A Catechism for Boys and Girls

Book excerpt: Suitable for use in family worship times or in a Sunday school setting, A catechism for boys and girls teaches children basic Christian doctrines and forms a framework for personal interaction with the Scriptures. This series of questions and answers develops a fundamental understanding of God, sin, salvation, prayer, the Bible, the church and heaven and hell. Each answer in the catechism is supported by Scripture references. The task of teaching doctrine is increasingly challenging in present-day society, but this small catechism is a helpful resource for training children in the fear and the ways of God.
