What exactly is it that Christians believe? Whether you are a Christian looking for a refresher course on the essentials, or an interested enquirer, this book is for you.
Clearly and crisply explaining the core beliefs of the Christian faith, and interacting with the kinds of questions on our minds, many areas of confusion are clarified, and many questions answered by this wonderfully helpful book.
Here is a sane guide to a sane confidence in Christ. Jonathan Gould is blessed with a logical mind and a loving concern for people - I especially liked his answers to important questions at the end of each chapter. I have seen many people brought out of fog into faith under his ministry and hope this book will bring many more.
-- Simon Manchester (Senior Minister, St Thomas' Anglican Church, Sydney, Australia)With unapologetic pastoral clarity, Gould reminds Christians that Christianity is not about religious sensibilities added on to an otherwise worldly life, but about radically God-centered truth that completely reorganizes our lives for his glory. The result of these two concerns is that this is a book for anyone, believer or non-believer, who not only wants to know what Christians believe, but why that belief matters
-- Michael Lawrence (Senior Pastor, Hinson Baptist Church, Portland, Oregon)What Christians Believe is material regularly used by Jonathan Gould as an introductory course for newcomers, believers and unbelievers. It has long proved its worth for those willing to think. Warmly recommended for similar use and for the church bookstall.
-- Dick Lucas (Formerly Rector of St Helen's Bishopsgate, London)What I really admired about this book was that it not only clearly and relevantly lays out the Christian faith, it also then predicts the questions that may well arise in the reader's mind and gives a compelling response to those queries. You can tell Jonathan Gould was once a lawyer!
-- Rico Tice (Author and Founder of Christianity Explored Ministries)This book is like journeying with a wise and knowledgeable tour guide...to the best of all destinations.
-- Archie Poulos (Head of Ministry Department, Moore College, Sydney)
