Next Steps
You were created to grow in your relationship with Christ, and we want to be a part of that journey. Here are a few practical and personal next steps—as well as some to get better connected with our Church:
- 1️⃣ Put your faith in Jesus Christ! If you haven't already made a profession of faith in Christ, this is where we all start. Confess your sins to God, repent (turn) from your sins and turn to Him. The death of Christ on the Cross provides atonement and forgiveness for your sins. Rejoice! (Romans 10:9-10).
- 📖 Read your Bible everyday. Spend time with the Lord. Ask Him to give you understanding about what you're reading. Journal along with your reading.
- 🙏 Spend time in Prayer. Pray for your day, pray for others, ask God for His provision, protection, etc. He loves to hear His people pray.
- 😊 Give thanks! This is very underrated. Practice giving thanks for "every good gift" (James 1:17) from the Lord in your life. Maturity will be giving thanks even for the hard things, but this too will soon make sense.
- 🙌 Worship the Lord. Worship should become a natural growing desire as you walk with the Lord. Worship is not just singing praise to God, it's a lifestyle! (1 Corinthians 10:31).
- ⛪️ Keep coming to Church. The Church exists to help us grow, to equip us, to train us in Godliness, to feed our souls, and for so much more!
- 📝 Take notes in Church. Listen to the messages, take notes, write down questions, ask them, dive deeper... All these things will help you grow.
- 💬 Talk with a Pastor or Leader after service. We will always hang around after service to meet and talk to anyone who wants to be here and walk with Jesus.
- ⚡️ Get plugged into smaller groups. Find a group you can connect with. Call and text with others from church. We all need people in our corner.
- ✝️ Share your faith. We are made to be conduits of God's grace, not cul-de-sacs. Your faith will be strengthened as you share it with others. God has commanded us to "go into all the world" (Matthew 28:18-20) and share the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ.
- 💯 Become a part of the Church. No more spectating—get in the game—be committed! We would love to be "your church". Click the button below to get better connected:
Giving
God loves a cheerful giver! (2 Corinthians 9:7) The Church exists because of the generosity of it's members who are a conduit of God's grace.
Thank you for giving to us and through us.
