Very good study of the Apostle's Creed, 2008-04-14
Very well written, in-depth study of the Apostle's Creed. We're using it as a group study. br / br /The book has divided the Creed into six main sections, designed for each one to be an evening's study. Each section looks at the biblical foundations (references are found throughout), deals with some common questions, and explains ideas that may be often confusing. Then it works with the relevance of each section to daily life. Some proposed study questions are listed near the end of each chapter, followed by suggestions for further reading. br / br /To use this as a group study, it would help to do some homework, at least to read through the section before the study. The text is a little long to just read through as a group. It isn't a "fill in the blanks" study. Rather, it's a thorough discussion with a few guiding questions at the end.

Discover the basis of this statement of faith, 2006-03-07
We are using this book in a Small Group study. The author's insight into both the scriptural basis for the statements in the Creed and the historical development and context for the Creed is excellent. We're learning a lot...

My favorite on the Creed overall, 2005-03-02
Concise, inexpensive, nicely packaged, clearly written. And by someone who is both highly competent (Oxford prof.) and actually believes the Creed is true. The study questions at the end of each chapter, and teh non-techical approach make this idea for small group discussion or a c.e. class. br / br /Overall, this would be my first choice. For those who want more words and a slightly more pugnacious approach, also get Michale Horton We Believe. For a GREAT intro., and some other good insights, by a Catholic scholar who is less orthodox than McGrath -- Luke Timothy Johnson's new The Creed (2003) is a good second choice. For a variety of moderately liberal and neo-orthodox perspectives, and a mix of theological and sermonic materials, check out the new Van Harn, ed., Exploring and Proclaiming The Apostles' Creed (2004). But get McGrath first. br / br /

Good basic introduction to the Creed, 1999-12-10
This has been a good little book for my own personal study. It can clarify just what we mean when we say things like "I belive in the communion of saints." pHighly recommended for someone who is curious in exploring some of the basic tenets of the Christian faith. Good for group study.
