Bible Reading: John 20:17

Classwork: I hope everyone is having a fruitful Eastertide and enjoyed their “spring break.” Hopefully, everyone continued to ready the catechism daily… no? Well now is the perfect time to get back into the habit!

Today we will do a review of Lessons 1-8. We’ll again look at the big picture, re-cover the broad topics from these Lessons, and have an oral quiz to make sure everyone stays on their toes.

“…and in Jesus Christ…Who suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended into hell; on the third day, He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there He will come to judge the living and the dead…”

The Purpose of Man’s Existence -> God and His Perfections -> The Unity and Trinity of God -> Creation and the Angels -> Creation and the Fall of Man -> Actual Sin -> The Incarnation -> The Redemption

Homework: Please read Lesson 9 and review all past lessons. Set aside 15 minutes every day to read the catechism! 15 minutes a day = nearly two hours a week. This is a minimum amount of time. We are obligated to know God if are to love and serve Him.
