Foundation and Authority is a primer intended to introduce young people and adults to the Westminster Confession of Faith which will hopefully encourage further study. The Confession contains the basic Christian doctrines especially highlighted within the Reformed Faith. It contains the system of doctrine as embraced by the Presbyterian Church in America. It would be a suitable study or read for a communicant's class, as introductory comments for a course in The Confession. Parents could use it for family devotions. By including the actual text of The Confession, along with the comments, the book could be an important part of a discipleship strategy. To be a kingdom disciple requires believing, knowing, and understanding certain basics about the Bible, God, Christ, man, salvation, the church, and eschatology.

Foundation and Authority is rooted in the Scriptures as the only infallible rule for faith and life. For those who tend to be intimidated at the sound of studying doctrine, this book will assist you in beginning that most important process. It will better help you articulate or explain why you believe what you believe.
