Description

Guilt, Grace, Gratitude

· Understand a foundational Reformed catechism
· Follow a 52-week plan for reading or preaching
· Study alone or in a small group

Christians are bombarded with competing messages, but the Heidelberg Catechism speaks clearly. Its teaching on the gospel and the Christian life is biblical, accessible, and pastoral. Its three-part structure of guilt (law), grace (gospel), and gratitude (sanctification) is framed by the comfort the Christian has in God alone.

In The Heidelberg Catechism, R. Scott Clark reflects on the catechism's theology, piety, and practice. This thorough yet accessible guide to the catechism comments on each of its 129 questions, revealing the catechism's historical and theological context and explaining how it enlivens the Christian faith today.

This is a wonderful resource for understanding The Heidelberg Catechism. A must have for reformed households.

Easy to read & understand.

There is a 52 week plan that you can use individually, as a family, small group or church.

The book starts out with an introduction, explaining what a catechism is. There is a lengthy commentary after each day's catechism question that gives a lot of information, helping to understand each one.

Thanks to the author, publisher & Netgalley for the ARC read. All opinions are my own. Review also posted on Goodreads.
