A twenty-page booklet on the Apostles' Creed published by the Marcham Manor Press in the early 1970s (Bradshaw's bibliography gives 1972, Open Library 1973). Packer's exposition of the Creed later forms the first part of I Want to Be a Christian (1977), reissued as Growing in Christ; whether this booklet is the same text was not established.
