This user-friendly guide is written to help laypersons and new believers learn the basics of Christian theology, or why we believe what we believe. Tsoukalas explains the basic theological doctrines of the Christian faith and explores their relevance in simple and plain language, thus making theology more accessible to young people, new Christians, and Sunday school and small-group study participants.

The Structure of Christian Faith 101 allows readers to proceed at their own pace. Each chapter includes a "Basics" and "Beyond the Basics" section, followed by discussion questions, and concludes with meditation and prayer. The "Basics" sections offer new Christians the most basic tenets of Christian faith, while the "Beyond the Basics" sections will introduce readers to more advanced concepts of the Trinity, the Atonement, sanctification, resurrection, and heaven. Also, includes a glossary of theological terms for quick and easy reference.
