• In my continuing effort to study denominational differences, I bought this book the other day.  It lists all the major Christian denominations, and breaks down the denominations within the denomination over such areas of the history, the Bible, God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, governance, sin and salvation, and sacraments.  I put together a comparison chart in a Word.doc of what I think are eight of the most common churches in the area.  If you would like a copy of this comparison chart, just email me.  I would post it, but I’m fear I might be violating some kind of copyright law.  Don’t think of it as Cliff Notes, just Keith Notes.
