FOLLOW JESUS
Making a personal commitment to follow Jesus is the very first next step anyone should take if they want to pursue a life with God. What does it mean to make a commitment to follow Jesus? It means you’ve learned enough to be able to say the following things:
I have sin in my life and I want to become more like Jesus. The only way for that to happen is for me to make Him Lord of my life. I trust Jesus as my Savior and today I commit to follow Him.
BAPTISM
Followers of Jesus publicly express their faith by being baptized. Going down into the waters of baptism signifies the end of your old life without God, and coming up out of the waters signifies you’ve been born again with new life as a follower of Jesus! Baptism is the perfect next step for…
A new follower of Jesus or someone who has been following Jesus for any amount of time but has never been baptized.
Someone who was baptized previously (as an infant, child, or otherwise) but not subsequent to their personal decision to follow Jesus.
STARTING POINT
If you’re new to faith, just checking it out, or coming back to church after some time away, Starting Point is a great next step. Starting Point is a short-term conversational small group environment where you can explore faith and experience community. It’s a place where your beliefs and opinions are valued, and where no question is off limits.

BECOME PART OF THE FAMILY
We believe the local church should be a family. Families worship, learn, and serve together. We aren’t perfect but we strive for excellence in creating a loving, warm, and welcoming family environment. You don’t have to be a member to attend Coastal, but if you believe in the vision and mission, we invite you to take a commitment step in becoming an official member.
An official member of the Coastal family is…
A committed follower of Jesus.
Someone who has been baptized.
A graduate of Coastal Connect.

LIFEgroups / Get Connected
At Coastal, we say that “LIFEgroups are the heartbeat of our church.” In the same way that the heart is one of the most important muscles in our body and it pumps nutrient rich blood throughout every part of it, LIFEgroups help members of the Coastal body by providing a place for community, learning, and spiritual growth. LIFEgroups are small groups of people who are excited to do “LIFE” together.
