Why does Jesus step into the waters of baptism—and why does it matter for us today?

In this episode of The Builder’s Blueprint, Pastor Ben is joined by Bethany’s Assistant Principal, Dale Lehrke, for a thoughtful conversation centered on the baptism of Jesus and His words: “to fulfill all righteousness.” Together, they reflect on how Jesus stands in our place, fully obedient on our behalf, and how His baptism gives meaning and assurance to our own.

The discussion explores what it looks like to daily remember our baptism, the gift of stillness in a noisy and performance-driven world, and how God’s Word reshapes the way we see ourselves—not by what we achieve, but by what Christ has already done.

This episode invites listeners to slow down, rest in God’s promises, and live each day grounded in the righteousness that has been given to us in Christ.
