Catechism

Right now, I'm sitting in the Deakin Uni library with two dear friends, Rachel and Min.  We've spent the last few months studying the Westminster Shorter Catechism for the Pressy Church 'Catechism Competition'.  Right now, my two students are sitting the exams.

It's been a really great process trying to prepare them for the exam, but more importantly sitting down and chatting and wrestling with the theology we studied in the Q's and A's!

It was exciting to try and nut out questions like "How can God be sovereign and in no way the author of sin" and "What does it really mean to live for the glory of God."

I'm a little sad to be finishing this time with these two, because it has been such a blessing.  I'm hoping they do really well in the exam, but more so, I'm hoping the things we've studied will be doctrine they can learn to apply in their life and in the way they seek to build the Kingdom.
