Baptism Celebration

Posted by in Announcements on

This Sunday – May 18th 2014!

Baptism 2

The act of baptism is something we see in the life of Jesus and one we’re called to follow as we follow our Savior. It’s also a moment for The Church to celebrate the commitment of another follower of Christ.

Baptism by immersion symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. Baptism is all about showing the world that you are in a growing relationship with Jesus, that you’ve put your trust in Him to be your savior. Baptism is what transformation looks like in public. And while baptism is not required for salvation, it’s modeled by Jesus himself and is a biblical command. It’s an obedient response and expression of your faith and commitment to Christ.

*see the following Scriptures for baptism context:

Colossians 2:12; Acts 2:41; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 6:2-4; Matthew 3:13-17; Matthew 28:19-20

Realignment is a way of life.

We realign our backs through chiropractic care. We realign our cars when tires get askew, so they are more efficient. A Coach will challenge and realign us back to the basics and execution of the game so we perform our best.

Realignment is a way of the spiritual life.

There will always be this tension between the way we want to live life and the way God desires we experience and engage in living.

Our attitudes, actions and understandings will need to be realigned from time to time, as we seek to live more and more the way God desires and dreams for us. His mindset and calling for us taking deeper root and flourishing more within. The Scriptures will call us back into alignment, hip-checking out attitudes and challenging our hearts at times…ALL so we live in the flow of how God desires us to live. As followers of God, we’ll need to RE:align from time to time…

Join us for this series as we examine some attributes and attitudes of God that need to RE:align
