Women teaching and equipping other women.
Whether you’ve never been to church before, you attend Northview regularly, or you attend another church on the weekends–you are welcome here! Join us at one of our Bible studies. We offer a variety of weekly study opportunities, with occasional conferences and retreats to supplement the regular study of the Bible. All of our studies are expositional (working through a book of the Bible or section of a book sequentially) and inductive (asking a series of questions which help us observe, interpret, and apply the Biblical text).
Women's Bible Studies
Our Bible Studies take place from Fall to Spring each year.
Theology, Life & Culture Classes
These courses are a chance for our Pastors to address life and culture topics like, “How does the gospel shape our view of work or parenting? How do we process biblical and cultural views on sexuality and gender? What does a godly marriage look like?”All Wednesday evening sessions are co-ed, and classes are available for those in Grades 9 and up! There are also some women’s only options! See the different courses listed below.
Registration opens Feb 27!

FAQs
Where do I get a copy of the workbook?
- Workbooks will be available the first day of study if you are attending in person! If you are attending online, please stop by the church office anytime after March 20 to pick up your study. Office hours are M-F 8:30-4:30.
- If you live outside of the Fraser Valley AND would like a hard copy of the workbook, please contact [email protected] and we can arrange a mailing option (please let us know ASAP so we can get the materials to you on time!).
Can I join a Bible Study online?
- All of our studies offer an online option through Zoom. To select this option, simply indicate on your registration if you will be attending in person or online. The Zoom groups typically follow the same format as the in person study (small group discussions, large group teaching time, small group prayer). Typically, you will be attending the large group teaching time with everyone else who is at the church in person! More information will be provided with your registration email and closer to the first day of study.
- For our Northview studies, hard copies of the workbook are available for pick up or mail out upon request.
- For our Precept studies, if you are unable to come to the church, we request you purchase it directly from Precept Canada. This is so that you will get them on time and don’t have to pay an extra cost on shipping. Please connect with [email protected] or [email protected] to select the appropriate discount option on registration.
Can I do the study on my own?
- We highly recommend you join us for our study as a group, but we understand that circumstances don’t always allow it! You are more than welcome to purchase a study and work through the material on your own! Hard copies of all of our studies are available at the church office for a small fee!
- For our Northview curriculum studies, we post all of our teaching videos and handouts on our website here (womens) for our current studies and here for our previous studies. If you’d like to follow along on your own with the current study and would like to receive the weekly emails, please contact [email protected]
- For our Precept studies, all our teaching videos are posted to our Youtube page here.
Will the lesson’s teaching be recorded if I miss a week?
- Each week we post the teaching videos and handouts associated with that week’s lesson. These resources are available on Thursday afternoons or Fridays here OR on our women’s Youtube page
Do you offer childcare? Where can I register?
- We offer childcare at all of our morning studies. To register your child for the semester, please do so by clicking the corresponding day here.
What does a typical Bible study morning/evening look like?
- All of our studies start out with a small group discussion time to review the homework for that week’s lesson. Then, we all meet together to listen to a large group teaching. Some studies will also meet together after the large group teaching time to pray together.
What Bible translation do you use?
- As a church, Northview uses the English Standard Version (ESV) Bible translation. All of our studies use this translation as well.
What is Inductive Bible Study?
We believe God still speaks today and that His primary and authoritative way of doing this is through His Word; all 66 books! We believe taking in Scripture is a necessary part of the growing Christians life.
We desire to GROW in knowledge that results in women who look more like Jesus. We desire to SUBMIT to His Word. We desire to KNOW God: His character and ways. We desire to KNOW Jesus: what His life, death and resurrection accomplished (the gospel!).
We use the Inductive Bible study method. This method utilizes 3 tools: #1 Observation (what does the Bible say?) #2 Interpretation (What does this mean?) #3 Application (What do I do?) Through personal daily study, participation in weekly discussion groups and the teaching that follows, we strive to grasp God’s Word at a deeper and more impactful level.
