LISTEN to a recent teaching on Baptism

BAPTISM
At Ethos Church, we believe baptism is one of the most exciting moments in a person’s journey of faith.

Baptism is a powerful moment in which we publicly identify ourselves with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ as we surrender our ways to His way. It is a life changing moment.

BAPTISM AT ETHOS CHURCH
At Ethos Church, we celebrate baptism in a variety of ways.

In the past year, people have been baptized in front of large crowds during our Sunday Worship Gatherings, in small groups after a house church meeting on a week night, in rivers and pools — even during lunch breaks in our church office with just a handful of friends to celebrate.

Regardless of the time, the place, or the number of people watching — we love to celebrate as people decide to follow Jesus through baptism.

BAPTISM SUNDAY | Sunday, Feb 19th (9:15AM, 10:45AM, 5PM, 7PM)
Over the last several months, many of you have made the decision to follow Jesus for the very first time. What an incredible decision! Some of you know you are ready to make that decision, but for a variety of reasons have yet to jump all the way in.

On Sunday, February 19th, at all of our worship gatherings, you will have a special opportunity to take the next step in your journey with Jesus through baptism.

We believe baptism is a big step, and not something to just rush into — so that is why we are giving you a heads up about February 19th. Take some time to think, pray, search the scriptures, and your heart about your relationship with Jesus and what it means to commit your life to Him.

ARE YOU READY TO BE BAPTIZED?
If you or someone you know is ready to be baptized :

1) Send an email to baptism@ethoslove.com and include your Name, Age, and tell us a little bit about your faith story.

2) Once you have sent an email, someone from our ministry team will contact you to set up a time to talk, pray, and fill you in on the details for Feb 19th.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
If you still have questions, don’t hesitate send us an email (baptism@ethoslove.com) and someone will get back with you shortly.

At Ethos Church, we love looking for natural opportunities to connect with our friends and neighbors who are not a part of a church family. In the south, one of the most natural opportunities to do this is on Superbowl Sunday. Our first priority as a church family is to Love God deeply. Our second priority is to Love people well.

Here is how we will Love God and Love People on Superbowl Sunday.

First, we want to keep our priorities in line by gathering together as a church to express our love towards God in worship. We worship God, not football, so we don’t cancel our worship gatherings so we can watch a game.

Second, in an effort to love our friends & neighbors well — we will be flexible with our meeting times to provide everyone in our church an opportunity to not only gather with our church family for worship, but to gather with their friends and neighbors who aren’t a part of a church to watch the game. So make sure you go ahead and invite your friends and neighbors over to your place to watch the game. After all, we believe Jesus’ followers should throw the best parties.

Schedule : Superbowl Sunday, FEB 6th
