The Heidelberg Catechism with Scripture Texts (2011 Edition)

The Heidelberg Catechism has long been admired as a clear expression of the Reformed Christian faith as well as for its warm, personal tone. Many of its questions and answers—especially Q & A 1—have been memorized by thousands and have become an anchor for faith for generations of Christians.This edition of the Heidelberg Catechism, which includes all supporting Scripture texts (NRSV) printed out for easy reference, offers a fresh and accurate translation of the historic confession. Developed by pastors and scholars from various Reformed and Presbyterian churches, this edition seeks to recapture the catechism's original purpose for not only teaching the faith but also uniting our voices by means of a common confession.
