Equipping Classes

At Canyon View, we believe we are called by Jesus to be his apprentices. As his apprentices, we are asked to learn Jesus's teachings and do as he did. The classes below are designed for you to learn his teachings and do as he did. Choose one to deepen your apprenticeship!

FALL 2026 EQUIPPING CLASSES

BeWell Peer Coaching

You don't need a counseling degree to help someone take their next step. You just need to be trained to listen well.

Peer Coaching Training equips you to walk alongside others through one-on-one conversations rooted in biblical principles. You'll learn how to ask good questions, offer real encouragement, and hold space for someone as they work through a challenge or pursue a goal. This isn't about having all the answers. It's about being present and trained to guide well.

Over the course of the training, you'll build the skills to offer accountability without judgment and guidance without control, so the people you coach leave conversations feeling supported and equipped for what's next.
If you've got a listening ear and a heart for people, this training will give you the tools to put that to good use.

Practicing The Way Course

Following Jesus is more than showing up on Sunday. It's a way of life, and this course will help you build it.
Over eight sessions, you'll dig into what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in a busy, distracted world. Each session mixes teaching, guided discussion, and hands-on practices you can start using right away, things like building a daily rhythm with God, naming what's forming you, and crafting a personal Rule of Life.

This isn't a lecture series. You'll do the work alongside a group, wrestling with real questions about habits, pain, sin, and healing, and walking away with practical tools for a lasting relationship with Jesus.

Every session comes with a free Companion Guide to help you reflect and go deeper between meetings.

Practicing The Way Focus Sessions

Already read the book or been through the Practicing the Way Course? These sessions let you go deeper into one specific practice, with a group of others doing the same.

This fall, choose from one of three focus areas: Prayer, Scripture, or Sabbath. Each one takes what you learned in the Course and turns it into a real, lasting rhythm.

Prayer 
will help you build prayer into a daily habit instead of something you only reach for in a crisis.

Scripture will teach you to read the Bible for formation, not just information, so it starts shaping you instead of just informing you.

Sabbath will help you carve out real rest in your week, even if you've never tried it before.

Alpha PreMarriage

Getting married soon? The excitement is real, but a strong marriage takes more than love. It takes a foundation.

Alpha Pre-Marriage is for couples who are dating or engaged and want to build that foundation together, before the wedding, not after. Over six weeks, you'll work through the values, habits, and communication skills that hold a marriage together for the long haul, guided by principles that apply to every relationship, not just the honeymoon phase.

Each session doubles as a date night. You'll leave with practical tools and a deeper connection, not homework.
Say "I do" knowing you've already done the work to make it last.
