We believe baptism is the first step of obedience after you’ve made the decision to follow Jesus. It’s a public declaration of a personal decision-an outward expression of the inward change God has made in your life. 

We know baptism can raise questions. You might be wondering why baptism matters, whether you should be baptized again, or if the method of baptism makes a difference. You’re not alone in those questions, and we’d love to walk with you as you explore them. Be sure to watch the baptism teachings above, and please feel free to reach out to one of our pastors if you’d like to talk more.

After you give your life to Christ. As soon as you have given your life to Christ and have received Him as your Savior, you can and should be baptized. If you wait until you’re “perfect,” you’ll never feel “good enough”. Jesus asks you to follow Him in baptism now.

The best way to determine if your child is ready to be baptized is to come to the baptism class. There, we will speak with you and your child to determine their level of understanding of the decision they are making.

A baptism class prepares someone to be baptized with understanding, faith, and obedience, not just participation in a ritual-but a clear declaration: “I belong to Jesus, and I am walking in new life.” If you are ready to be baptized, we invite you to this class, which takes place the week before our calendared baptisms. The class is located in our white office building from 10:00am-10:45am.
