Are
you looking for a deeper understanding of the Bible? Our Catechism Classes
give you the opportunity to study the foundations of Christianity in
the Bible.
What
is catechism?
The word comes from the Greek katecheo,
which is used in Galatians 6:6 where Paul notes that he who is taught,
or catechized, should share with him who is teaching, or catechizing.
Catechizing is most often teaching by the question and answer method.
Jesus frequently taught believers and skeptics alike by posing and taking
questions. He was once asked “Lord, we don't know where you are
going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am
the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except
through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well.
From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” In that brief
question and answer is the meaning of catechism: a question is posed,
and a clear concise answer gives revelation of God.
The catechism curriculum of Bethesda Christian Church is based on this
principle.
To register for a class, fill out the Registration Form in the Catechism
