We know starting something new like beginning your faith journey or joining a church can be a bit overwhelming, but you’re not alone. We’re here to walk with you, answer your questions, and help you grow in your faith.
Christianity is all about believing in Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He came to Earth, lived a perfect life, died for our sins, and rose again, offering us the gift of salvation. This means that through faith in Jesus, we can have a personal relationship with God and the promise of eternal life. As it says in John 3:16,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
God’s love wasn’t based on anything we have done or will do. God loves us because He chooses to, even when we aren’t at our best!
Ready to Get Started on Your Faith Journey?
Your first and most important next step is to consider making a personal commitment to follow Jesus. This means acknowledging your need for God’s grace, believing in Jesus as your Savior, and choosing to live according to His teachings (Romans 10:9-10).
After salvation, getting baptized is the next step—a public way of of expressing one’s commitment to Jesus, being a part of the Christian family and their desire to live according to Jesus’ teachings for the rest of their lives (Acts 2:38).
Deciding to find a church home that fits you best is your next step. We hope Ivy is the place you will call home, but if not we will be happy to help you find a church that is best for you and your family.
