Questions seekers often ask

Do I need to fix my life before coming to Jesus?

No. Jesus calls the weary and heavy-laden. Repentance is turning to Him; transformation continues as you walk with Him.

How do I know I’m saved?

Salvation rests on Christ’s finished work and God’s promises—not on fluctuating feelings. Trust what God has said in His Word (Romans 10:9; John 5:24).

What if I still struggle with sin?

Believers still battle sin, but we are no longer slaves to it. Confess quickly, receive forgiveness, and keep walking in the Spirit (1 John 1:9; Galatians 5:16).

Which church should I attend?

Look for a congregation that preaches the Bible faithfully, centers on Jesus, practices baptism and the Lord’s Supper, and loves people well. We can help you think it through—contact us.
