What makes communion and baptism so important? This week in our series Becoming – Living the Way of Jesus with the People of God, Pastor CJ Ward explains the meaning of sacraments and why they matter for our faith.
Scripture:
Joshua 4:1–7
1 Corinthians 11:23–26
Romans 6:3–4
Sacraments are not magic—they are sacred because they remind us that something happened. Jesus’ death and resurrection have changed everything. Communion and baptism are memorials that point us back to that reality:
Communion reminds us of Christ’s body and blood given for us.
Baptism is our public declaration that our old life is gone and we now belong to Jesus.
Sacraments both comfort us when we feel unworthy and challenge us to obedience. Above all, they remind us that because of Jesus, everything is different now.
