Book Description
Confessing the Faith Study Guide is a resource that aims to make group study easy. The questions stick closely to the text of Chad Van Dixhoorn’s Confessing the Faith and follow the chapter subheadings that you will find there. Some questions cover essential doctrines; others explore scriptural passages; still others promote personal application. Each chapter ends with a consideration for prayer.

Cat –
We have been using this Study Guide and the accompanying Commentary in a ladies bible study for the last 6 months and it has proved to be a brilliant guide through the Westminster Confession of Faith. It has helped us to discuss and understand the deep theological themes and doctrine throughout the Scriptures.
Very edifying and helps immensely in deepening our understanding of Scripture and our defense of it.
Sarah –
Emily Van Dixhoorn’s Study Guide to accompany “Confessing the Faith” has been a blessing to our family’s study of the Westminster Confession of Faith. We have been slowly working our way through “Confessing the Faith” and using the “Study Guide” to help gel the truths we learn. I greatly appreciate all the work that has gone into creating an easy-to-use accompanying guide to help us ponder the rich text of both the WCF and Chad’s book.
