We will use The New City Catechism (Crossway) during our Wednesday Night Kids Program. As with all good catechisms, this catechism is rooted in the Scriptures and church history.
There are 52 Questions and Answers (Q&A), one for each week of the year. Each Q&A comes with a Bible verse to meditate on, a short commentary from a past preacher, and a contemporary preacher for those who desire to study the topic further. Each Q&A also comes with a short prayer to help you pray specifically on the topic of the week. What they have essentially given you is a weekly devotional*.
We also encourage you to involve your children, not only because catechisms were originally meant to teach children about God and what the Bible says we should believe, but because The New City Catechism also has a Children's version of each Answer as well as a song* for each Q&A. Even though the songs are meant to help children memorize the short Answers, they are helpful for adults as well.
The New City Catechism has an online browser Web App for those who prefer to access the material on your computer and an app that you can find on the Google Play Store and App Store.
So, join us as we commit to memory some of the most important truths we could ever invest time in memorizing.
