Excellent overview of theology and doctrine. Concise, readable and covers more than the normal Calvinistic TULIP. I especially enjoyed the chapters on adoption, perseverance of the saints, and the Holy Spirit. This book would serve as a great tool to help those who might feel intimidated by theological lingo. Kennedy breaks down crucial doctrines in a very understandable way, yet he gives a thorough enough explanation to leave one with a fairly solid understanding of these doctrines. Wonderful book for new believers or for believers who haven't been exposed to deep theological preaching.

I first read this more than twenty years ago. It is still the best, simple introduction to Reformed Theology that I have ever read. It is practical and at the same time profound.
