In this episode, we’re talking with Associate Professor of Practical Theology, Irma Fast Dueck. Join us as we talk about baptism, membership, and young people in the church. Why are young people leaving the church? Why are young Christians choosing not to be baptized? What does positive faith formation look like?

Irma is the Associate Professor of Practical Theology at Canadian Mennonite University. She has done extensive research on young people in the church, baptism, cohabitation, and marriage. She is also active in the life of the church and is a sought-after speaker for conferences, retreats, and churches.
