Grandpa's Christian
Catechism For Young Students
UPDATED!
The special
characteristics of this catechism are that it:
• is
written in 21st-century American,
•
includes some of the real questions children ask (not just the
questions that they should ask),
• allows topics to overlap rather than keeping material in
strict systematic categories,
• includes questions
and answers about our eschatological destiny to point children toward a
future more meaningful than “eternally playing a harp on a cloud,”
• alludes to city
(i.e., cultural) transformation as part of our calling,
• and also on pages
42 and 50 includes blessings for sons and daughters that can be adapted
by parents and grandparents to pronounce over their loved ones.
Roderick has written for an eight-year-old, but has not avoided
technical matters. Some “big words” are explained in the catechism;
others will provide an opportunity for the instructor to teach the
student a new vocabulary term.
