Step In

Southside Church

At Southside Church, we believe the abundant life is not just something we hope for someday—it’s something we step into together right now. We gather on Sundays, in small groups, and through this podcast to lean into that life together. Each week we share a sermon, but there’s always more to say. Step In is our way of continuing the conversation and spurring one another on throughout the week.
