Jesus taught that the most powerful of God's gifts often comes in small packages -- like a mustard seed of faith. This book from Bishop Gideon Thompson is no exception. It is small, but oh, so powerful! Within its pages, you will find the deepest truths of Systematic Theology distilled into a single, easy-to-read volume. Thompson has done a great service for Christians who desire to grow in their understanding of The Faith by providing a concise, understandable reference of what we believe and why. Bishop Thompson is the founding pastor of Jubilee Christian Church in Boston, the largest local church in New England. As the Presiding Prelate over the network of churches called Church Without Walls, International, he provides pastoral care and oversight to pastors in the United States, India, Egypt, and other African nations. He holds a bachelor's degree from Moody Bible Institute, a master's from the Boston University School of Theology and a doctorate from the Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. He and his wife Yvonne have been happily married since 1967; have eight grown children, all of whom are mature believers significantly involved in the work of the Church, and thirty-four (34) grandchildren.
