For over forty years Dr. Jay Adams has been calling God’s people back from their dalliance with unbiblical psychological theory to a renewed confidence in the power of the Holy Spirit and the sufficiency of God’s Word to equip the man of God to help his people with problems of living and relationship. At approximately age fifteen he was born again in response to the reading of a New Testament that was given to him by a friend. He received his formal training at Reformed Episcopal Seminary (B.D.), Johns Hopkins University (A.B.), Pittsburgh-Xenia Seminary, Temple University School of Theology (M.ST.), and the University of Missouri (Ph.D.). He pastored churches in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, served as a professor at Westminster Theological Seminary, and as the director of the Doctoral program at Westminster Theological Seminary in California. He is also the founder of the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation in Philadelphia and the National Association of Nouthetic Counselors.

After an introductory section that lays some groundwork, Adams has divided the book into 8 parts: The Bible, God, Man & Sin, Salvation, Living the Christian Life, The Church, Heresy, Unbelief & Controversy, and Fulfilled Prophecy & Eschatology. Each section has multiple chapters that are anywhere from 1 to 5 pages. Adams presents the theological discussion in a clear and concise manner that makes this book great on many levels. If a believer has little theological knowledge this would be a great book to read through and get a good overview. This would also be a good book for a sunday school class or discipleship. A leader/teacher could use Adams' layout and expand on each topic covered thus making this a jumping off point for a deeper theological study. However it would be used it would be a blessing to its readers. JP
