catechism with your kids.

I think using something like the Westminster Shorter Catechism with your kids is an awesome way to fix truth into their minds even at a young age. Even though they certainly don't understand it at first, bits of it will begin to make sense as they get older, and hopefully they will remember it for a long time! This is what we've learned so far. The words are below so you can understand what he is saying. :)

    I just showed this to all my friends. They LOVED it. Possibly one of the most precious things I have ever witnessed.

    I agree with Alyssa - so precious. Especially when he boldly proclaimed "there is only one God!"
