Westside Podcast
This is the official weekly podcast of Westside Community Church in Beaverton, Oregon. We’re made up of a variety of people who like to keep it real, don’t take themselves too seriously and who want to get the most out of life. At Westside, we welcome people from all walks of life – in fact, there are NO PERFECT PEOPLE ALLOWED! We strive to be a "safe place to investigate faith" so people can come as they are and be themselves while they explore who Jesus is, find friends and make a difference.
We post content here that is practical, helpful, and relevant to real life. We hope you'll find the inspiration, motivation and help to grow.

Selfless Love: Put WE First and End the Fight in Marriage | Marriage Monthly
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Romance is great, but it’s not what keeps a marriage strong. In this Love Month episode, we’re shifting the focus from “be romantic” to “be selfless”—because most marriages don’t fall apart from incompatibility… they fall apart from selfishness. If you’ve felt off-track lately, overwhelmed, or stuck in tension, this episode is a jolt back on track.
