About the Contributors

Baptized but banned from the table; Christian but functionally excommunicated: 

It’s no wonder reformed evangelicals can’t keep their kids in church—we’ve already told them they don’t really belong. 

The first edition of The Case for Covenant Communion presented a fundamentally different orientation to the Table, and this second edition has added to the arsenal of arguments for practicing paedocommunion. The twelve men in these chapters will take you through the theological, historical, and pastoral implications of allowing our children to eat and drink at the Lord’s supper. The consequences are overwhelmingly generational joy.
