    will not depart
    from it.

    Q: Who made you?

    Small Children's Catechism


    Before we dive into the actual catechism, it is important that we answer the question, “What is a catechism?”
    Basically, a catechism is a series of questions and answers used to instruct someone in sound doctrine. This document
    provides a modified catechism for young children. We recommend using it during family devotion time to instruct your
    children in sound doctrine. Introduce two or three new questions a week and review all you’ve covered daily.
