Baptism 101
Sunday, November 1st, 2026 | 12:15pm - 2pm | Room 603 | Lunch Provided
Baptism is a deeply personal, yet public, proclamation of one's faith in Christ and intention to follow Him in new life. Because baptism is understood differently in various faith traditions, we must know the scriptural meaning of baptism and Jesus' intent when He commanded that His followers be baptized. If you are ready to explore further, please click Register Here below to attend Bay Life's Baptism 101 class. Baptism 101 is our prerequisite class in which we share important information about baptism, schedule the specific time for your baptism, and explain how the process will work. This class is for Middle School, High school, and Adult Participants. If you have any questions, please email Lacie Krantz at
Those who attend and fulfill all requirements of Baptism 101 will have the choice to be baptized after one of our services on Sunday, November 15th, 2026.

Classes Starting Early Spring 2027:
Victory Series
Book #3 ~ Your Foundation in Christ
Do Your Beliefs Reflect the Truth?
We all have faith in something. No doubt, the voices we listen to and follow will determine whether we live in freedom-- or in bondage.
Is your faith rooted in enduring truth? Or in the world's ever-changing messages? And how can you recognize one from the other?
In Your Foundation in Christ, Dr. Neil Anderson shows us how intricately intertwined we are with the God who created us, and how only His truth can set us free.
In this third of eight Victory Series studies, you will discover what it means to:
- Live with Christ as your sure foundation
- See your faith grow
- Gain power to live by His Spirit
- ultimately learn to overcome fear and live boldly for Him
With six sessions, this study can be used individually or in a group, and includes a leader's guide, along with illustrations and questions for deeper reflection and practical applications.
Now is the time to deepen the roots of your faith, know more intimately the One who is truth alone--and courageously live out what you believe.
Wired
Paul tells us in Romans 12, "For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them." Join us as we discover how God has uniquely wired us to be a part of the body of Christ. We will walk through a personality type assessment, strengths assessment, emotional intelligence insight and multiple passages of Scripture on this journey of discovery. Come see how you can be used by God for His eternal purposes.

More Classes on the Way:
Bondage Breaker
Date & Time TBA
Spiritual warfare has often been described as the battle for our minds. Galatians 5:1 tells us, "For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery." The "yoke of slavery" that Paul is referring to are harmful habits, negative thinking, and irrational feelings that keep us in bondage, incapable of enjoying our freedom in Jesus. Join us as we discover the reality behind these bondages and how to be set free from them. Come see how you can live a life of freedom in Jesus.
Multiply: Discipleship Basics
Date & Time TBA
In Matthew 28, Jesus commands us to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them, and teaching them to follow His commands. In one word, this is discipleship. Discipleship is the process of intentionally equipping believers with the Word of God through accountability relationships empowered by the Holy Spirit in order to replicate faithful followers of Christ. Join us as we embark on a 5-week discipleship journey in which you will be equipped to be the disciple-maker that God has called each of us to be.
Multiply: Discipleship Basics meets every Sunday for five weeks during second service. There is no cost. Optional books will be available to purchase. If you have a Bible, bring it. If not, we would love to help you get one.
Sharing Your Faith with Confidence
Date & Time TBA
Most Christians want to share their faith but often do not because of fear—fear of being rejected, fear of not knowing enough, fear of offending others, or fear of being ridiculed. This class will teach you proven techniques for having thoughtful discussions about faith and getting people to think about Jesus. Course material is based on Tactics: a Guide to Effectively Discussing Your Christian Convictions, by Gregory Koukl.
Join us for seven weeks, as we learn how to share our faith with confidence in an ever-changing world.
The Seven Money Types -
Discover How God Wired You To Handle Money
Fall 2027
Have you ever wondered why you are the way you are when it comes to finances? Could the way you feel about and relate to money be part of God’s design? True financial well-being means much more than getting out of debt and managing money well. It involves understanding how you’ve been wired by God to feel toward, think about, and handle money. The Seven Money Types will be an 8-week class that will explore these questions and help you understand how your use of finances and resources reflects the image of God.
Registration includes a copy of the book "The Seven Money Types: Discover How God Wired You To Handle Money" by Tommy Brown and a companion workbook for $20. You may wish to purchase a copy for each person registering.
The Awe of God
Date & Time TBA
The Awe of God is a powerful class based on the book by John Bevere that invites participants to rediscover a holy reverence for who God truly is. In a culture that often minimizes the fear of the Lord, this class explores why awe matters, how it shapes our faith, and how it draws us into a deeper, more authentic relationship with God. Through weekly conversations, teaching, and reflection, we will examine how a right view of God transforms the way we live, worship, and follow Jesus. This class is designed to strengthen your spiritual foundation, renew your passion for God, and help you grow in obedience, humility, and trust.
We will meet weekly on Sundays, creating space for community, discussion, and spiritual growth as we journey together toward a deeper awe of God.
Victory: Realizing the Power of Your Identity in Christ
Date & Time TBA
Jesus tells us in John 8:32, "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free." Join us as we discover the truth as to who we are in Christ. Additionally, we will learn practical down-to-earth strategies that will help us to be released from the burdens of the past and to realize the power of our identity in Jesus Christ. Come see how you can live a joyous life, empowered by Jesus.
