Westside Family Church Can I Trust The Bible? 2026.04.28 How do I know God Hears My Prayer s Pastor Jonathan Hansen   Notes:  All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 The Best-Seller We’ve Never Read. The Bible is the quiet backbone of Western civilization. It literally formed the culture we are living in. And most of us have no idea. Whether we realize it or not we are living in a world that has been shaped and formed by the Bible. Partly because it is the most widely read and distributed book in the history of the world…It’s had a big influence! And partly because the ideas contained in the Bible are from God and they are actually the best ideas for how humans can flourish and function in the world. Notes:  1. Supernatural Unity + Fulfilled Prophecy “All Scripture is God-breathed,” 2 Timothy 3:16 When you reall...

Westside Family Church Why Is Jesus The Only Way Pastor Jonathan Hansen (Triish's last Sunday in worship will be Sunday, April 26, 2026.---She is moving to Dallas, TX!) Notes:  1 Peter 3:15 In your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for he hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect When we are dealing with life or death consequences, persuasion becomes an act of love. Eventually the tornados of life and death and suffering, and t ragedy will come our way, and when it does, it will hit like a freight train. And then we start to ask the big questions… What are the apologetics? 1. Why are we here? 2. How did this whole thing happen? 3. What happens after we die? 4. How do I make sense of pain and suffering? 5. What's the purpose of my life? These questions are so important because if we understand the BEGINNING of the story (where we came from) and the END of the story (where we are going)...

  Pastor Mark Clark Does God Really Exist? Examining the Evidence for Faith In a world filled with skepticism about faith and Christianity, many people wonder whether belief in God is rational or simply wishful thinking. Growing up in a household that was adamantly opposed to Christianity, this question became deeply personal. The journey from skepticism to faith wasn't based on blind belief, but on examining evidence that pointed toward the existence of God. Key Verses Romans 2:14-15 Genesis 1:1 Everyone Has a Faith Position Whether you realize it or not, everyone who walks through life has a faith position about what happens after death. Even those who claim to be purely rational and evidence-based hold beliefs about metaphysical realities they cannot prove. Consider this scenario: When someone dies after suffering, we often say "at least they're not suffering anymore." But how do we know that? If you believe that death simply means non-existence, that's actuall...

Westside Family Church Easter 2026: Death Defeated Hope Restored - Will You Believe?  Pastor Jonathan Hansen Matthew 27:50-54 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit. And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split. The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many. When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!” Matthew 28:1-6 Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was ...

Matthew 21:5 Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!
