{"product_id":"baptism-9780687023646","title":"Baptism","description":"Few issues within the church are as controversial as baptism. By which method should it be administered? At what age? What if one changes denominations? Laurence H. Stookey sifts through the confusion and rhetoric to offer this practical, biblically sound guide to baptism. He examines the sacrament from historical, theological, and pastoral perspectives, and looks at how it has been altered through the ages. Dr. Stookey also suggests possible reforms, practices that need restoring, and proper occasions for the service.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurence Hull Stookey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Abingdon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/1982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.04w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780687023646\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eStookey, Laurence Hull:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Laurence Hull Stookey is Professor Emeritus of Preaching and Worship, Wesley Theological Seminary, Washington, D.C., and Pastor of Asbury United Methodist Church in Allen, MD.
