It had become highly suspect at the Greenbelt Festival two years ago. There were all sorts of warnings. It's a classic example of non-accountability and the danger of moving away from New Testament norms. I want to give full credit to the Archbishop of Canterbury. I thoroughly respect cathedral worship at its best, but it's not something that does much for me.
Worship needs to balance exuberance and reverence.
It shows the hunger for spirituality. Yes, we're seeing quite a lot of adults being converted and baptised. I've often immersed people in the river. But if they certify that the child is weak it shall suffice to pour water upon it. Strong on baptism but relaxed on the mode of its administration.
