What this episode covers
(The Baptism of Our Lord Jesus Christ - The Rev. Br. Richard Edward Helmer) We often think of baptism as a personal, private, spiritual act, with cooing babies and doting godparents. But the first baptisms were public, messy, and undeniably political. Baptism said loudly and radically that we are no longer children of empire, and it may increasingly say that again today.
