"This is the first effort to compile a single directory of historical information of the Christian Reformed Church in North America (www.crcna.org), a denomination of 280,000 members with congregations in the United States and Canada, but particlarly numerous in Michigan, Ontario, California, and Iowa."--Preface

Want to know what's different about the Reformed/Presbyterian faith and how having a Reformed perspective can change your life? This brief overview is a useful guide for inquirers, new Christians, small groups, education classes, those making profession of faith, and more. The four chapters include useful sidebars that provide interesting tidbits, explain terms, and suggest shortcuts for those with limited time. Each chapter concludes with open-ended discussion questions that encourage reflection and investigation.

Includes the text of the latest translation of the Heidelberg Catechism (1975, updated 1988) approved by the Christian Reformed Church. Scripture references are listed in footnotes.

The authors have devised an exciting way to introduce three- to - seven year olds to the wonder of worship. Activities are developed around the order of worship commonly used in Reformed churches: assemble in God's name; proclaim, give thanks to and go in God's name.
