Rich Baxter has filled an important gap by writing this short, 16-page booklet specifically written for guests at baptism services. Rich takes the two biblical images of dying/rising and being washed, and shows how they help us understand the meaning of baptism, and what it means to become a Christian. There are then some suggestions for learning more, and an opportunity to respond in prayer.

The whole booklet is clear, engaging and accessible, and would be suitable to give out en masse to a mix of guests. And the font size is suitable for people with a mix of eyesights - an often overlooked factor in Christian giveaway resources!

It's been a few years since our last baptism, but I am praying for an opportunity to use these soon!

This is a great resource, even for an infant baptist who has occasion to baptise adults by full immersion. Well written and witty. Does the job it needs to.
