Bible Truth is the only sure foundation for what we must believe and how we must live. Yet there is so much to learn about God and ourselves from the Bible that we need an accurate summary. The Westminster Shorter Catechism is one of the most used and best loved ways of teaching these key truths. Just like a map or a guide is essential in exploring a large country, so this podcast and the book that accompanies this series, Bible Truth Explored, is designed as a guide for all ages to help explore the Bible using the Shorter Catechism.
