The Whys and Hows of Teaching the Shorter Catechism Today

Book Description

Communicating the faith to children is one of the great responsibilities of Christian parents. In this book, Terry Johnson, a father as well as a pastor, shows how the Shorter Catechism can be of great help to parents facing this vital task.

Many generations of Christian parents have found the Westminster Shorter Catechism to be one of the most effective ways of raising their children in the ‘discipline and instruction of the Lord’ (Eph. 6:4); for not only does it provide a clear explanation of the gospel, but it is still one of the best introductions to the most important doctrines of the Christian faith.

Concise, brief, informative, and above all practical, this book will be a great help and a most useful guide to parents and grandparents, pastors and Sunday-school teachers.

  1. Cory Matlock

    I absolutely agree! From the moment we started with our children on question 1, everything began to change. When I would ask them later on about God’s decrees, their answer would bring joy to my heart as they were pulling from the instruction we’d been giving them through the Westminster Shorter Catechism. We use the book Training Hearts and Teaching Minds by Star Meade. Excellent for family study!
