“How Should We View Our Children in the Church, by Joel Beeke, is a brief and concise exposition of a paedobaptist and Reformed perspective of children and the covenant. Marvelously concise and practical, this is an ideal gift for parents bringing their children for baptism. There are treasures here to encourage parents in the task of nurturing children for Jesus.” — Derek W. H. Thomas, senior minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina
