Excellent. Used as a discussion/discipleship guide with a group of young men.

I got this to go through with the kids; I thought it'd be a good devotional to go over the basics of the faith. It wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped. Each question is followed by a scripture, a prayer, and commentary from two theologians (typically one historical and one more modern). The doctrine tends to be more conservative than my own, and every night I found myself having to stop and say, "Well, but..." I do like the format, and I wish there was something similar for my own use. Still, if you are a conservative Christian who would like a basic introduction to the faith, you might want to take a look at it. I highly recommend finding a library copy to scan before deciding to buy it, though.

This book has been an invaluable resource in our corporate, family, and individual worship and study of God's Word. We appreciate the in-depth commentaries from historical and contemporary champions of faith as well as the simplicity of the questions and answers. I highly recommend this to all people of faith. May it be used to draw the Church closer to the Truth and God's will.

I requested an eARC of this title then later purchased the hardcover edition through our local church. The opinions expressed are my own.
