Commendations
“One of the great advantages of this book, as with others by the same author, is that it is clear, succinct and well presented. There is a wealth of material poured into its pages and anybody can readily tap that wealth and use the material to develop further study for themselves.”

I have always enjoyed Kevins books without exception. It is so informative and set out in a way that will help you to study and understand. We have so missed the mark of how the church should be, I highly recommend this book.
