Side by Side, Part 4

In the final week of Side by Side, Pastor Scotty brings the conversation back to where so much of Jesus’ ministry happened—around a table. With humility and biblical depth, he unpacks why Northshore’s Overseers believe that men and women are called to lead side by side—not in reaction to culture, but in response to God’s original design and Jesus’ redemptive work. It’s a vision rooted in mutuality, shared authority, and the belief that spiritual leadership should reflect the full image of God in both men and women. But this message is about more than leadership. It’s about what makes us a family. Because while disciples are formed by listening to Jesus, we become a family by eating with Him. Around that table, we learn to stay together through disagreement, to love across difference, and to embody a kind of unity the world desperately needs to see.
