Coming Again: What Do You Need Most?
It's Christmas at Southview! Pastor Nathan Wakefield begins our Christmas sermon series: Coming Again. This week we look to Micah and Isaiah to learn that Messiah is the only one who can fix the world's problems. Better leaders, good deeds, charitable programs, and anything else besides Messiah will never solve the problems. We need Messiah. Video of the worship service is available beginning Sunday at 9:30 AM at https://southviewbaptist.org/live.
