What if you could find a church that was different?  What if you could find a church that had those qualities we all need in life:  encouragement, joy, and compassion?  What if you could find a church that was just the right size- not too big where you are little more than a number, and not too small where there is not much happening?  Well, the good news is that Northside Baptist is a family of faith just like that!

You will enjoy the people, be inspired by the music, and the messages will lead you to laugh and think.  Here, faith is practical and interacts with the community and the world.

We are not a perfect people, but that may make us just right for most folks.  Drop in for a visit and you may discover the difference that an encouraging, joyful, and compassionate church can make!

Unleash the Healing Power of Forgiveness
As imperfect people living in an imperfect world, we eventually confront in nearly every relationship the need to extend or receive forgiveness. But when the wounds run deep, forgiveness doesn’t come easy.

This eye-opening study deals with the difficult questions of forgiveness, including How can I forgive when the pain is so great? Does forgiving mean I have to forget the past? and What if I choose not to forgive? As you dig into what the Bible says on this vital topic, you’ll encounter the depths of God’s own mercy and discover how choosing forgiveness can free you from a painful past and propel you toward being all that God intends you to be.

Feeling Alone?

In You Are Never Alone, Max will help you:

Realize that Jesus is walking with you and lifting you out of your storms.
Dwell in the grace of the cross, the miracle of the empty tomb, and the assurance of restoration power.
Believe that God is your ever-present source of help.
Recognize that you are never without hope or strength because you are never, ever, alone.

Characters:  A Walk Through the Bible Through the Lives of its People

The Bible is the story of God working in the lives of people through history.  Join the pastor on Wednesday nights after dinner starting Sept. 29th for a journey that will introduce you to the 42 most significant people in the Bible.  We’ll learn from their choices and actions so we can live more faithful and positive lives today.  The first six sessions will include a look at the Patriarchs:  Adam & Eve, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph.  Those who stick with this study will travel through the whole Bible in a year.

We would encourage everyone to preregister for the program of choice so materials can be ordered and we can be ready for you!
