and faith aren’t enemies—both point us to God’s wisdom and creativity, and Genesis gives us a framework for understanding the world while keeping God at the center.

The 1015 - Genesis and Truth

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 09:01:21 -0700

How can one sentence—“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth”—reveal that God exists, is eternal, and rules over all things? He placed humanity to reflect His image and care for creation, but we chose to reject His kingship and make ourselves rulers, which brought brokenness and death. Jesus is the true King who offers redemption and invites us to live under His rule.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Celebrates

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 09:04:55 -0700

The kind of church that honors God praises God for what He's done and is doing.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Serves and Goes

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 08:46:24 -0700

The kind of church that honors God is the kind of church that selflessly serves others and boldly proclaims the Gospel.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Gives Generously

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 08:33:42 -0700

The kind of church that honors God is the kind of church that gives generously.

The 1015 - The Kind of Church That...Gathers

Mon, 05 Jan 2026 08:46:14 -0700

The early church devoted themselves to gathering together—learning God’s Word, sharing life in fellowship, praying, worshiping, and supporting one another. Their consistent presence, encouragement, and unity created a vibrant community that spread the gospel. This week, we’ll explore what it means for us to follow their example today.

The 1015 - Ask Anything

Mon, 29 Dec 2025 08:48:50 -0700

Pastors Cody Petersen and John Mulholland respond to questions asked by the church body- live and unscripted.

The 1015 - God Is For Us

Fri, 26 Dec 2025 12:50:45 -0700

In the birth of Jesus, we see once and for all that God is for us—not against us.

The 1015 - God Dwells With Us

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 08:42:18 -0700

Jesus’ birth is not just God visiting—it’s God dwelling with His people.

The 1015 - God Comes in Weakness

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 08:39:54 -0700

The God who holds all power chose to come in humility so we could be lifted up.

The 1015 - God Keeps His Promises

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 08:57:13 -0700

From the beginning, God has promised to come near—and He always keeps His promises.

The 1015 - Disciples of the Gospel

Mon, 01 Dec 2025 09:29:35 -0700

In Galatians 6:11–18, Paul finishes his letter by pointing out the difference between those teaching a misleading message and the true way of following Jesus. Looking at the confusion in the Galatian churches, he explains what it really means to be a follower of Christ.

The 1015 - Living a For-Us Gospel

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 09:10:41 -0700

Paul continues his teaching on the fruit of the Spirit by showing that Spirit-formed character is not merely personal—it is deeply communal. The fruit of the Spirit is not just for “me.” It is for “us.” The Spirit frees us from self-focus so we can live out the gospel in a community marked by love, humility, generosity, and persistent goodness.

The 1015 - The Fruit of the Gospel

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 09:08:55 -0700

When we follow the Spirit, we are freed from the control of our sinful desires, and the fruit of our lives shows who is truly leading us. Because those who belong to Christ have crucified their sinful nature on His cross, we are empowered to live in freedom, love, and obedience to God.

The 1015 - Fall Fling Sunday

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 11:10:57 -0700

Each year, Summit Christian College hosts an event for Middle School and High School students. This year the event is being hosted at the WestWay building. Join us this Sunday as we welcome in over a hundred students from the surrounding area! The theme for the weekend is More Than I. Worship will be led by The Navigators from University of Wyoming. Our guest speaker is Adam Coop from Whitewater Christian Church.

The 1015 - #intergenerational

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 09:04:10 -0700

On Dedication Sunday, we celebrate families committing to raise their children to know Jesus and are reminded that God calls all generations to join in making disciples together.

The 1015 - Set Free by the Gospel

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 08:57:06 -0600

The gospel doesn’t free us to chase our own desires but to love and serve others through Christ. Set Free by the Gospel calls us to use our freedom not for self, but for love — the true mark of a life transformed by grace.

The 1015 - Freed by the Gospel

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 08:35:33 -0600

Paul calls the Galatians to reject slavery and live as free heirs of God’s promise in Christ.

The 1015 -

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 09:29:00 -0600

Paul encourages the Galatians—and us today—to choose the freedom and life God offers through Jesus, instead of getting caught up in empty rules or expectations.

The 1015 - Children of the Gospel

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 08:44:35 -0600

We'll be talking about what it means to be a child of God.

The 1015 - Restoration

Mon, 29 Sep 2025 08:59:21 -0600

Jesus restores who we are, reconciles who we relate to, and revives how we live—bringing true life, satisfaction, and purpose.

The 1015 - Salvation

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 11:02:48 -0600

Jesus came to rescue us and restore the relationship we were created for.

The 1015 - Separation

Mon, 15 Sep 2025 08:32:08 -0600

Sin broke the relationship between God and humanity, ourselves, others, and creation.

The 1015 - Creation

Mon, 08 Sep 2025 09:20:03 -0600

God intentionally created the world and us, and we are made in His image.

The 1015 - Welcome to the BIG Story

Tue, 02 Sep 2025 14:28:06 -0600

This message introduces a new sermon series called The Big Story, where the whole church will walk through God’s story of redemption together, Creation, Separation, Salvation, and Restoration. It shows that we were created with value and purpose and that sin separates us from God, Jesus’ sacrifice brings salvation, and that restoration is the lifelong process of God making us new.

The 1015 - Guarded for the Gospel

Mon, 25 Aug 2025 09:28:30 -0600

Before Jesus, the law acted like a guardrail. It showed us right from wrong, kept us in line, and reminded us of the consequences when we messed up. But it couldn’t change our hearts. The law’s whole purpose was to point us to Jesus — the only One who can save us. Now that He’s come, we don’t follow God out of fear or for rewards, but out of love and gratitude. In Him, we find real freedom.

The 1015 - The Promise of the Gospel

Mon, 18 Aug 2025 15:36:21 -0600

Have you ever wondered if you’re still “good with God” when you don’t measure up? Galatians 3:15–22 reminds us that God’s promise of salvation came long before the rules—and it’s never been based on our performance. The Law has a purpose, but it was never meant to replace the promise. The good news? God keeps His promises, and His promise is fulfilled in Jesus. Come discover the freedom that only Christ can give.

The 1015 - The Hope of the Gospel

Mon, 11 Aug 2025 09:07:33 -0600

Have you ever felt like you’re not doing enough to be right with God? Galatians 3:1–14 reminds us that both our salvation and our growth come from Christ alone—not from trying harder. Paul shows us that the Holy Spirit is a gift, not a reward, and that depending on our own efforts only leads to frustration and burnout. The good news? Jesus took on the curse we deserved so we could live in the blessing of faith. Come find freedom from self-effort and hope in the gospel that truly saves.

The 1015 - The Truth of the Gospel

Mon, 04 Aug 2025 08:47:27 -0600

In Galatians 2, Paul confronts Peter—not because Peter preached a false gospel, but because he wasn’t living in line with the gospel. By separating himself from Gentile believers, Peter sent the wrong message: that obedience to the law was still necessary for acceptance with God. Paul uses this moment to make the gospel crystal clear—we are made right with God (justified) by faith in Christ alone, not by anything we do. And when our actions contradict that truth, we must correct them—because our lives preach, even when our mouths don’t.

The 1015 - The Gospel: Our CORE Objective

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 10:01:13 -0600

In Galatians 1:11–2:10, Paul defends the gospel he received from Jesus—a message confirmed by the apostles and driving his mission to the Gentiles. Like Paul, NorthWest Haiti Christian Mission continues to follow God’s lead with the same core objective: to love God, love our neighbors, and bring others to Jesus.

The 1015 - No Other Gospel

Mon, 21 Jul 2025 08:15:53 -0600

There is only one true gospel- non-negotiable, given by God, and worth defending with unwavering allegiance to Christ over the approval of people.

The 1015 - Rescued by the Gospel

Mon, 14 Jul 2025 09:09:17 -0600

The gospel is God’s rescue plan—by grace, through Jesus, to bring us peace. Paul warns the Galatians that turning to any other message is not just a mistake—it’s abandoning the only gospel that saves.

The 1015 - Welcome to Galatia!

Mon, 07 Jul 2025 08:34:14 -0600

This Sunday we begin our new series, Unshackled: A Study Through Galatians by exploring the background of Paul’s letter—who he’s writing to, why it matters, and what’s at stake. Then, we’ll read the entire letter aloud, allowing the urgency and clarity of Paul’s words to set the tone. As we focus on Galatians 1:3–5, we’ll see that the gospel isn’t just the starting point of faith—it’s everything. Christ gave Himself to rescue us. The only question is: are we living free, or still holding on to chains He already broke?

The 1015 - Send Us

Mon, 30 Jun 2025 08:40:13 -0600

The final prayer in this series is the ultimate act of surrender to God. Asking God to “Send us” reverses the typical requests that we pray to God. Instead of asking Him to do what we want, we are telling him that we will do as He wants. We often do not know where God will lead us when we pray this prayer. Its answer will host challenges and sufferings, but also immense joy. Jesus told the church to go make disciples of all nations. This is an individual calling to YOU, and a collective calling to US.

The 1015 - Break Us

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 08:47:46 -0600

Jesus’ dangerous prayer in the garden, “Not my will, but Yours be done,” was a prayer of determined surrender, trust, and courage. It’s a dangerous prayer that calls us to let go and find strength for the journey ahead.

The 1015 - Search Us

Mon, 16 Jun 2025 08:59:47 -0600

When we ask God to search us, we're courageously inviting God to search and expose what’s truly in our hearts—our fears, our sins, our self-deceptions—not to shame us, but to transform us. It’s a dangerous prayer of humility and surrender that says: 'God, show me what’s real, test me to reveal it, confront me with what offends you, and lead me in your way—because I trust your truth more than my own perception."

The 1015 - The Spirit For All

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 14:04:46 -0600

The Holy Spirit was never meant for a select few. At Pentecost, He filled believers and empowered them to proclaim the gospel in every language to every nation. This is the birth of the Church—unified by the Spirit, fueled by the mission, and sent to the world.

The 1015 - The Spirit Who Assures

Mon, 02 Jun 2025 09:27:45 -0600

How do you know you belong to God? What does it really mean to be part of God’s family? How does the Holy Spirit change the way we see ourselves—and each other?

This week, we continue our series on the Holy Spirit by looking at Romans 8:15–17. The Spirit doesn’t lead us into fear—He leads us into family. He confirms our identity as God’s children and unites us as co-heirs with Christ.

In a world that tries to define us by everything else, the Spirit reminds us who we truly are—and who we belong to.

We’re also excited to welcome Aaron and Tricia Gorsuch, our missions partners from American Indian Christian Mission, who will be sharing the message with us this Sunday. Aaron and Tricia serve alongside Native communities, bringing the hope of Jesus and supporting spiritual growth. Their story is a powerful reminder that the Spirit who assures us is at work in every corner of the world, drawing people into God’s family.

Come discover what it means to live as Spirit-assured sons and daughters of God: bold, secure, and united in love.

You’re not alone. You’re not forgotten. You’re family.

The 1015 - The Spirit Who Empowers

Mon, 26 May 2025 09:02:43 -0600

We all want to live differently—but how? How do we actually experience freedom from sin, not just talk about it? And what does it really mean to be led by the Spirit?

This Sunday at WestWay, we’re continuing our series on the Holy Spirit with a powerful message from Romans 8:1–14. We’ll discover that life in the Spirit isn’t just possible—it’s essential. The Spirit doesn’t just help us try harder—He empowers us to live in true freedom.

Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and reminded:

You are no longer obligated to your old life
The Spirit leads you to think differently
We don’t walk alone—we walk together, empowered

Let’s be a church that reflects Christ not just in belief, but in everyday decisions.

Let’s live Spirit-empowered lives—together.

The 1015 - The Spirit Who Reveals

Mon, 19 May 2025 08:52:35 -0600

Have you ever wished God would just make things clearer? In John 16, Jesus tells His disciples that some truths won’t make sense until later—until the Holy Spirit comes. Why? Because the Spirit doesn’t just inform us; He transforms us. He convicts us of sin, reveals what’s right, and prepares us for judgment—not to shame us, but to shape us into the likeness of Jesus. This week, we’ll talk about how the Holy Spirit leads us into truth, glorifies Jesus, and helps us discern—both personally and as a church.

The 1015 - The Spirit Who Stays

Mon, 12 May 2025 09:09:14 -0600

Jesus promised that He would not leave us as orphans—and He kept that promise through the gift of the Holy Spirit. As we begin our new series, The Spirit-Filled Life, we’re learning not just what the Holy Spirit does, but who He is: the Spirit who stays. In John 14, Jesus comforts His disciples with the truth that the Holy Spirit would not only be among them, but would live in them. This marks a fundamental shift—from God’s presence being temporary and external in the Old Testament to being permanent and internal in the New. Now, because of the cross, we are cleansed and made fit to be His dwelling place.This Spirit doesn’t come and go. He’s not a visitor. He remains.

The 1015 - Blessing Sunday

Mon, 05 May 2025 09:23:59 -0600

The world will attack our identity and who we are, but our identity is not found in this world, it’s found in being a child of God.

The 1015 - Designed to Belong

Mon, 28 Apr 2025 10:22:58 -0600

God didn’t design us to go it alone. From the very beginning, He created us for connection—with Him and with each other. That design finds its fullest expression in the church—not just as a place we go, but as a people we commit to.

The 1015 - Jesus, Our Risen Savior

Mon, 21 Apr 2025 09:21:10 -0600

On Easter Sunday, we celebrate the heart of the gospel: Jesus didn’t wait for us to clean ourselves up—He came for us while we were still sinners. His death wasn’t just a moment in history—it was the decisive act that broke sin’s power and opened the way to new life. In love, not condemnation, God sent His Son to save us. This is resurrection hope: we are fully known, fully loved, and fully invited into new life through Jesus. The only question now is—will we receive it?

The 1015 - Jesus, Our Coming King

Mon, 14 Apr 2025 09:02:36 -0600

On Sunday, we'll see Jesus enter Jerusalem, completely trusting the Father's will. We'll see the disciples obey without full understanding. We'll see the crowds praise with a shallow trust and the Pharisees reject him outright. Palm Sunday challenges us to ask, "Who do we trust, and what does this trust look like in our lives?"

The 1015 - Jesus, Our Passover Lamb

Mon, 07 Apr 2025 08:51:16 -0600

The Passover was not just an event in Israel’s history—it was a foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, the Lamb of God. Just as the blood of the lamb protected the Israelites from judgment, only the blood of Christ can cover and redeem us today. Will we trust fully in His sacrifice and live in the freedom it brings?

The 1015 - Praising the God Who Keeps Us

Mon, 31 Mar 2025 11:02:28 -0600

The God who calls us, loves us, and keeps us is worthy of our worship.

The 1015 - Defending Against False Teachers

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 09:29:15 -0600

Jude gives the church the tools needed to defend the faith against false teachers.

The 1015 - Recognizing False Teachers

Mon, 17 Mar 2025 08:16:40 -0600

False teachers are not a new problem; Scripture warns us about their presence and influence.

The 1015 - A Faith Worth Fighting For

Mon, 10 Mar 2025 08:56:15 -0600

Jude calls the church to contend for the faith in the face of ungodly influences.

The 1015 - Gives and Glorifies

Mon, 03 Mar 2025 08:49:22 -0700

The things we’re going through right now—the struggles, the setbacks, the suffering—aren’t random. Daniel 12 pulls back the curtain on the future, revealing that trials are not just obstacles; they are opportunities. Opportunities to be purified. To be cleansed. To be refined. And in the end? Glory. Resurrection. Eternal life. But here’s the question: will we face these trials with the wisdom God gives, or will we stumble through them blindly? The God who calls us to endure is the same God who equips us. Through His Word. Through His people. Through His Spirit. The world is unraveling, but God is still working. The question is—are we listening? Will we be found faithful? Will we finish well?

The 1015 - Knows and Warns

Mon, 24 Feb 2025 11:53:52 -0700

History never surprises God. Kings rise, kingdoms crumble, wars rage—and He already knows the script. Daniel 11 lays it all out in jaw-dropping detail, proving that nothing catches Him off guard. But here’s the thing: God doesn’t just know. He warns. He cares enough to put up flashing lights, telling His people, This won’t be easy. Stay awake. Stand firm. Because evil doesn’t just march through history—it presses in on you, too. And when it does, your defense isn’t fear or frantic scrambling. It’s knowing who you are. You belong to the God who sees, who saves, who strengthens His people to endure. So the real question is—when the pressure comes, will you stand?

The 1015 - Stands with Us

Mon, 17 Feb 2025 08:59:23 -0700

God is a God who hears us, draws near to us, and fights for us.

The 1015 - Shapes Us Through Scripture

Mon, 10 Feb 2025 09:15:47 -0700

Daniel’s prayer life was both prompted and shaped by Scripture. God’s response to Daniel's prayer offers hope, as He grants both immediate and long-term promises, ultimately fulfilled in Jesus.

The 1015 - Appoints the Times

Tue, 04 Feb 2025 08:25:50 -0700

God is in control of history. This week, we’ll talk about how this chapter reminds us of God’s sovereignty, His ultimate victory, and our role in His plan.

The 1015 - Going Beyond Ourselves

The 1015 - God Invites People to Meet Jesus

Mon, 23 Dec 2024 13:29:26 -0700

Mon, 09 Dec 2024 08:20:59 -0700

The 1015 - About Salvation

Mon, 01 May 2023 09:13:00 -0600

We believe the Bible teaches that salvation – the forgiveness of sins – is only by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ. Because of our sin, we are separated from God. We have no way to get back into a right relationship with God on our own. Biblically, we learn that salvation only comes from Christ; because He was crucified and killed we can be reconciled (re-joined with) God. And, it is because He rose again that we can be justified (walk newly) with Him. While God does the work, we respond. In the New Testament, we see people responding in four ways: Belief, Repentance, Baptism and Confession.

Mon, 30 Jan 2023 08:33:44 -0700

Tue, 17 Jan 2023 10:29:49 -0700

“There are people who would do great acts; but because they wait for great opportunities, life passes, and the acts of love are not done at all.

The 1015 - Gather

Mon, 09 Jan 2023 09:03:04 -0700

“…the church is God’s. It belongs to God as the one who both called it into being (called “us” to faith) and sustains it. It is not a voluntary association, composed of those who have decided to affiliate with others for self-improvement or like belief or fellowship or even service, but a gathering of those ‘called to be holy’ (Romans 1:7).”- Beverly Gaventa

The 1015 - Love

Tue, 03 Jan 2023 09:25:56 -0700
