Reflection
- Have you been baptized? If not, who is a believer you could talk to and take this next step of obedience with?
- Have you ever baptized someone?
- Would you even consider it?
- If the Great Commission is for every follower of Jesus, does that mean every follower is allowed to baptize others? Why or why not?
Action Step
- If you haven’t been baptized, talk to someone who has and ask them why they were baptized. If you feel prompted ask them to baptize you. If you have already been baptized, pray through your list of 10 and pick one to explain baptism to. Ask if they would like to be baptized.
