Basics of the Reformed Faith. A series of booklets published by P&R Publishing. Paperback, 32–64 pages, list price $3.50 to $4.99 each. Reviewed by New Horizons managing editor James W. Scott.
P&R Publishing has issued an attractive series of doctrinal booklets (about 5 3/8 by 8 1/2 inches in size) that churches can use effectively to introduce people to the distinctive teachings of the Reformed faith.
These booklets are neither superficial tracts nor ponderous tomes. They are serious, yet readable. They are just the thing to give to those who are inquiring about specific Reformed doctrines and to those who want to gain a deeper insight into them. Every church would do well to have a supply in their literature rack or library. However, those who want a more comprehensive view of Reformed theology would do well to look elsewhere, because even at discount prices the cost of all these booklets adds up fast.
