Ep. #328 "How to Know When Someone Is Ready for Baptism"

In this episode of Dear Church, Chris talks with JD Schwartz, youth minister at Graymere Church of Christ, about one of the most important questions parents and ministers face: When is a young person ready for baptism? Together they discuss how to discern spiritual readiness, the role of parents in guiding their children, and why rushing or delaying baptism can both bring challenges. Drawing from JD's decades of experience working with teens and families, this conversation offers wisdom and encouragement for anyone navigating this crucial step of faith.   Connect with Us: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dearchurch_podcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564673680147 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DearChurch   Website: https://www.rippleoflight.org/ ROL Facebook: http://facebook.com/rippleoflight ROL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rippleoflight ROL YouTube: http://youtube.com/rippleoflight ROL Rumble: http://rumble.com/rippleoflight   Have a question?
