What our Community is saying
“I rededicated my life to Christ in 2016 I have been attending Victory for a couple years and it has always been on my heart to get baptized again due to the fact that I was a child the first time. That day I tried to ignore the tug on my heart to do it when they announced any and everyone could be baptized. I stood up and my legs led me right to the baptism area where I was greeted with love and kindness and everything I needed from cloths to a swim cap. I’m so thankful for that opportunity God bless Victory for doing the Lords will.”

I do not attend Victory regularly, I was asked to come to a Women’s Night with my friend, Jamie Bollinger. Sitting in a women’s event at Victory Hamilton Mill, Holy Spirit spoke to me in a moment of the service that initially I questioned. “Me? Now? Here?” He responded, “Yes.” It was in that moment just after a beautiful time of fellowship, worship, & such a timely word that Pastor Lisa called for women who are surrendered to take their next step and be baptized….tonight! That moment right there….that was the moment when Holy Spirit said “Move. Now.”
So, here is my story.
I grew up in church. I accepted Jesus at a young age and was baptized. My life consisted of being involved in ministry and “doing church.” In my mid twenties, I began to live pretty much a dual lifestyle. I was one way around my church friends and another way around my party friends. I found myself in a relationship that started a spiral of sin in my life. At the end of me in 2013, I dedicated my life back into the loving and relentless chase of a beautiful Savior that rescued and redeemed every piece of me. My life was changed forever in that moment. Over the past 10 years I have been on a journey of surrender and healing. God has restored so many jaded and broken places of my heart. Life and circumstances have not always been easy, but my foundation has been secure in who He is and who He says that I am. I have been connected to a beautiful body of believers at The Pointe over the past 8 years. I am thankful for the leadership and discipleship of Pastor Chad & Danette Smith! It is under that leadership that God has restored my heart and given me fresh vision for ministry. There have been multiple times over the past year that I have had thoughts of being baptized again. Honestly, I never followed through because I allowed fear (because of my weight) to keep me from that beautiful moment.
Back to that night, in that moment of the baptism call and Holy Spirit saying “Move. Now.” I moved. Tears flowing. Heart pounding. Every step, a step of obedience that ended in a beautiful dip of surrender that has forever changed my life. I believe this step has set me on a new path of walking out the Lord’s “more” He has always had for me.
I can’t explain it. I honestly can not express in words the way my heart feels today. God has called me…He is calling me even deeper still. I believe with every fiber of my being that God is doing something new in His people. He is doing something new in me!
I am expectantly waiting for the greater things to come
