Comforting Hearts Teaching Minds: Family Devotions Based on the Heidelberg Catechism

Q. How do you have meaningful family devotions that memorably cover the scope of Christian belief?

A. Traditionally, by using a catechism!

One of the church’s most acclaimed and best beloved catechisms is the Heidelberg Catechism. Now teaching its comforts to children has never been easier.

This book of daily readings:

• provides a year—or more—of family devotions
• aids study by devoting six to twelve days to the questions of each Lord’s Day section
• explains the catechism in simple language
• provides six to twelve meditations on the main points of each section
• takes just a few minutes each day, allowing time for discussion and review
• is useful in the home, church, or classroom
