In Seeking Life: Benedictine Wisdom for the Baptized, renowned author Esther de Waal returns to the Rule of Saint Benedict--the inspiration for Seeking God, her classic book published twenty-five years ago. Here, she focuses on the prologue to the Rule and shows how it contains the clues we need to both understand and live by the vows made at our baptism. Baptism is so fundamental to our Christian identity that many congregations renew their baptismal promises each year on Easter. Yet how well do we understand the spirit and depth of those vows? How much do they shape our daily lives? Parts of the Rule of Saint Benedict are believed to be based on addresses given to those about to be--or who had recently been--baptized; they are a practical guide to "choosing the road that leads to life." With her characteristic insight and wisdom, Esther de Waal draws out enduring spiritual teaching on how to live when reborn "of water and the spirit." Read more...

Baptism Invitations – What to Remember in Planning a Baptism

A baptism is basically the formal introduction in your church of a baby to God.

Long ago, baptisms were held in private, but those days are long gone. The rules have changed and most pastors are getting used to the idea and incorporating them right into their normal church services.
