About this eBook

Think Christianity is for you? Wondering where to start with things like the Bible, prayer, church? Then you are who this short 4 part course booklet was written for. It covers the basic fundamentals of the faith and what it means to become a Christian. We then explore how our relationship with God grows through the Bible and prayer, and discuss the problems we may encounter. Then of course there's the matter of being part of a church. It may be all new to you, but help is at hand. Part of the Epistole Bible Study Series, by the late Dr David L Cook, it's designed for self study with the help of a mentor/leader if possible.

Ratings and reviews

Very informative, even for a Seasoned Christian. It made me think just a little bit.

Very informative....I will share this book with my children and pray they gain some insight from it....I thank God for such a wonderful book for starters.

Who, What, When, Where, Why, & How to become a Christian, simply explained. Some nice links; But, I do not recommend the Alpha info.

About the author

Dr David L Cook ( 1932 - 2013) was a highly experienced Scottish educationalist and Bible teacher. He worked in education all his life, first as a classics teacher, and then secondary school headmaster. He studied the Bible continually throughout his life, and was familiar with NT Greek and also Hebrew. As well as his MA in the classics, he obtained both a BD and a PhD in Theology. From a young man until his late 70s, he travelled all over Scotland, and beyond, preaching and teaching, mainly in Brethren churches. He wrote several Bible Study booklets, which he had hoped to revise and make available, but he passed away before that work was completed. His family have completed that work and the studies are now available as the Epistole Bible Study Series.
