Christian Basics: Beginnings, Beliefs, and Behavior

Christian Basics has become a classic as both an accessible introduction to the Christian faith and a refresher course in Christianitys essentials. First published more than forty years ago, this affordable new edition has been completely redesigned. It includes end-of-chapter study guides and suggestions for further reading, and full-color photographs accent every chapter. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, respected author and preacher John Stott is well-equipped to answer your questions about the Christian faith, including: What is Christianity all about? What does a Christian believe? How do I live as a Christian in a complex world? Stott explains that Christianity revolves around the person of Jesus Christ and our relationship to him. He provides summaries of Christian beliefs, structured around an affirmation of the three persons of the Trinity, and explains how to build up spiritual strength through a disciplined life in the Spirit. Christian Basics is an excellent resource for adult education as well as new believer and new member classes. It also makes a meaningful gift for baptisms, confirmations, and professions of faith.
