Baptism

Understanding Baptism

A Journey of Faith

At First Baptist Madison, we recognize baptism as a significant step in your spiritual journey. Whether you're new to the faith or looking to understand the process better, we're here to guide you through this important decision.

Baptism is a symbolic act that publicly identifies an individual as a follower of Jesus Christ. It's an outward expression of an inner faith and a profound step on your spiritual path. By taking part in baptism, you're making a declaration of your faith to the world.


Baptism is a powerful testimony of your commitment to Christ. Through this act, you're expressing your repentance, your acceptance of God's forgiveness, and your dedication to living a life aligned with His teachings.

Steps to Take:
  1. Talk with a Pastor: We encourage you to reach out to one of our pastors. They'll be delighted to discuss baptism with you, answer your questions, and pray with you. 
  2. The Baptism Service: Baptisms are typically conducted during our Sunday worship services. This is a momentous occasion that you, your family, and the church congregation will celebrate together.
