As a former Presbyterian minister, I baptized two of my infants. I was sincere. It was meaningful. I believed that infant baptism (paedobaptism) was biblical. However, I was sincerely and biblically wrong.
Now, I am convinced that the baptism authorized by the Bible is the baptism of disciples. In fact, I believe the Bible authorizes the baptism of disciples alone. This position may also be called credobaptism, from the Latin verb credo, meaning believe or trust. Other designations are believer’s baptism, confessor’s baptism, or professor’s baptism, all synonyms describing the baptism of disciples alone. Hoping to be gracious toward my paedobaptist friends and mentors, the purpose of this book is to prove that the Bible authorizes only disciple’s baptism. This book is also written, however, to help parents, pastors and laymen better understand the Baptist position for credobaptism versus paedobaptism so they can decide which local church to join and serve in.

However, I struggled with the audiobook format, as the performance adds an unintended arrogant tone that detracts from the earnestness with which Malone seems to have approached the subject. While the text itself is infused with love and a sincere desire to clarify these crucial issues, the delivery did not align with that sentiment. For me, this created a dissonance that made it difficult to fully engage with the material in an audio format.
Despite this, I would highly recommend the printed version of the book for those interested. The written word allows for a more personal and reflective reading experience, which is essential when grappling with such a significant topic. Additionally, the appendices included in the book are equally valuable, providing further context and supporting information that enhances the overall argument.
In summary, while "Baptism of Disciples Alone" is a resource worth exploring, I believe that reading the paper version will offer a more profound and nuanced understanding than the audiobook version does.
Valuable but you may prefer the text version.
