Welcome to a Reformed Church

Rev. Danny Hyde, who is the pastor of the Oceanside URC, has a new book soon to be released (March 15).

Here's the blurb from the publisher (Reformation Trust--a division of Ligonier Ministries).  This is a very helpful book and highly recommended for anyone considering attending a Reformed/Presbyterian Church.

“Who are these guys?” That was the question the teenage Daniel R. Hyde posed to his father when he first encountered “Reformed” believers. With their unique beliefs and practices, these Christians didn’t fit any of the categories in his mind. 

Not so many years later, Hyde is now Rev. Daniel R. Hyde, a pastor of a Reformed church. Recognizing that many are on the outside looking in, just as he once was, he wrote Welcome to a Reformed Church: A Guide for Pilgrims to explain what Reformed churches believe and why they structure their life and worship as they do. 

In layman’s terms, Rev. Hyde sketches the historical roots of the Reformed churches, their scriptural and confessional basis, their key beliefs, and the ways in which those beliefs are put into practice. The result is a roadmap for those encountering the Reformed world for the first time and a primer for those who want to know more about their Reformed heritage.

I just finished Horton's God of Promise, which was fabulous but too in depth for the reader with only a passing interest - such as family members who look at me funny. I wonder if Hyde's book will be more accessible to them...?

Dr. Riddlebarger, thanks so much for this site - I've learned so much from your resources here.

Sounds like something I need to read! I get too many funny looks from people when they find out what church I go to and what I believe in! Maybe the book would help me better articulate what I believe in...

Now if he'd just reveal the secret about how to find a good Reformed church here in the Northeast...
