I think the most important thing to remember is that baptism is deeply meaningful. It’s about the heart and the relationship with God, not just the ceremony itself. Baptism is a public declaration of faith and a symbolic act of dying to one’s old life and being raised to new life in Christ (Romans 6:3-4).

If your counsel isn’t encouraging, correcting, and challenging you as a believer, chances are they shouldn’t be in the wise counsel circle.

Following Christ and His word is a life-long sanctification process of growing, trusting, and redeveloping.

Sometimes I live under a rock. I am utterly oblivious to what is going on in the world or popular at the moment. For example, I had no idea that a popular Christian song, “Plead the Blood” was released in May 2023. Honestly, I was wondering why I was hearing so many people say the […]
