Westcity Church

Love God | Love People | Follow Jesus

WE ARE A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ALL ABOUT JESUS

(Well, what did you expect from a church?)

We are old people and young, artists, people with disabilities, lawyers and plumbers, activists and accountants who have been captured by, and caught up in God’s Dream for the world and God’s purpose for our lives, that we see revealed in Jesus.

Maybe we are a church for those who don’t like ‘church’. A church for those who don’t want to play religious games or be entertained but on a good day, desire to live the love that God has shown us. HERE you can find out more on our vision, pilgrimage together, values, beliefs, practices and team. Also listen to our podcast The Westcity Way (episode 442, for the message given by Kelley Chisholm on Feb 4, 2024). This is a great summary on who we are as a church and what we are about – The Way of Grace.

CURRENT SERMON SERIES

LANDSCAPES OF THE BIBLEHow Creation Speaks of the Creator

From the opening pages of Genesis to the climactic vision of Revelation, the Bible tells a unified story in which landscape is never just background scenery — it is a stage loaded with meaning, movement, and theology.

In the ancient world, including the cultures of the Near East, geography was often symbolic. Mountains, rivers, seas, trees, and cities were not only physical realities but spiritual signposts. They shaped the worldview and cosmology of the people, reflecting their understanding of the gods, creation, chaos, life, death, and destiny.

The biblical writers, immersed in this cultural setting, tell God’s story through these same landscapes — but they reshape the symbols to reveal the character of Yahweh, the one true God. As we journey through six key biblical landscapes in this series, we’ll discover how each one carries a profound message about God’s presence, power, and purposes.

Key Scriptures

The Mountain: Genesis 2:10-14, Exodus 19, Psalm 121, Matthew 17:1-9, Revelation 21:10

The Tree of Life: Genesis 2:9, Proverbs 3:18, John 15:1-5, Revelation 22:1-2

The Wilderness: Exodus 16-17, Deuteronomy 8, Matthew 4:1-11, Hebrews 3-4

The Sea and Chaotic Waters: Genesis 1:2, Exodus 14, Psalm 77:16-20, Mark 4:35-41, Revelation 21:1

The River of Life: Genesis 2:10, Ezekiel 47:1-12, John 7:37-39, Revelation 22:1-2

The City: Genesis 11, Psalm 46, Hebrews 11:10, Revelation 21-22

CHILDREN’S CHURCH

10am Children’s Program at Nanson Street

Godly Play is a great opportunity for children of all ages to listen, wonder and respond. We listen to the story, stop and wonder about the questions, then respond by doing our own work or play – each child can do their work differently.

SUNDAY YOUTH

10am Youth Program at Nanson Street

Sunday Youth (for high school age) happens during our weekend church service. It focuses on a facilitated discussion with a member of the teaching team or a specially selected church community member, around our church theology and how it relates to youth and culture. And we have fun!
