Our nation is in desperate need of real men. We need leaders who are strong enough to battle for the truth yet possess the discipline and control to be patient, thoughtful, and kind. Only God can build such gentlemen. He does so, however, through His Word and His church. At South Side, our men are encouraged to accept the biblical challenge of providing spiritual leadership in their homes, work, and church.
Every Sunday morning at 7:30, the men prepare for the day with a short scriptural charge directed toward growth in godliness and biblical masculinity. Then they pray for God’s power in evangelism, grace, and healing for the afflicted, as well as joy and effectiveness in our ministry responsibilities. All this is followed by breakfast and fellowship. Men’s prayer is not merely a great way to prepare our hearts for worship; it is truly the beating heart of South Side.
Along with many other activities, we attend the Men’s Advance in Stillwater, Oklahoma, each year. Thousands of men from scores of churches nationwide make this meeting a tremendous tool for reinforcing the training we receive each week in church.
South Side is an enthusiastic supporter of Trail Life USA. Trail Life is a Christian outdoor adventure program for men and boys that unapologetically teaches biblical character and morality. As our culture drifts further from the light of God’s truth, the need for Christlike courage and virtue grows greater and greater. The best way for boys to develop these traits is to be mentored by godly, masculine, Christian men. The church proudly hosts Troop 2029, which meets weekly on Monday nights at 6:30.
