Disappointing Review by Eileen Frank

The books seemed good, but then the authors/editors list the Our Father, however, the include the doxology that Protestants use in the Lord's Prayer, but Catholics do not include in the Our Father, now I have to worry, what other items have errors in them. Are they teaching us incorrect material?
