A Kid's Guide to Baptism

Baptism is a huge milestone in the Christian Journey. As a child, understanding baptism is key in order to be baptized.

“A Kid’s Guide to Baptism” is a workbook written to help your child understand what baptism means, and reasons why they should be baptized. Your child will read through scriptures and answer some tough questions as they work through their faith and determine if they are ready to take the next step and be baptized. They will also learn how to prepare a personal testimony as they ready themselves to make a public declaration of their faith.

So Why A Baptism Workbook?

A while back I wrote an article on teaching kids about baptism. It is one of the most read articles I have written. Recently I thought about adding links to that page to resources that could help parents and churches teach their kids about baptism but I couldn’t really find any. I found a few picture books for younger kids, but that’s about it. So that is where A Kid’s Guide to Baptism came from — out of a desire to provide a quality resource for you to use with your kids to help them understand and prepare for baptism.

This workbook is written to be equal parts teaching tool, part devotional, and part journal. Once your child has completed the book, the journey and answers recorded in the pages become a keepsake and a reminder of a huge spiritual milestone in your child’s life.

What others have said:

"Parents, if you are wondering whether your child has an understanding of water baptism, and if they are ready to take the plunge, then this book is for you. As a pastor I am often asked to baptize children and Ron’s book has become my go-to resource to not only teach children about baptism but to also help me know if the child fully understands water baptism. In “A Kid’s Guide to Baptism” Ron has tackled a subject that not many have attempted to write about, and he has done an amazing job explaining baptism on a level that both children and adults will be able to understand and enjoy reading." Pastor Fred, Sr Pastor Faith Assembly

"This book does a good job explaining what baptism is, but would also be something someone would keep long term because of the ability to record their journey." Pastor Ben Christensen
