This is Baptism of the Lord Sunday and the gospel reading for this week is Matthew 3:13-17.

I decided to share some of my thoughts on the sacrament of baptism. I'll spend some time talking about the differences between Christians over time about what the best way is to baptize. I'll reflect on what baptism signifies for us. I'll finish by expressing some of my concerns about living out our baptismal faith.

Remember...

...baptism is not a box to check off. It is not an ending. It is the beginning of a life-long journey!
