Doctrine isn't just for theologians - it's important for every Christian because it shows us who God is and how we should live. Systematising the robust theology that has undergirded Dr. John MacArthur's well-known preaching ministry for decades, this overview of basic Christian doctrine is comprehensive in scope yet written to be accessible to the average reader - with non-technical vocabulary, minimal footnotes and a helpful bibliography.

One does not have to agree with the esteemed authors on every subject to be thankful for a volume of rich and enduring importance."
- Iain H. Murray, Author, Founding Trustee, Banner of Truth Trust
