Every now and then you meet someone and you ask what they do professionally and then you walk away still not sure what they do professionally. Roy Staley is one of those guys. He works for Nvidia and he makes computers do really cool things. He's a deacon at Southside, he's a husband, a father of two, and a faithful follower of Christ. We hope today's episode clarifies a little bit of what Roy does, how he's still able to glorify G...
We are sometimes bound by something. Sin. Struggle. Pain. Loneliness. Uncertainty. God gives us the ability to identify that we've got a problem. He also gives us the ability to see (through His word) that we have access to his solution. I hope this week encourages you as you try to recognize what's holding you back from fully allowing you to be a follower of Christ!
Peyton Crump is one of the deacons who serve in many of the ministries at Southside.

Apologies for the late upload on this one! I (Jackson) dropped the ball on getting the edit complete! But I think this discussion about facing your giants is a great one. We all have giants. We've got to face them or they're going to always loom over us. Remember you don't have to face them alone. When David went up against Goliath, he was not alone. God was with him. And the same God that was with David is with us. You can face yo...

We hope this episode is encouraging as you strive to Altar Your Algorithm!
Hunter Ezell is one of the coolest people in all of Hopkinsville. You've probably seen some of his work online. He films weddings, is a great photographer, and most importantly loves Jesus. Today's conversation was fun. And I hope it's uplifting considering all that has happened over the last week.
Be kind and show grace.
We had a great conversation this week with Ricky Wells, one of the deacons at Southside. He's creative, has a joy for serving, and his work ethic produces a lot of good work. This good work includes his family, the church, and even where he works. One of the key takeaways is 'If you're going to do something, do it right.' That's a mantra that Ricky lives by and we can see it expounded on in scripture (Colossians 3:23, the unofficia...

In this kickoff episode of our new series Becoming a Giant Killer, we dive into the story of David and Goliath to uncover what it means to identify the “giants” in our lives.

We explore why identifying your giants is the first step toward defeating them, how fear and intimidation ...

Our faith today impacts our family and friends in the future. We hope this episode is encouraging and gives you a bit of confidence as you seek to Al...

We explore how faith is built before the battle...
