Christian Basics is a classic introduction to the Christian faith and a refresher course in Christianity's essentials. Respected author and speaker John Stott explains Christian beginnings, beliefs, and behavior, how Christianity revolves around the person of Jesus Christ and a relationship to him-not a creed or code of conduct; what Christians believe, structured around an affirmation of the three persons of the Trinity; how to build spiritual strength through a disciplined life in the Spirit. This accessible guide includes end-of-chapter discussion questions, group activities, and suggestions for further reading and Bible study.

John R. W. Stott is known worldwide as a preacher, evangelist, and communicator of Scripture. For many years he served as rector of All Souls Church in London, where he carried out an effective urban pastoral ministry. A leader among evangelicals in Britain, the United States and around the world, Stott was a principal framer of the landmark Lausanne Covenant (1974). His many books, including Why I Am a Christian and The Cross of Christ, have sold millions of copies around the world and in dozens of languages. Whether in the West or in the Two-Thirds World, a hallmark of Stott's ministry has been expository preaching that addresses the hearts and minds of contemporary men and women. Stott was honored by Time magazine in 2005 as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World."
