Does it matter what I believe? - Millard J Erickson

What the Bible Teaches and Why We Should Believe It
by Millard J. Erickson

If Jesus is the Lord of our faith, then believing what he teaches does matter - a lot!

The basics of Christian faith are carefully presented and applied . To make the summary more useful as a group study guide, there are study questions and suggestions for each chapter.

Published in 1992 but still worth it if you can get hold of it.
