Next Steps
Deciding to become a follower of Jesus is the most important step, not just in your spiritual journey but of your entire life.
Once you have decided to place your faith in Jesus Christ and His death and resurrection for the forgiveness of your sins, God wants to develop your life into a life of purpose and growth. These 4 “steps” are designed to help you fulfill your full potential as a follower of Christ.
Be Baptized
There are at least three reasons every follower of Jesus should be baptized in water. First, because of the example of Jesus (Matthew 3:16). Second, because of the example of believers in the Bible (Acts 2:41–42). And third, because God instructs new believers to in the Bible (Acts 2:38). Contact the office to sign-up and find out when our next baptism event will be.
Become a Member
Committing to a local church is an important step for every follower of Jesus. Brooklake 101 is a 2 hour class we offer quarterly and serves as our official membership class. We cover who we are, where we’re headed and why we do the things we do. To sign up for the next Brooklake 101, use the Connection Card in one of our services. A meal and childcare is provided.
Join a Group
Our goal is that everyone that calls Brooklake their church will be in a group. As important as our weekend services are, life change happens best within the context of community. Open sign-ups for groups are in September, January and May. Look for our Connect Catalog at one of our Sunday services.
Serve on a Team
Service is not reserved for those who are farther along in their relationship with Jesus. On the contrary, service is one of the ways in which God grows our faith. We have several opportunities to help you get started right away.
