This review is from: Doctrine: What Christians Should Believe (Hardcover)
Unlike so many systematic theologies, which are usually as dry as a bone, I found this one highly readable. In its discussion of the trinity I was a bit surprised that they omitted the fact that the Hebrew word `elohiym' is in the plural (Gen 1:1). It covers the major doctrines of the Christian faith. It would suit beginner to intermediate Christians and group study. Chapter headings are:
1. Trinity: God is. 2. Revelation: God speaks. 3. Creation: God makes. 4. Image: God loves. 5. Fall: God judges. 6. Covenant: God pursues. 7. Incarnation: God comes 8. Cross: God dies. 9. Resurrection: God saves. 10. Church: God sends. 11. Worship: God transforms. 12. Stewardship: God gives. 13. Kingdom: God reigns.
It includes small group resources, a general index and a scripture index.
