2. You don’t need a building to worship God. For 15 years we didn’t have a building of our own. But I guarantee we did a lot of worshipping during that time. The Bible says, “The God who made the world and all things in it, since he is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made …
A few months ago, I had been reading some different scripture passages and reflecting on how unstoppable God is. We tell him he is loving and great, but I was caught off guard by those passages that just state unashamedly – our God is the biggest and baddest (“bad” in a good way), and we will shout it from the …
I think this Christmas Eve was the second time we have done a Christmas Eve service at North Side. This year, we got to have it in the new auditorium, which was good since we were near full. It was an incredible time of worship together! We had a couple of fantastic videos to watch, the choir sang four selections …
I wanted to tell you all about a great event coming North Side’s way – the Vision of You 2008 Tour stopping down in Greenwood, SC on Feb. 24 featuring Shane and Shane, Starfield, and David Nassar. The first time I heard Shane and Shane, I was blown away. I heard the beautiful words of Scripture so wonderfully accompanied by …
We’re singing the Crowder song, “O Praise Him” at North Side on Sunday and I am really excited. I’m excited because I remember the first time I heard it. I put the new Passion CD in my CD player and almost had to pull over on the side of the road. There’s something special about a song here on earth …

Epic is our worship service for 1-5 graders, and I love hearing from kids all that they …
You are not reading incorrectly. 2008 is all wrapped up. The picture above is of the whiteboard in my office. On this whiteboard is 52 weeks of big ideas for teaching at North Side designed for 2008. We spent a long time praying, studying, thinking, and talking about where North Side is spiritually and what the Bible says about those …
That’s about all I can say – wow. We helped design the building so that people would say “wow.” We wanted people to be intrigued by the outside and come inside. We wanted people to walk in and feel at home and desire to stay a while and build community. And today we saw all of that happen. But we …
The time of waiting is over! We are moving into the new worship center at North Side next Sunday, September 16! The new service times will be 8:15, 9:45, and 11:15. Please help us get the word out to all your friends, family, and neighbors. It will be an exciting next step in what God is doing at North Side. …
What a great day of worship! It was so exciting being able to worship as a family together this morning. I had a lot of people come up and ask about different songs or the videos we used, so I thought I would just post them all. Enjoy! Worship songs: My Savior Lives – New Life Worship Not to Us …
