Westside Sermons

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

SERVE | Week One | John 13:1-17

Jesus didn’t just teach love; He demonstrated it. In John 13, we see a Savior who recognized the moment, rose to serve, and gave what He had for the sake of others. He loved the next. He served the next. And He calls us to do the same, living with open hands, humble hearts, and a vision that reaches beyond ourselves to the next generation.   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

Built on Love | 1 Corinthians 13 | David Chauncey

Love is more than a feeling. It is the foundation of a Kingdom life. You can have truth, endurance, and even great faith, but without love something is missing. God’s love is what called us, shapes us, and sustains us. When we drift, He invites us back to remember, repent, and return to our first love. Walk by the Spirit, live from His love, and discover the kind of life that never fades. Love is the beginning, the evidence, and the forever reality of His Kingdom.

Unshakable | Week Four | Hebrews 10:19-29

Because He lives, everything changes. What once stood between us and God has been removed. Jesus made a way, once and for all. No more striving to earn it, no more fear of falling short. We are invited to draw near with confidence, to hold tightly to hope when life feels uncertain, and to live as people who refuse to shrink back.   This Easter, we’re reminded that our faith isn’t fragile, it’s anchored in a finished work and a faithful Savior. So we gather, we encourage one another, and we run with endurance, knowing we belong to a Kingdom that cannot be shaken.   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
