What is Baptism? (R.C. Sproul)

In this short (70-page) booklet, renowned pastor and author R.C. Sproul provides an introduction to baptism, a topic that has (regrettably) divided Christians for hundreds of years. He looks at:
- Baptism and Salvation
- John's Baptism and Jesus' Baptism
- The Sign of the Covenant
- The Meaning of Baptism
- The Mode of Baptism
- The Case for Infant Baptism

This was a great introduction for the unfamiliar to this topic. It doesn't go into too much detail, but he does give helpful context/backstory on a number of matters. A lot of this I had heard before, but some explanations and references were new and intriguing. I wish it was a more in-depth treatment of the topic, but it's a great starting point.
