The New City Catechism—Now in Print with New Devotional, Apps, Music


Questions and Answers Developed and Adapted from the Reformation Catechisms

I didn’t grow up with the historic Reformation catechisms. In fact, for a long time I probably would have regarded teaching and memorizing them as rote and thus unhelpful. Then I had a son. I watched with awe as he soaked up everything he saw and heard. I saw how he learned words and concepts that shaped his perception of the world. And suddenly I understood the wisdom of the generations before us.

The New City Catechism (NCC) is 52 questions and answers developed and adapted from the Reformation catechisms. Until now, the NCC has only been offered in app (iTunes | Google Play) and online form. Since its release in 2012, we have heard regularly from readers who loved the NCC, but didn’t want to use an electronic device in their devotions or with their children at bedtime. So we are grateful to Crossway for partnering with TGC and Redeemer Presbyterian Church to make it available in print—now available in two different products and on sale for more than 50 percent off next week at our national conference.
