At River West Church, we desire to grow in faith and learn how to apply it to everyday life. Classes are a great way to do just that. We offer a variety of classes throughout the year. To find out when classes are offered, go to the Classes Calendar.

RIVER WEST CORE CLASSES provide a foundation for who we are as a church, and our role as members of the church body. It is our hope that all River Westers will attend Core Classes.

• Grace Based Parenting
  We believe there’s a biblical philosophy of parenting found in Scriptures and seen in the way that God deals with us–through Grace. In this series of classes, we’ll look at parenting that focuses on the heart of the child and keeps the end result in mind. For more information, contact Pastor Mike Self at .
