The preaching of God’s word is the most important part of our services. It is the focus of what we do. Pastor Mark strives to preach the whole Counsel of God, and we make no apology for standing firm on our belief that the King James Version is the preserved Word of God for the English-speaking people.
Music
At Southside Baptist Church, we strive to honor God with our music service. We stick to the old paths and sing traditional hymns that ring out the Gospel message and praise our Lord and Savior.
Sunday School
We have Sunday School classes for all ages and walks of life. During our Sunday School hour, we strive to teach the Bible in a way that is most cohesive to the individual’s age and spiritual maturity.
Bus Ministry
On Sunday Mornings, our busses travel routes around the Joplin area to pick up children for Sunday School and Children’s Church. If you or your child needs a ride, click the button below and we will get you on the schedule!
We have a nursery available during every service for children aged 0-3 years old. All of our nursery and Children’s Church workers have completed background checks to ensure the safety of your children.
