Begin Your Journey
Your Journey Toward Jesus Starts Here
Spiritual growth is a simple journey of moving toward Jesus.
Know Jesus
It Starts with a Decision
You don’t have to wait until your life is perfect to move toward Jesus. He meets you where you are, but He also invites you to move forward. You can choose to commit your life to Him and follow through with baptism as your next bold step.
You have the opportunity here to learn how to read the Bible and understand God’s truth for your daily life. As you develop a consistent life of prayer and worship, you will find that faith isn’t a performance. It is a growing relationship with a Savior who loves you. You can bring your questions and your history here, knowing there is a clear path for your spiritual growth.

What does it mean to Know Jesus?
You can sit in a service for years and never truly be known. Jesus designed you for relationship rather than isolation. You need a circle of friends who will speak truth into your life when things get hard. “My Journey” makes this connection simple. You gather on Wednesday nights for a shared meal. You break into groups to dig into the Bible while your kids learn in their own space. This is where you find the people who will walk with you.

Leaving a Legacy
Ready to Take This Step?
Your decision to follow Jesus deserves to be celebrated. The process here is simple and personal to your story. You can connect with a pastor to answer any lingering questions and prepare for this meaningful moment. You do not have to be perfect to get baptized. You just have to be ready to follow Him.
Where Are You Today?
Take a moment to reflect. Which stage resonates with you right now?
- Are you asking questions?
- Are you ready to commit?
- Do you need community?
- Are you ready to serve?
You never have to apologize for where you are starting. Growth is a lifelong process for everyone. The most important thing is simply refusing to stay stuck. Jesus has more for your life. The guidance you need to find is waiting.
Still Have Questions?
Spiritual growth is rarely a perfectly straight line. You might join a community group before you are baptized. You might serve on a team while you still have questions. However, we believe these stages represent a natural biblical progression of maturity.
It is normal to hit plateaus in your faith. Often, the solution is to re-engage with community or find a new way to serve. If you feel stuck, try joining a Journey Group or asking a pastor about mentoring opportunities.
Absolutely. You can attend a Journey Group your first week here. You can sign up to serve even if you are new. We will help you find the right fit for your gifts and your current season of life.
