Not every Christian needs to attend seminary, but there are certain biblical teachings that every Christian should know. Theology is crucial because our beliefs shape our actions. Whether you are a relatively new believer in Jesus or a mature Christian seeking a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of the faith, "Christian Beliefs" is designed for you.

This readable guide to twenty essential Christian beliefs is a condensed version of Wayne Grudem's award-winning book "Systematic Theology," which is highly regarded by pastors and teachers worldwide. Grudem and his son, Elliot, have distilled the core of Christian theology for the layperson, making it both clear and applicable to daily life. You will learn about the Bible, the attributes of God, the meaning of being created in God's image, Christ's work on our behalf, the purpose of the church, and much more. Each chapter includes questions for personal review or group discussion.

"These truly are twenty basic beliefs that every Christian should know," writes R. Albert Mohler Jr., President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. "Wayne Grudem is a master teacher with the ability to explain profound truths in simple language. He is a man of deep conviction and theological passion, and those who read this book will be both educated and encouraged in the faith."

J. I. Packer, a renowned theologian from Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia, states, "Based on Systematic Theology, this summary will certainly help beginners with Christ to get the hang of their faith."

John Piper, the pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, adds, "As Wayne Grudem's Systematic Theology contracts into a compact book, I do not lose my enthusiasm for the truth he loves and the clarity of his words."

In summary, "Christian Beliefs" is a concise and accessible resource that will deepen your understanding of the core tenets of the Christian faith, equipping you to live out your beliefs with greater intentionality and conviction.
