Hello,
I am a newly ordained priest and part of my ministry is teaching a course on the sacraments in our local Catholic high school. I need to be out of town for a couple of days for another event and I’m looking for some good material, preferably video, audio, or podcast, detailing why we as Catholics practice infant Baptism.
What I am NOT looking for is anything that could be taken in any way to be demeaning to Protestants. Obviously, I love the Church, I agree with the Church on this matter, and my goal is to convince my students to believe in the need for infant baptism as well. But, with this particular group, I do not think the most prudent way to approach the matter is something that explicitly illustrates the differences between Catholicism and some branches of Protestantism. I also do not want something, that, for lack of a better way of putting it, is boring. Yes, truth is truth, but if it is presented in a dull way, the students will tune it out. I’m preferably looking for something from a dynamic youth speaker who is faithful to the magisterium (i.e. Jason Evert, Chris Stefanick, Mary Beth Bonnaci, Christopher West, etc.)
So, in conclusion, what I am looking for is electronic media, appropriate for high school juniors, that discusses infant baptism, but baptism in general would be acceptable.
Thanks for anything you can recommend!
