For the goals and the brevity of this book, it's excellent. Naturally, he writes from a place of low church evangelicalism, so there's not room to entertain every Catholic/Orthodox position, but when he does invite those conversations, he does so from a plain, well-cited stance. Everything is well-cited, which is another reason to like this book. This is a survey course, and each extra-biblical footnote is a prompt for more specific study on the things the reader doubts or just wants to know more about. I wish it were deeper, but again, not the goal.
