NEXT STEPS

BAPTISM

Whether you accepted Christ at Lake Church, another location, or even years ago, and have yet to be baptized, we want you to know that we are here to support you.

 

Baptism is a public declaration of an inward commitment to Jesus Christ, and it is also a commandment from Jesus.

 

If you have decided to follow Christ, we are eager to baptize you and celebrate this important step in your faith journey.

 

To express your interest in baptism, please complete the form below. We will inform you once we have scheduled the next baptism service.

 

Congratulations in advance for taking this significant step of faith!

FIND A LOCAL COMMUNITY

Followers of Jesus are called not only to a relationship with Him but also to a relationship with His body, the Church. In the local church community, every believer finds encouragement, growth, comfort, love, and a reflection of Jesus through His people. It is within the local church that we learn about Jesus, understand His calling for us, and actively live out our faith. Gathering together is a command (Hebrews 10:25) and offers the best way to fully experience God's kingdom.

READ THE BIBLE

The Holy Bible isn't just a book with a bunch of stories, commands, and promises in it. The Bible is a Person. The Gospel of John tells us that the Word became flesh and dwelled among us. That's Jesus! 

​

Reading the Bible enables us to know God, to know what He expects of us, and to know how we can experience the fullness of every promise He has made to us. The Bible also gives divine-practical advise on relationships, finances, business, and so much more! 

​

Reading the Bible and studying it isn't just a next step. No, it is vital to the life of the Christian. God's will for us is to be a reflection of His Son, Jesus, and it's through the Bible that the Holy Spirit does this magnificent and supernatural work in our lives.

PRAY

There are many misconceptions about prayer, but at its core, prayer is simply talking to our Father in heaven. Jesus frequently prayed and sought out quiet places to spend time alone with God. Through prayer—conversing with God and dedicating time to Him—we draw closer to Him and experience His love in profound ways.

​

If you’ve never prayed before, here’s how: pray to the Father with praise and thanksgiving, and make your requests known. Do so in the name of Jesus and with the help of the Holy Spirit who resides in you.

​

In essence, talk to your Father as you would to anyone else, do it in Jesus' name, and watch for His response!

5

PARTNERSHIP

We believe that every follower of Christ should be connected to a local church and actively engaged with it.

 

At Lake Church, partnership involves serving, contributing financially, and helping spread the transformative message of the Gospel.

​

Our partners have a relationship with Jesus, have publicly declared their faith through baptism, and understand our mission:

 

"We exist to help those far from God experience new life in Christ."

6

SERVE

One of our core values is that those who are saved are called to serve others.

Additionally, the Bible teaches that God has bestowed unique gifts upon each of His followers to honor Him and support our church community. You are part of something significant!

​

If you’re ready to take your next step and discover where you can serve, please find more information below!

BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT

When someone gives their heart to Jesus, the Bible assures us that the Holy Spirit dwells within us as His temple (1 Corinthians 3:16-17). In addition to this, there is the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, through which God imparts His supernatural power, empowering us to be His witnesses in all aspects of our lives—wherever we live, work, and go.

​

Every believer is promised the infilling of the Holy Spirit's power. This gift is meant for you!

The Satan and Demons • Understand Evil Spiritual Beings in the Bible (Spiritual Beings Series Ep 4)

The storyline of the Bible presents a populated spiritual world, full of creatures who are in rebellion against their Creator, just like humans. For lots of fascinating reasons, our modern conceptions of the Satan and demons are based on serious misunderstandings of the Bible. So let’s go back to the book of Genesis and start over as we learn about the powers of spiritual evil in the story of the Bible.

God Loves You, But What Does That Mean? (According to the Bible)

The Hebrew word khesed is one of the most common descriptions of God in the Hebrew Bible, and it’s almost impossible to translate into any other language! This word is rich with meaning, combining the ideas of love, loyalty, and generosity. Join us as we explore this fascinating Hebrew word and how it shapes our understanding of God’s character.

What It Means to Love God With "All Your Soul"

What It Means to Love God With "All Your Soul"

We explore the Hebrew word "nephesh" that often gets translated as "soul." The English word usually refers to a non-material essence of a human that survives after death, but nephesh means something different. It is referring to humans as living, breathing, physical beings, or just to life itself. Prepare to be surprised at the biblical meaning of this fascinating word. #Soul #BibleProject #Shema

What It Means to Love God With "All Your Heart"

In this video, we'll explore the ancient Hebrew words for "heart" as well as the different ideas of what our hearts represent. There is no biblical word that captures better the essence of human thought, feeling, and desire than this rich and wonderful word. #Shema #BibleProject #Heart

The Gospel

The Gospel

The New Testament contains four ancient biographies of Jesus of Nazareth, and altogether they are called “the Gospel.” Each one tells the story as an announcement of good news that the crucified and risen Jesus is the true ruler of the nations. In this video, we explore why these accounts were written and how you can read them with greater insight. #BibleProject #Gospel #BibleVideo
