A Good Confession: Daily Reflections on the Westminster Shorter Catechism

“I’m thankful for Pastor Bob Flayhart and his team at Oak Mountain Presbyterian Church for providing this devotional on the Westminster Shorter Catechism. The shorter catechism ought to be more widely used and appreciated than it is in our circles, and this tool aims to make it accessible for use in personal and family settings by supplying accompanying memory verses, Scripture readings, stories, and short reflections. In addition, preachers and teachers may benefit from reading the personal stories included. There is good material for sermon/lesson illustrations to be gleaned from them.”

“Those from Reformed circles are sometimes critiqued for being “brains on a stick,” making faith all about head knowledge and insulating hearts from the warm embrace of the gospel. That’s just one reason to celebrate this devotional founded on the core standards of our faith that unites deep understanding of doctrinal essentials with profound reflections on the personal implications of those truths.”

“A big thank you to Oak Mountain Presbyterian Church for utilizing the framework of the Westminster Shorter Catechism and the gifts of their own congregation to give us A Good Confession. This devotional plan will be a great adventure for individuals, families, and churches who want to pass the richness and relevance of the Reformed faith to the next generation. I plan to give a copy to our children and grandchildren so we can journey through it together.”
