Baptismal Promises

Church Beyond The Building

Baptismal Promises

I will live among God’s faithful people;

I will hear the word of God and share in the Lord’s Supper;

I will proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed;

I will serve all people following the example of Jesus;

I will strive for justice and peace in all the earth.

Behold! The New Has Come!

At its heart, Behold, the New Has Come! is about helping congregations rediscover that the church exists not mainly to preserve itself, but to form and send baptized people into the world God loves --- and trusting that, in doing so, new life will come.
