THIS SUNDAY:

2 Timothy: Final Words 
Part 2: 2 Timothy 1:8-18



Paul never misrepresents the cost of disciple-making. If you are going to say “yes” to Jesus’ mission, it’s going to cost you. It’s easy to preach that following Jesus makes your life better. But it’s false advertising if you don’t also tell people that following Jesus will cost them. Suffering is a constant reality in this world. But Paul reminds Timothy that there is something far older and far more powerful than suffering–God’s grace for us in Jesus Christ.

Baptism is the first step in discipleship for new believers. Baptism is a picture of what God is doing on the inside. The Word tells us that we are baptized into Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:3-5). Baptism 101 is an environment for you to learn about baptism, ask questions, and prepare to take this next step of faith. If you are new to faith in Christ, or looking to return to Christ, join us for Baptism 101 after the 11AM service on Feb. 22nd in Conference Room 1. Use the link below to register. (Lunch will be provided)
