The Westminster Shorter Catechism

Book • 1897
The Westminster Shorter Catechism is a concise summary of Christian doctrine in question-and-answer format, composed in the 17th century.

It serves as a foundational teaching tool for instructing believers, particularly children, in the core tenets of the Protestant Reformed faith.

The catechism covers essential topics such as the nature of God, the Trinity, the creation and fall of humanity, the person and work of Jesus Christ, and the means of grace.

Its precise language and structured approach have made it a lasting resource for theological education and spiritual formation.

Generations of Christians have used it to gain a solid understanding of biblical truth and to deepen their relationship with God.
