Baptism.
Baptism is going public about your faith in Jesus and shouting to the world your heartfelt commitment to following Him. It's the next step after salvation.
The Book of Romans says that when we go under the water, we identify with Christ who went into the grave, and when we come out of the water, we identify with His resurrection. Baptism signifies what has already happened to us spiritually. Our old identity as a sinner is gone, and we rise with a new identity in Christ. Baptism is an outward expression of an inward decision for Christ.
A note about kids under 12
We love when children are baptized at The Bridge. The basis for water baptism is salvation, and we know that real conversion can happen in the life of a child. Before any child under 12 is baptized, they meet with a pastor - simply to ensure they fully understand the significance of what they're doing.
Baptisms are scheduled many times throughout the year. Click the button below to sign up for our next baptism.
