Pastor Trey Hildebrant | November 1, 2026

Faith is personal, but it was never meant to remain private. In this special Baptism Sunday message from the Far From Home series, Pastor Trey Hildebrant explores the story of the Ethiopian official in Acts 8 and the call to publicly share what God has done in our lives. Baptism is both a celebration of new life in Jesus and a sign of the transformation He brings. It doesn’t earn salvation, but it boldly declares that Jesus has changed us from the inside out. Discover why baptism has been an important step for believers throughout history, what it symbolizes, and why following Jesus often begins by simply saying yes to the next step of faith. Whether you’re exploring faith for the first time or considering baptism yourself, this message is a powerful reminder that God’s invitation is open to everyone who seeks Him with an open heart.
