Priceless Treasure for Family Devotions Review by Jordan
As a family we had been using the Kuske edition for family devotions and made the switch to this. Kuske is a great resource and has served the church well for many years. I love how accessible this is. The introductory material for each lesson does a great job of setting the tone. The questions and answers with relevant Bible passages in my opinion are very well thought out as well. The Connections blurbs are very good at summarizing and applying the lessons. The graphs are also clear and helpful. My kids enjoy Catechism time with this resource and so do my spouse and I. Can’t recommend enough! (Posted on 1/26/2020)

The more I use it the more value I see Review by Tom Barthel
At first I was not inclined to use this book because it departed from the minimal layout of the catechism I grew up using (exposition by David Kuske). However, the more I use it the more I appreciate the layout and content. After about a year of use I have found it to be a treasured resource.
It does not seem as easy to read as the Kuske catechism, but it has many added advantages. Navigation is improved with color-coded edges for quick reference. The smaller size makes it an easy-to-grab book to carry with you. If you don't struggle with reading standard font sizes this is a good trade-off. The compact size is important for those who wish to use it for memory work or for daily personal devotion.
The "Connections" section is an excellent addition and useful for incorporating Scripture readings and hymns for personal, classroom, or family discussion.
The NIV and ESV options offer good translation choices. I hope this will also be made available in the future EHV.
Thank you to those involved in this important project. Well done putting together many useful features with excellent content! (Posted on 8/10/2018)
