Series Overview
The sacraments are earthly signs that engage us in heavenly realities. God meets us through tangible channels—words, water, bread, wine, oil, and the gathered people of God—so that His divine life touches our human need. In this series, we’ll explore how God brings His grace to us, not through abstraction, but through participation.

Baptism is where private belief becomes public identity—and where shame is replaced with grace.
