2. Post baptism class What next? What do I do after baptism? 2

3. Post baptism class Do you feel the same way? After all, Jesus tells us that baptism is  the best “next step” after deciding to follow him . After baptism, it becomes less clear. Of course, we’re supposed to  love God and our neighbors , but how exactly do I do that? It can be overwhelming, but there’s good news! God doesn’t want us to be confused, and he’s given us a few ways to discover how to keep taking next steps after baptism.

4. Post baptism class Three Things to Do After Baptism Start a habit of connecting with God.  Find trusted friends who know Jesus.  Start serving other people. 4

5. The most important commandment God gives us is to love Him above anything else . When you love someone, you seek a relationship with them. Right? Whether that means a scheduled, daily quiet time before work,  a new Bible Plan , or even constant prayers throughout the day just acknowledging Him. Seek God and a relationship with Him. 5 Romans 12:2  Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. 2 Timothy 1:7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline Start a habit of connecting with God . 

6. 2.Find trusted friends who know Jesus.  8 Nothing is harder than trying to do life alone. Finding  people to walk alongside you  in life is key to staying on the right path. God created us as social people, no matter  how introverted you are   (trust me!). Your friends are there to help you,  strengthen you , and support you.

8. 3. Start serving other people.  Whether it’s working with kids, being creative, or just being ridiculously good at making someone smile,   God’s given you specific talents . And He wants to work through you. Serving changed my life so much that it put me on a different career path! So take your gift and get plugged in at your local community. It could look like serving with your local church, non-profit, or school.  God wants to use you ! Serving has taught me so much about how uniquely God has created me. 10

10. 3. Start serving other people  12  I wasn’t perfect, but did my best. The more time I spend with Jesus, the more like Him I become. When I fall short, I’m surrounded by trusted friends who challenge me and encourage me. My friends are there to help redirect me and guide me when things get hard. Seek God, find community, start serving, and you’ll find new life.
