Baptism is at the heart of being Christian, and is our call to follow in the footsteps of Jesus. In the "Catholic Update Guide to Baptism," readers will find the historical basis for the sacrament, as well as the theological underpinnings of what it means to be baptized into the Catholic faith. The book is composed of three sections: What is the sacrament of baptism? The why of baptism; How we receive baptism. Each of these sections has practical advice and commentary interwoven with Church teaching, delivered in a style that is easy to read and understand. The "Catholic Update Guide to Baptism" is excellent for parents preparing to baptize their children, those in the RCIA, and for those facilitating baptism preparation. It also will be useful for general study classes on the sacraments.
