5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Insights into Baptismal History, June 1, 2009
The author provides an review of the practice of baptism and its historical context including modern movements seeking a return to earlier practice. An example is the reference to Roguet's criticism of infant baptism that led to an experiment in 1957 France, emphasizing adult instruction and full immersion. A similar emphasis is represented by a more recent movement, the New Catechumen Way founded by Kiko Arguello and endorsed by the Papacy.
