Industry Reviews

We have used the Westminster Shorter Catechism with our own children, and now with our grandchildren. This is by far the most visually attractive version we have ever encountered. We expect that many parents will want to get a copy as soon as they see it!

-- Tim Keller ((1950 - 2023) Redeemer City to City)

I'm thankful for this new edition of these time-tested questions and answers, updated, simplified, and beautifully pictured. Here is a beautiful catechism, beautifully pictured, so that we might behold more clearly our beautiful God.

-- Jason Helopoulos (Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan)

This beautifully illustrated version updates the language without losing the meaning or simplicity of the original. As a result, it could be an extremely useful tool in defending the truth once delivered to the saints.

-- David Robertson (Well-known pastor and apologist)

The Shorter Catechism ... has shaped the lives of generations of Christians throughout the world. So it is fitting that it should be produced in this beautiful 21st century edition. For genuine beauty, true likeness to Jesus Christ, is what the Catechism helps to create in anyone--old or young--who uses it faithfully.

-- Sinclair B. Ferguson (Chancellor's Professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi)
