Comforting Hearts Teaching Minds

Starr Meade enables families with school-age children to participate in satisfying devotions together by taking them through The Heidelberg Catechism--explaining its answers in short devotional readings accompanied by relevant Bible passages.

Supplies two needs: (1) profitable, useable material for family devotions and (2) a practical guide for parents helping their children learn the catechism.

Long before we reach adulthood, the gospel ought to be shaping our lives. Paul taught the core truths of the gospel in his letter to the Galatians, and this collection of interactive readings for preteens applies those truths in understandable ways. Each reading begins with a key verse and then highlights one element of the gospel in everyday terms, followed by questions and activities that reinforce Paul’s teaching. Meade guides young readers to a full picture of God’s saving work, as well as a real understanding of other doctrinal concepts such as justification by faith alone, the priority of Scripture, the requirements for apostleship, and the relationship between the old and new covenants. For parents and teachers who want to awaken young hearts to a lifelong commitment to the gospel, God’s Mighty Acts in Salvation is a great resource. This is a companion volume to God’s Mighty Acts in Creation.

This book discusses how attention relates to the self, perception, knowledge, consciousness, action, and responsibility.

Families with young children will love this illustrated Bible story book that teaches kids about the character of God. A sequel to the popular Mighty Acts of God.

Includes the text of the latest translation of the Heidelberg Catechism (1975, updated 1988) approved by the Christian Reformed Church. Scripture references are listed in footnotes.
