There is a lot of confusion in our society today about who Jesus is and what kind of life He offers. Much like the early church, we live in an age and culture full of misconceptions about Christianity. As a result, many people are left with negative impressions of Christians and the church as

a whole. Mahatma Gandhi once said, “I like your Christ, but I don’t like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”

At Southside Fellowship, we are passionate about doing life in such a way that others can’t help but see what authentic Christianity looks like. Our hope is that misconceptions people might have carried for a long time will begin to fade away as we seek to live out the purpose and personality of Jesus in our world. We long for people to be drawn back to Jesus, seeing Him and the life He offers in a fresh, new way.

We invite people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures to come and experience the heart-felt worship, warm fellowship, and insightful biblical teaching that Southside Fellowship has to offer. We don’t claim to have a corner on the market when it comes to good churches, but we do feel we are distinctively different from other churches you might visit in the Greenville area. We hope to have you as our guest.
