What we hear and see again and again teaches us, even forms us. Good habits and bad, wisdom and foolishness, all can be formed in us through repetition. What echoes around us stays with us for better or worse.
Kitchen Table Catechesis is the intentional echoing of the truths of Scripture to teach the faith and form in us the mind of Christ. Below are audio recordings for daily Scripture readings and portions of the Catechism. Use these on your own or with your family.
A special encouragement here is given to fathers. Dad, more than anyone you will form your child’s idea about God. Whether you try to or not, you are impacting the faith of your kids. Be intentional in echoing to them the truths of Scripture. It can be as simple as reading the daily Scripture and the Catechism readings and when they ask a tough question saying, “That’s a good one for pastor! Let’s ask him on Sunday!”
Echo the grace of Christ and watch the confidence of faith grow. God grant that these resources will provide you with faith building words to echo to your kids.
O Lord, you have made us for yourself, and our heart is restless until it rests in you.
