YOU HAVE A STORY
Baptism is a unique opportunity to tell others about your faith in Jesus. Through baptisms, we’ve helped hundreds of people share their stories of how following Jesus has changed everything for them! We’d love to help you experience baptism for yourself and allow God to use your faith story to impact other people. If you're the parent of an elementary student please click here for more information about our Baptism process for kids and parents!

Common Questions About Baptism
What is baptism?
Jesus was baptized. Since then, millions of his followers have followed his example. Baptism is a way for you to do the same and participate in a common experience with Jesus followers around the world. Baptism is a way to go public with your faith to show others that you have started a personal relationship with Jesus. Baptism is not necessary for salvation. It symbolizes the new life you began when you started following Jesus. It symbolizes your old life dying (going under the water) and your new life (coming out of the water).
Do I have to do a video?
We believe sharing your profession of faith publicly is an essential part of baptism! We believe every single person has a story worth sharing. We'd love to have a conversation with you about this important step in publicly professing your belief in Jesus.
What about infant baptism/christening?
Some churches choose to christen or baptize infants. While we recognize the right of other churches to practice infant baptism, we understand Scripture to teach that only people who have made the decision to follow Jesus should be baptized. Baptism does not make you a Christian. It shows that you already are one.
