God With Us (and manger scene)

January Sermon Series: Together

January 14 – “It’s More than H2O”

Scripture: Mark 1:4-11

Some members of our church family do not understand the concept of infant baptism. Others are concerned because they don’t remember their baptism and request to be rebaptized. This will be a teaching sermon that discusses baptism from the perspective of sacramental theology. We will discuss what John Wesley called “prevenient grace” and how this grace enters into our understanding of baptism. At the end of the sermon, everyone of all ages is invited to the Baptism Renewal Service to remember or anticipate their baptism. Together, let us be united in “one Lord, one faith, and one baptism (Ephesians 4:5).”
