Next Steps
ARE YOU READY FOR A NEW START WITH GOD?
Water Baptism
Water baptism is a remarkable testament to your public confession of your faith in, and commitment to, Jesus Christ. If you would like to be water baptized, please make sure that you have attended Growtrack and the water baptism class. If you need more information, please fill out the information below and someone will contact you within the next 1-2 business days.
Growtrack
Join us for Growtrack, a four-week journey to inspire, equip, and connect you. We want our church family to discover their God-given purposes and understand how each one has unique gifts and talents designed to strengthen the Church and community. Growtrack happens every week, with the introductory session occurring on the first Sunday of the month. It is held in our Growtrack room at 11:15 AM. We invite you to jump in at any time!
Life Groups
There is more to being a Christian than just attending a church service. It involves being a part of His family and having a deeper and personal relationship with our Heavenly Father. You CAN be a part of a small Bible Study to dive deeper into scripture. You CAN join a Life Group that is connection-focused, Bible-driven, and prayer-centered. You CAN take classes to be a better steward of your money, learn money management skills, enhance your marriage with a couple’s class, and engage in other vital classes that pertain to your current place in life.
Daily Devotion
Being in God’s Word every single day is our true desire for you. Our daily devotionals are a tool for you to use. You CAN get our 3-month Devotional Books at the Welcome Center during any service time. You CAN also go to wordforyou.com and sign up to receive the daily devotion on your phone.
Volunteer to Serve
If you want to serve at Brightmoor, attend Growtrack. We will offer you an online assessment of Understanding Spiritual Gifts. Once you complete this, we will be able to help you use those gifts to live out God’s purpose for your life.
Membership
There is something powerful about moving beyond simply attending church. Church membership is for anyone who is ready to commit to being a part of this church and agrees with Brightmoor Church’s beliefs, strategy, and structure. If you are interested in becoming a member of Brightmoor, we ask that you attend our four-week journey, Growtrack, to learn more about membership.

“Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.”
