Nella has been learning the catechism as a part of Redeemer Church's children's program. We work on it at home during the week and the children review it together on Sunday morning at church.
What the heck is a catechism, you ask? According to our children's ministry literature, catechism is an anglicized version of the Greek word, katekeo, which simply means, "to instruct." The word has come to be known as a style of instruction that teaches the essentials of the Christian faith.
It's a series of memorized questions and answers meant to give someone a general overview of biblical theology. If you're interested in learning more about it, Desiring God Ministries has a great overview as well as the Baptist Catechism, here.
Anyway, one night I recorded Nella answering the first 10 questions. She and Silas were in the bathtub, which should explain the splashes and screeches. I figured at least Granny and Nana would get a kick out of it. Kid's capacity to learn and memorize is incredible. Nella is 2 and 1/2.
You'll have to download the audio file because I cannot figure out how to embed it into the post. Sorry.
