An Unforgettable Story of Life After Death "The cold voice of the
anesthesiologist recited the typical 'count backward from 10'
cadence. Darkness closed around me before he got to 7. That's when
I found out what it's like to die--and to come back from the dead."
It was a beautiful winter's day, showing no signs of what was to
come. Steve Sjogren, pastor of one of America's fastest growing
churches, went into the hospital for routine gall bladder surgery
and died--twice. What began as a tragic medical accident led to
Steve's encounter with death, an experience of unimaginable peace
and some surprises, with comforting words from God, a meeting with
an angel, and seeing those who had died before him. If you, or
someone you know, are fearful of dying, curious about heaven, or
simply desiring to live life to its fullest, this encouraging book
could change how you view life and death.
The issue of baptism has troubled Protestants for centuries. Should
infants be baptized before their faith is conscious, or does God
command the baptism of babies whose parents have been baptized?
Popular New Testament scholar Scot McKnight makes a biblical case
for infant baptism, exploring its history, meaning, and practice
and showing that infant baptism is the most historic Christian way
of forming children into the faith. He explains that the church's
practice of infant baptism developed straight from the Bible and
argues that it must begin with the family and then extend to the
church. Baptism is not just an individual profession of faith: it
takes a family and a church community to nurture a child into faith
over time. McKnight explains infant baptism for readers coming from
a tradition that baptizes adults only, and he counters criticisms
that fail to consider the role of families in the formation of
faith. The book includes a foreword by Todd Hunter and an afterword
by Gerald McDermott.
