review 1: A concentrated dose of Reformed theology lively presented. Kevin DeYoung explains the fundamentals of the Christian faith by systematically elaborating on the Heidelberg Catechism, originally published in 1563. It truly is better than it sounds! The catechism--which will be new to many--is illuminating and hard-hitting. DeYoung's accompanying prose amplifies the catechism's message and connects it to the contemporary world, making its continuing relevance plain to see.
review 2: A very good entry level read on the Heidelberg Catechism. Would be good to use for study in a high school class, with the average church member who does not have a lot of theological background, or a read aloud and discussion for family devotions. DeYoung has good understanding of b
... moreasic reformed theology. He also has a great concern that his people grow in holiness. Both the theology and the piety are held in balance throughout the book. He keeps the chapters short and to the point, which makes it easily accessible. He does not dive in deep, but what he gives you is solid and gets you headed in the right direction. less
