You were made on purpose and for a purpose. And that purpose is to point people to Jesus (Colossians 1:16). Baptism is one of the first and most powerful ways to do that. It’s not the pinnacle of your faith; it’s the beginning.

At Be Hope Church, we celebrate baptism big because it’s the public proclamation of your new life, faith, and hope in Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17)!
When you are baptized, you’re declaring: “My life belongs to Jesus.” And that declaration doesn’t stop in the water.

Your purpose is to reflect His hope every day to your friends, family, coworkers, and teammates (Romans 12:2). You don’t need a platform or a microphone to live with purpose. You simply need a willingness to show up, follow Jesus, and let your faith be seen. When you live courageously for Him, your life becomes a walking testimony—a billboard of hope that points others toward what’s possible for them too (Matthew 5:16).That’s why we celebrate baptism and cheer like crazy. Because every baptism is a reminder that we were created to live on purpose, for God’s purpose, and to point the world to Jesus. That’s why we celebrate baptism and cheer like crazy! Because every time someone says yes to Jesus and is baptized, we’re reminded, “this is what we were made for.”

Scripture Focus:
 “And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.”

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
  - Matthew 28:19-20

Pause + Pray:
God, thank You for giving my life purpose.
Help me live in such a way that my words, actions, and choices point others to Jesus.
Give me courage to reflect Your hope every day. Amen.
