Description
Book Synopsis People ask the strangest things in Christian books - a pocket sized large print Bible or maybe a profound leader's guide for instant Bible studies! A few moments thought would make us realise how silly we can be ... does a really interesting book on Christian doctrine come into the same category?
God is the most interesting person you could know, so why did you ever doubt it could be done?
Trade Review'Whenever Larry Dixon writes about doctrine, it's very understandable AND practical. He writes in a way that not only satisfies your intellect, but warms your heart and motivates you to action.'
-- Dr. George W. Murray, President, Colombia International University, South Carolina, USA
'Larry Dixon has a marvelous facility with words, making profound concepts appear straightforward. Covering the entire scope of Christian theology as he does, the reader is teased along to richer territories effortlessly. For Christians who want a primer on the basics of Christian theology, this is the book to read.'
-- Derek W.H. Thomas, Reformed Theological Seminary (Senior Minister of Preaching and Teaching, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina)
'In today's sitcom-stupid society, wisecracking can sometimes still stab awake people, especially young people, whom anything else would send to sleep. So there is a real job out there for this jokey-sober workbook on Christian Foundations to do.'
-- J.I. Packer, Regents College, Vancouver, British Colombia ((1926–2020), Board of Governors’ Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, Canada)
Dr. Dixon is a systematic theologian, and his material is well organized. Hence the ease with which a reader makes his way through the book. I recommend the book to Christians who want to know what to believe - and to theologians too!
-- C. Donald Cole, Moody Broadcasting Network
There is a widespread flight from theology in our churches. The result? - a merely ‘feel good' Christianity, spiritually flabby, weak as water. We must, must, must, get Christians to study Bible doctrine. We should work hard at getting this book into the hands of family members, giving it to our youth group members, commending it from our pulpits.
-- Dr Geoffrey Grogan, Former Principal Emeritus, Glasgow Bible College ( (1925-2011), Principal of Glasgow Bible College and well-respected author)
