SERVE | Week Five | Ephesians 4:1-16

Pursuit of Righteousness | Matthew 6:33

We don’t drift into righteousness. We pursue it. What fills your thoughts when you wake up and what lingers before you sleep reveals what your life revolves around. Jesus calls us to seek His Kingdom first, to hunger and thirst for what truly satisfies. When righteousness becomes our pursuit, we don’t just find direction, we find fulfillment. Chase what lasts.   Invest in the mission and vision of Westside: https://westsidebaptist.org/give   FOLLOW Westside Baptist Church:  ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/westsidegainesville  ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/westsidegainesville  ► Website | https://www.westsidebaptist.org

SERVE | Week Five | Ephesians 4:1-16

We weren’t called to spectate, we were called to build. When every believer embraces their role, the church becomes what Christ designed it to be, united in Spirit, grounded in truth, and growing in love. God has given each of us grace to serve, to strengthen one another, and to speak the truth in love so the whole body can grow in Him. Step out of passivity and step into your purpose, because every member is a minister.   Invest in the mission and vision of Westside: https://westsidebaptist.org/give   FOLLOW Westside Baptist Church:  ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/westsidegainesville  ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/westsidegainesville  ► Website | https://www.westsidebaptist.org

SERVE | Week Four | Philippians 2:1-10

Selfish ambition builds empty lives. When we live for ourselves, we miss the joy we were made for. Jesus shows a better way through humility, surrender, and sacrificial love. Take on His mindset, look beyond yourself, and discover the life that comes through serving others.   Invest in the mission and vision of Westside: https://westsidebaptist.org/give   FOLLOW Westside Baptist Church:  ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/westsidegainesville  ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/westsidegainesville  ► Website | https://www.westsidebaptist.org

SERVE | Week Three | 1 Corinthians 12:1-20

What if the most important part of the picture is the piece no one notices until it’s missing? In 1 Corinthians 12, we’re reminded that God has intentionally placed every believer in His Church, uniquely gifted and deeply needed. When we choose not to serve, the whole body feels it. But when we step into our calling, using even the smallest gifts, God multiplies the impact in ways we could never imagine. This message is an invitation to stop spectating, start serving, and discover the joy of being part of something bigger than yourself. Don’t be the missing piece, find your place and help build up the body of Christ.   Invest in the mission and vision of Westside: https://westsidebaptist.org/give   FOLLOW Westside Baptist Church:  ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/westsidegainesville  ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/westsidegainesville  ► Website | https://www.westsidebaptist.org

SERVE | Week Two | Mark 10:35-45

Ambition makes a fragile master. When greatness becomes the goal, we start reaching for status instead of surrender. But Jesus reshapes everything—He shows us that true greatness is found in serving, not being seen. The Son of Man stepped down, took the lowest place, and gave His life as a ransom. When we see our Savior clearly, we stop striving for position and start living with purpose. Follow Him into a life marked not by power, but by sacrificial love.   Invest in the mission and vision of Westside: https://westsidebaptist.org/give   FOLLOW Westside Baptist Church:  ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/westsidegainesville  ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/westsidegainesville  ► Website | https://www.westsidebaptist.org
