Rediscovering the Richness of the Reformed Faith
Edited by David G. Hagopian, Foreword by R. C. Sproul
The Reformed faith is a rich tapestry of biblical understanding that encompasses all of thought and life. Those who embrace that understanding find it to be practical and life-changing—reformation for the sake of transformation. This book—a call to rediscover the richness of the Reformed faith—provides in one volume a fresh and enlightening look at four crucial biblical concerns:
Conversion — Douglas J. Wilson
The Covenant — Douglas M. Jones III
The Church — Roger Wagner
The Christian Life — David G. Hagopian
ENDORSEMENTS
"Newcomers to Reformed thinking will be introduced to the wonderful majesty and unity of the great doctrines of the faith. Long-time members . . . will be able to fill in the gaps in their understanding." —Marvin Olasky
"[The book’s ] organization . . . its clarity, and its fidelity to the basics of the Reformed faith are excellent, and I can readily imagine its becoming a standard text." —E. Calvin Beisner
"This is a good, solid introduction to a distinctively Reformed way of understanding the Christian faith. It is refreshing to read something geared toward a basic introduction to the reformed faith that doesn't have "TULIP" in the title or isn't exclusively about either soteriology (theology of salvation) or the sovereignty of God (though both are ably discussed). Particularly refreshing is Doug Jones's discussion on the centrality of covenant as it is truly the key to understanding the totality of reformed distinctives.
"As the most basic doctrines of the Christian faith (those universally held by Bible-believing Christians) are either assumed or briefly mentioned but not expounded upon or defended I believe this book will be particularly helpful for evangelicals who are curious about all things "reformed" but who already have a background in the faith. I would not hesitate to give this book to a thoughtful Christian layperson who wanted to know the basic distinctives of what Reformed theology espouses and I would certainly choose to hand this out over any other basic introduction I have read. - D. Glover
