Decide...To Be Baptized
From Series: "Decide! (Hillside Theme - 2024)"
The word for Hillside in 2024 is "Decide." Will we choose to follow God, or will we choose to serve ourselves?

When Peter is talking to the churches in 2 Peter 2 about Persecution, he brings up one interesting name: Lot. We don’t often remember Lot for his goodness, but Peter says that his “righteous soul was vexed” by the immorality that was around him daily. Daniel was in the same boat. Exiled in Babylon after the destruction of Judah, Daniel lived decades in a land that was pagan in every sense of the word: religiously, culturally, emotionally, and physically. Many of us know how those two men felt. How do we survive in a pagan world that is hostile to all things Christ? The same way they did.

CloseAt the end of every service, we offer an invitation that gives everyone an opportunity to get their life right with God -- whatever that may entail. Whatever you need and whatever we can help with, we want to. Last Sunday, we made that plea more direct: If you're not baptized, we want you to make the the choice to do so today. We're not in the business of coercing anyone to make a decision they're not ready for, but chances are, if you've attended services for any length of time, baptism is something you've considered. Possibly even prayed about. And regardless of what you may think, you're ready. We can't wait to help you take this all-too-necessary step.
