Catholic Book Review (⭐ Rating: 2.5/5)
From a Catholic perspective, Gerald Birney’s A Guide to the Study of the Christian Religion represents an early 20th-century attempt to approach Christianity from a more modernist, academic angle.

While the book contains valuable historical and philosophical insights, it unfortunately lacks the fullness of Catholic teaching, often reducing Christianity to sociological or critical studies. Readers seeking a truly faith-affirming presentation of Christian doctrine will not find it here.

⭐ Strengths: Helpful background on religious studies, historical perspective.
⚠ Weaknesses: Strong modernist tendencies, absence of Catholic doctrinal grounding.

📖 Verdict: A book worth knowing for its place in religious study history, but Catholic readers should approach with caution.
