At The Dwelling Place

The First Sunday in Epiphany is where we remember the baptism of Jesus. Why does Christ wade into the waters of repentance? He didn’t need baptism, but baptism needed Him. Jesus is immersed into the river with us, so that He might sanctify the waters (make them holy) and receive the Spirit for us. The account of Jesus being baptized by John in the Jordan is full of rich symbolism. Plan to be with us in this second Sunday of the New Year as we consider Jesus as the New Adam giving us a new start. Our study is called: River of no Return.
