The IVP Bible Study, "Christian Beliefs" by Stephen Eyre is an excellent introduction or review of what C.S. Lewis called "Mere Christianity." While the study does not break any new ground covering the basic Christian Doctrines, it does give individuals a solid biblical basis for the doctrines that have developed within Christianity. Thus connecting doctrine to its scriptural origin.

As an added plus the PDF means of delivery reduces the cost of such material to small churches seeking to be good stewards of limited funds. By forgoing the shiny cover art of the readily available published study, the IVP PDF can immediately save funds. Instead of paying approx. $7.50 per study, the PDF allows printing of up to 1000 copies for a total outlay of less than $50.00. So for the price of seven studies, some paper and toner, you can provide a superior resource for your congregation and ministry.

I am really enjoying this bible study with my group. The information is powerful. The study makes it easy to bring everything together, to be able to understand it, and to relate it to real life. Sometimes bible studies are just too difficult and this one is not. I have learned a lot and I enjoy studying it together with other people.

I have purchased several books in this series and our Senior Sunday School class enjoys them. Easy to use and good questions.
