GoodBookStall Review:
Originally published 2005 and reviewed 2007
This book is easily read and gives important pointers to those who seek further explanation of their belief or to new believers. Each chapter sets out to explain the rudimentary Christian understanding of such topics as what is the bible, what is the Trinity, what of creation, resurrection and so on. The whole gamut of belief and understanding is covered in short pithy explanations and gives also, at the end of each chapter, some review questions and answers just to make sure we have understood. In case those who read it feel that not enough explanation is given, then let me assure you that the author has condensed his greater work Systematic Theology which 1290 pages long. So, if nothing else, this short book is a testimony to the editorship of his son. The book is aimed at new Christians who seek further answers, to study groups and classes and for home use.
