Next Steps

New here? Start here.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to belong here.

Whether you’re exploring faith, returning to church, or growing in your walk with Jesus, there is always a next step. One simple, meaningful way to move forward.

Our Next Steps are not about pressure or performance. They’re about growing in relationship with Jesus and with one another, just like the early church did.

Step 1: Visit — Experience God’s Presence and God’s People

Every journey starts somewhere. For many, the first step is simply showing up. When we gather, we worship Jesus, teach God’s Word, and make room for the Holy Spirit to work in our lives.

Your Next Step:

  • Attend a Sunday gathering (Plan your visit here.)
  • Come expectant and open
  • Experience Spirit-filled worship and biblical teaching

Step 2: Connect — Build Authentic Relationships

Faith was never meant to be lived alone. Growth happens best in community. The early church devoted themselves to fellowship… to sharing life, meals, and honest conversations.

Your Primary Next Step:

Other Helpful Ways to Connect:

  • Share a meal with someone from church
  • Build relationships through conversation and prayer

“…they devoted themselves… to fellowship, to the breaking of bread…” (Acts 2:42)

Step 3: Grow — Learn God’s Word and Live It

Spiritual growth happens when we consistently place ourselves under God’s Word and allow it to shape how we live. Growth is not about information alone. It’s about transformation.

Your Primary Next Step:

  • Start a Bible Reading Plan (you’re welcome to use ours)

Other Ways to Grow:

“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching…” (Acts 2:42)

Step 4: Serve — Use Your Gifts to Bless Others

God has uniquely gifted every believer, not just for personal benefit, but for building up the body and serving others. Serving is how we move from being consumers to contributors in God’s kingdom.

Your Primary Next Step:

  • Join a ministry team. Whether it’s greeting, media, kids, prayer, or outreach, there’s a place for you. Visit our Ministries page to learn more.

Other Ways to Serve:

  • Discover your spiritual gifts
  • Help with local outreach opportunities

“All the believers were together and had everything in common… they gave to anyone who had need.” (Acts 2:44–45)

Step 5: Go — Share the Gospel Locally and Globally

The church doesn’t exist only for itself. We are sent people. We are called to live out the gospel wherever God places us. As we live faithfully, God brings the increase.

Your Primary Next Step:

  • Invite someone to church. A simple invitation can change a life forever. Our Plan A Visit page can help.

Other Ways to Go:

  • Receive training in evangelism
  • Participate in local and global outreach

“And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.” (Acts 2:47)

Worship — Love the Lord with All Your Heart

Join in Spirit-filled worship at every step along the way. Come early, come expectant, and come encounter God’s presence together.

Check out our events page to know when we will gather to worship.

“Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.” (Acts 2:43)

Baptism — Declare it Publicly

If you have said “yes” to Jesus but have not been water baptized, baptism is an important next step of obedience and public declaration. Please contact the church leadership to find out when our next Baptism Celebration will be held.

“Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day…” (Acts 2:41)
