<p><strong>Step In | The John 3:16 Challenge</strong></p><p>What if this year could be a profoundly happy year. Not because life gets easier, but because you stop trying to carry it alone.</p><p>In this message, we explore what John 3:16 really means. Belief is not just intellectual agreement. It is an active, ongoing trust in Jesus with every part of life. Your past, your present, and your future.</p><p>Using personal stories and the journey of the Israelites, this sermon invites us to stop living from exhaustion and fear and start living from trust, freedom, and purpose. Eternal life does not begin someday. It begins now.</p><p>The invitation is simple. Jesus, I am in.</p><p>Want to go deeper? The mid-week Step In podcast from Southside Church helps you pause, refocus, and lean into the abundant life Jesus offers. Not just as a future promise, but as a present reality. Each episode continues the conversation from Sunday and helps you take your next step.</p><p>Listen at southsidelife.com/step-in</p><p><br></p>
