In this sermon, Mike Phillips begins our Going Deeper with God series by exploring the meaning and significance of baptism. Drawing on Jesus’ command in Matthew 28, Peter’s call to repentance in Acts 2, and Paul’s teaching in Romans 6, we discover that baptism is far more than a church tradition. It is a powerful sign of God’s grace, our union with Christ, and our new life in Him.

Baptism points to what God has done for us through Jesus: the forgiveness of sins, the gift of the Holy Spirit, and the promise of new life. It marks our belonging to Christ and His people, and calls us to live as His disciples.

This message invites us to ask:

What does it mean to belong to Jesus and live in the reality of our baptism?

You'll be encouraged to:

• Understand the purpose and meaning of baptism

• See how baptism points to Jesus’ death and resurrection

• Rejoice in God's promises of forgiveness and new life

• Embrace your identity as a disciple of Christ

Whether your baptism was recent, many years ago, or you're still considering it, this sermon reminds us that God calls us to live the new life He has given us in Christ. [sermon | Txt]
