Mindtwister, I'm not sure about infant baptism in all denominations but I don't think that most baptize unto salvation but it's a dedication to Christ(christening). We do it because Jesus was brought to the temple by Joseph and Mary as a child and dedicated. He was later, as an adult, baptised by John the Baptist. It's a tradition not a requirement for most. The parents, godarents and others are admonished to raise the child up in the nuture and admonition of the Lord and to live godly lifestyles before them. It's understood that the children will have to be baptized at a later age to publicly align themselves with Jesus.

Oh ok that's what ya'll were talking about! Yea I knew about that; I just thought we were talking about water baptism of infant, that's why I said I didnt know non-Catholics did that

Unfortunately I wasnt able to go. I slept at 4:00am so I was too tired to get out of bederplexed

Also overall I'm feeling a bit down and lonely... I miss L.A
Which is maybe why I should have headed to church today...

What's the preaching style of your pastor is I may ask?
Does he take a topic and preach from different scriptures related to the topic?
Does he preach on one particular passage and extract a topic from it?
Does he explain verse by verse what a passage is saying?

Thanks in advance for the reply

I second First Baptist of Glenarden (though I'm not sure that it is metro accessible) I was a member there before I moved to NYC. I love that church and wished that I could find one like it here in NY.

 

[LivingDoll]

I listen every Sunday morning on my way to church.
I would rec. my church but it's in Baltimore City.

hey girl! just seeing this, but...yup. this is my church home.

I actually went there last sunday but unfortunately didn't stay through the whole sermon since I had some place to be; or so I thought cuz I arrived where I was supposed to find out the appointment was cancelled
Anyways I liked the praise and worship and overall I had a good first impression

 

[PassionFruit]

From the Heart Church Ministries has two locations. One in Temple Hills, one in Clinton both in P.G. County, Md. WWW.FTHCM.ORG Great church.

I had a co-worker whp passed away and her funeral was there because she & her husband attended... Im so busy with my own ministries but I always said I was encouraged by the sermon at the funeral and I wanted to attend a regular church service.... the funeral was at the Clinton location....

I later found out a sorta-relative also attends that church... I think the Clinton location too since she lives in Clinton

Sorry it took me so long to get back in here.
We are a bible teaching church. He is a very animated teacher. Uses his own personal experiences as examples as many ministers do. He often first makes sure we understand the context on the text. He'll give you background history up to the point where he begins his sermon. Alot of times he jumps around in the bible to different text. He does explain verse by verse as well as give you greek and latin meanings of words in the bible.

If you have questions you can always go to him and ask. We also have bible institute classes and bible study every tuesday night. U can watch sermons and bible study via the web as well.
