Leadership 101
We run several discipleship ministries here at NV – youth, NYA, CG’s, and Bible studies – and one of the consistent challenges we run into is having enough volunteer leaders to effectively run these ministries. To address that need, we have designed a year-long course for anyone who has interest in leadership development, with the eventual goal of serving as a leader in one of these ministries.
The course is broken down into three trimesters, starting September 2022 and finishing at the end of May 2023. We will meet on Sundays from 11am – 1230pm and cover theology, bible study methodology, discipleship strategy and group dynamics.
The goal for this class is that by the end of the year, you will have all the necessary skills to step into leadership!
Faith, Sexuality, and Gender Course
At Northview, we want to hold to the Truth of our Biblical convictions while exhibiting heaps of Grace towards all people. This course, by Dr. Preston Sprinkle and his team at The Center for Faith, Sexuality and Gender, is designed to help us as Christians engage LGBTQ related questions through thoughtful written material, small group discussions, and high quality videos. Our Care Pastor, Thaleia Sawatzky will teach each week through a variety of the sticky questions brought up in the course material.
The readings for this course include both Preston Sprinkle’s “Grace & Truth” 1.0 and 2.0. If you are considering this course, register as soon as possible as space is limited. Registration is $25, which covers coffee, tea and both of the Grace & Truth books (books are yours to keep after the course).
Our Fall Session is full. Next session will run Spring 2023.

Baptism
Our Baptism class is a one-time evening class where we go over the meaning of baptism, your testimony, and next the steps to take after your baptism. Those who take the class and decide to be baptized will be baptized at the next baptism service.
Membership
Membership gives believers a sense of belonging. By becoming a member, you accept responsibility for a group of fellow believers and you yourself become accountable to mature brothers and sisters in Christ.
Pre-Marriage
In this class, we hope to equip you with practical teaching and advice to set you up for a successful marriage. Over three sessions, we will discuss marriage, sex, finances, communication, parents/parents-in-law, and answer any questions you might have!
