Why Do Anglicans Baptize Babies?

from Anglican Church of the Incarnation - Richmond, Virginia · host Church of the Incarnation, Richmond, Virginia

Why do Anglicans baptize babies while some other Christian traditions do not? In this edition of Ask the Church, we explore how these differences flow from an understanding about the nature of baptism itself—whether it is primarily a human symbol or a sacramental action of God. Drawing on Scripture and biblical parallels with circumcision, we see that infants are included in the covenant while still being called to grow into faith and obedience.📩 Have a question for a future episode?
