An outstanding introduction to covenant theology … clear, concise, and accessible. Belcher’s academic experience combined with his pastoral sensitivity are evident throughout.

Well–researched and concisely written … will be the first resource I recommend to anyone wanting to learn more about covenant theology.

-- John W. Tweeddale (Vice President of Academics and Professor of Theology, Reformation Bible College, Sanford, Florida)

Belcher expertly weaves together a portrait of the biblical–theological landscape of how God has covenanted with his people into an amazingly accessible little book. This work should be a first port of call for those new to covenant theology. Belcher’s user–friendly style and irenic tone lead us into more depth than we might expect from a book so easy to read.
