I read this book as part of my Sunday school class. Adam Hamilton does an excellent job of breaking down the Apostle’s Creed (or a version of) that we recite to end our worship service. It was edifying to read and discuss each section. I highly recommend this book for new Christians and those who may just saying it as rote.
