Justin Holcomb is an Episcopal priest and a professor of theology and Christian thought at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and Reformed Theological Seminary. This book provides a helpful introduction to the early theology of the church and how that theology developed as it explains centuries of creeds, councils, catechisms, and confessions.

This is a good book to help the reader (or an adult study group) understand how the creeds were developed and what they contain and then how the later councils have continued to impact our current theology. KNOW THE CREEDS AND COUNCILS is designed for personal study or classroom use, small groups, or Sunday school classes who want to understand more about the foundations of their faith. Each chapter covers a key statement of faith and includes a discussion of its historical context, a simple explanation of the statement's content and key points, reflections on contemporary and ongoing relevance, and discussion questions.

I think this would be an interesting Bible Study type book! I wish my technology had kept a copy of this for future reference!

I apologize but I will no longer be able to read and review this book.
Best wishes to the author and publisher.
