The Westminster Standards have long been the confessional benchmark of Presbyterian churches the world over. Many today, however, consider them to be shallow, ignorant, over-systemized documents. Muller and Ward take a fresh look at the Standards, placing them in their historical context and presenting useful background to help modern-day readers understand these important documents. - Publisher.

The Westminster Assembly of Divines convened in Westminster Abbey during the time of the Long Parliament, 1643-1648. Commissioned originally to bring clarity to the theological convictions of the Church of England, the Assembly of Divines drafted several important documents that would also influence the Church of Scotland, and the Puritan movement in general. Among those documents were the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Westminster Shorter Catechism, the Larger Catechism, and a Directory for Public Worship. Though lesser used today than the other documents, the Directory for Public Worship nevertheless gives churches a strong and reliable guide for ordering public worship services, including the administration of the sacraments, in the Reformed Tradition.
