Shane Lems (MDiv, Westminster Seminary California) is pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church (OPC) in Hammond, Wisconsin. He has worked as a curriculum editor at Crossroads Bible Institute in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and as a pastor and church planter in the United Reformed Churches (URCNA).
"Christian parents have the great blessing of raising their
children in the fear of the Lord. They also have a great
responsibility. This is where they often get stuck, feeling totally
inadequate to the task. In this little book, Shane Lems comes
alongside to assist. He lays out some of the basic doctrines of our
churches, where they are found clearly in Scripture, and why they
matter. I pray God uses it to raise up a new generation of godly
leaders and servants."--Daniel R. Hyde, Pastor, Oceanside United
Reformed Church
"Pastor Lems' slim volume is a marvelous introduction to some key
aspects of Reformed theology. This work admirably succeeds in
exploring doctrines deeply while also communicating in a clear,
simple, and lucid manner. It should prove to be a great asset for
training our covenant youth for many years to come."--David
VanDrunen, Robert B. Strimple professor of systematic theology and
Christian ethics, Westminster Seminary California
"Shane Lem has compiled a very well-researched and well-written
series of lessons that introduce the doctrines of grace to young
adults. This is a great resource for those who want to go deeper
into the foundation of their faith and heritage."--Stephen
Smallman, pastor and mission consultant
"A wonderful tool for individual children and youth groups, which
could be used in multitudes of homes and churches. It is well
written, faithful to the doctrines of grace, and readable enough in
order to facilitate excellent discussion on these most important
subjects with young people."--Lance Quinn, Grace Advance
"I think that reader will end up saying, "Wow, God loves me! Look
at what He has done!" I don't think this is what most readers
anticipate as they approach this topic!"--Helen Holbrook,
Children's Minister, Grace Presbyterian, Winnetka IL
If you have a hard time understanding Calvinism, TULIP, or how God
saves by grace, this primer will not only bring clarity to this
often-confusing subject, but will also instill delight and
thanksgiving in your soul! I highly recommend it!--Brian H. Cosby,
author of Giving Up Gimmicks: Reclaiming Youth Ministry from an
Entertainment Culture and Rebels Rescued: A Student's Guide to
Reformed Theology
Shane Lems tackles some of the weightiest (and often misunderstood)
doctrines of the Reformed Christian faith, and does so with
simplicity, clarity, and grace. This is a concise and clear
introduction to the doctrines of grace for young people who are
serious about God's Word and about the glorious gospel of Jesus
Christ. I commend it to you.--Jon Nielson, Pastor for Senior High,
College Church, Wheaton
