I was amazed that such a thoroughly researched book could be so easy to read. I couldn't put it down. Mr. Richardson reveals the very essence of the primitive Christian faith and shows how it is even more relevant today. He explains why the Hebrew Roots movement is important and how it relates to the restoration of the Davidic kingdom and the coming of Messiah. He also shows how Jewish tradition is the foundation of many of our Christian beliefs and customs. This book not only gives a clear picture of the past, but also shows how rediscovering the roots of our faith is the first step in finding true salvation.
A solid book.

The author states that the book's purpose is to explain the 'phenomenon' of Christians from every denomination being drawn to seek out their religion's origins, stripped of the dressings of modern Christian doctrines. And that is what it proceeds to do. The book gives wonderfully thought out historical-context useful to both Christians seeking a more Hebraic understanding, and other people trying to understand what's going on, or have an interest in Christianity's Hebraic origins. Rick explains why the phenomenon is happening and backs his beliefs with solid scripture and history, not in an effort to preach, but to share with people what he believes is happening. Even the more controversial topics (and believe me, they are) are solidly covered and shown in a historical light you may not have known was even possible. I give this book a five for covering exactly what it claims to in a concise and thorough way.

I was very pleased with the book Origins of Our Faith by Rick Richardson. The book is easy to read, simple to check against Scripture and provides profound insight free of a personal agenda that is not always found in current publications. Origins of Our Faith offers a unique opportunity to explore the very basics of faith. The book is certainly worth the time. Sal
Fascinating and In Depth look at the Christian Faith

It is, by far, the best book on the subject that I have ever seen. I, in fact, promoted this book. Unfortunately the company I engaged to send emails to an "opt-in" list was less than scrupulous.
