Liturgy :: 2/15/26 :: Billy Waters

Welcome to Wellspring Church!

In this powerful Sunday, Pastor Billy Waters preached on the meaning and promise of baptism, weaving together Scripture and story to remind us that baptism is far more than a symbol—it is a participation in the death and resurrection of Jesus.

Looking at Colossians 2:12–15, Billy unpacked what it means to be “buried with Christ in baptism” and raised with Him through faith. Baptism points to a new life in Christ, a decisive break with the old, and the reality that we now walk in the power of the Holy Spirit. It is not only going down into the waters and coming back up—it is stepping into a new identity, a new promise, and a new power.

This truth comes alive in a special testimony at the end of the sermon. Baptism is not just a church event, but a response to God’s personal work in our lives.

Together, the message and testimony reminded us that baptism marks the beginning of a transformed life—raised with Christ, forgiven, and empowered to walk in freedom.

📖 Key Themes in This Message:

🔹 Buried with Christ and raised to new life through faith

🔹 Baptism as a sign of God’s promise and our new identity

🔹 The power of the Holy Spirit at work in believers

🔹 Responding in obedience when God stirs our hearts

Baptism is more than a moment—it is a declaration that Jesus has won the victory, and we now live in that victory. As we remember our own baptism, we are invited again to walk in the fullness of the new life He has given us.
