As pastors Erica, Sarah, and Steve continue to explore the sacrament of Holy Baptism, this time we'll look at how Christian practice has developed, deepened, changed, and grown over the centuries. Along the way, we'll pick up questions from throughout Christian history about the how, when, and why of baptism, things like: does it matter how much water is used when I'm baptized? Do I have to be a certain age, have a certain mental capacity, or be able to remember the event of being baptized? What if the person who baptized me ends up leaving the faith or committing some terrible sin? What about being baptized by proxy for someone who is deceased? Why did people in an earlier time sometimes hold off on being baptized until they were on their deathbed? All of these questions and more are up for discussion on this week's episode of Crazy Faith Talk!
