The Gospel Way Catechism: 50 Truths That Take on the World - Paperback

by Trevin Wax (Author), Thomas West (Author)

Reclaiming an Ancient Tool of Faith Formation for Our Secular Age

In a world overflowing with competing ideas about meaning and purpose, it's more important than ever to embrace the gospel story as the ultimate lens through which we understand life.

For centuries, Christians have relied on catechisms--question-and-answer summaries of faith--to teach the faith and disciple new believers. The Gospel Way Catechism reclaims this powerful practice, explaining 50 essential Christian beliefs in a clear, Q&A format.

But it doesn't stop there. Each answer not only clarifies the core tenets of faith, but also equips you to identify and challenge today's common, yet powerful, cultural narratives. As you are formed by biblical answers to essential questions about God, life, and faith, you will also be counter-formed so you can identify the shortcomings of secular scripts and subvert them with the gospel.

Suitable for individual, group, and church-wide study, this discipleship tool provides an effective antidote to Western culture's inherent self-centeredness. Let this guide strengthen your faith and empower you to be salt and light in a culture desperate for meaning.
