“Your life is no longer your own. You exist for the glory of God.”

Our Sin
God’s Gift
We can’t earn God’s forgiveness – it must be given. Jesus gave His life as a sacrifice so that we could be forgiven.
Our Response
We must accept this free gift from God by committing our lives and heart to Jesus.
A Symbol of Your Faith
Baptism shows others that you have been made new. It represents your old sinful life being washed clean because of your faith in Jesus.
Celebrate Your Faith!
If you’ve made the decision to follow Christ, baptism is one of the most meaningful next steps you can take.
Baptism is a public celebration of your decision to follow Christ.
What do followers of Jesus Believe?
We believe in God as the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are all one God and are joined together into what we call the Trinity. As a fully devoted follower of Jesus, you are a new creation made to live for Him.
“This is absolutely foundational in your growth as a follower of Jesus.”
Matthew MaxwellLead Pastor
God the Father
God is the creator of the world and calls us His children.
The Holy Spirit
The power of God is alive in us through the Holy Spirit.
How Do I Grow More in my Faith?
God wants to have a relationship with us and He’s given us ways to know Him better. As we get to know God, we better understand His plan for us and we can strive to be more like Jesus.
“The reality is - it is never going to happen by accident. Spiritual growth is intentional.”
Matthew MaxwellLead Pastor

Make Prayer Part of Your Day
Prayer is talking to God, and there’s nothing more powerful than asking for God’s help.
Listen
Talking to God isn’t a one-way street – He wants to talk to us, too. Take time to learn His voice and listen to His direction for you.
Worship
Any time we give God credit for His goodness, we are worshipping Him. When we pray, serve, or help others in their faith, we are following God’s will and showing our gratitude for who He is.
What’s my next step?
Just like any other relationship, we need to invest time and effort into getting to know who God is and what He wants for us.
“If simply going to church is your plan, you are missing out on the best that the church has to offer.”
Matthew MaxwellLead Pastor
Connect
Life is better together. When we interact with other followers of Christ we find support and encouragement to continue in our faith.
Give
When we give our time, talents, or financial gifts, we give God the chance to prove His faithfulness.
Share
When you experience something as good as God’s love, you want to share it with the people in your life! Talk about how God has changed your life, build relationships, and invite someone to come to church with you.
