What others are saying:

"As we begin a new year, I'm looking forward to walking through this book of daily meditations. It’s easy to take the Heidelberg Catechism for granted when we hear it so often. But it isn’t just doctrine to be memorized; it's gospel comfort meant to be lived in a world full of sorrow and struggle. My prayer for this year is a deeper appreciation for the truth, and a deeper rest in the comfort it gives." - Abby VanSolkema, author of Devotions on the Gospel of John for Teens and blogger at @the.left.fork

Belonging and Comfort is a companion volume to Believing and Confessing: 365 Meditations on the Belgic Confession.
