“We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” Romans 6:4. The follower of Jesus has the great privilege of participating, symbolically, with the Lord in His death and resurrection through the ordinance of baptism. This act of obedience represents Spiritual Victory! So we are very excited for the 10 people who are being baptized at our church today!
This blog contains comments and teaching regarding living the Christian faith and comments on the intersection of faith and many other aspects of life from pop culture to science. It also has some stories--hopefully they are amusing stories--from my life. ~Dan
