Catechisms-part 2
Ok, So I have been trying for the last few days to upload this cute video of Hannah reciting her catechisms. They are taken out of the book "Teaching Truths, Training Hearts..." BY: Tom Nettles. (chapter 5)...BUT it wont work. I am trying...so stay tuned. In the mean time I highly recommend this book to those of you with younger children. Not only will it teach them basics about the Christian Faith, but they will love it too. Hannah loves it, and I know that she is proud of what she knows. It has also opened the door for some wonderful conversations with her on what we (Dan and I) believe in. It never ceases to amaze me what she understands...or what she doesn't. Even Sunday night as we were taking the Lord's Supper, she was asking me all kinds of questions ranging from why a cracker to is Justin going to have some. I just love it! I was able to explain to her each step. She is also paying more attention to the service now, and less to her toys. This makes it easier to help her understand what a service is and why we go to church.
We can also make sure that she is being taught exactly what we believe and after all, isn't that our jobs as parents? What better way to share the Gospel, than by teaching it to your child in a fun way!! It is SO important that we be taking care of their souls by continuously pointing them to the cross and Salvation on a daily basis. There are other chapters in the book for older children...should you have older children, or just want to learn the truth yourself. We highly recommend it!!
Enjoy!
