Easter at Southview | Dispel Sorrow
This week, Pastor Nathan Wakefield continues our Easter sermon series. In John 20:11-18, we see that, despite current struggles or the burden of grief, the resurrection of Christ offers hope, healing, and assurance. It reminds us that no sorrow is beyond the reach of God’s resurrection power. Video of the worship service is available beginning Sunday at 9:30 AM at https://southviewbaptist.org/live.
