Extremely detailed. This is a textbook, basically, and would be highly recommended for seminarians, etc. I opted for this bc of the Confession of Belhar, I wanted to know about its origins, its adoptions, its place in the ecumenical world. I got more than I bargained for.

The most underrated treasure trove of Christian literature out there! Recommended "back to the basics" for any Christian. Especially those preparing for baptism.
