What is the spirit that undergirds these rules for life? What are some ideas for how to teach and raise kids to understand these kinds of commandments?

Talk about a "big question." Our habit in this new series is to improvise several thoughts about the question from any point of view, then reveal the answer according to the New City Catechism and wrap up with a reflection on that answer. A couple notable quotes this week: "I'll make you fishers of MATH!" "Fruit and Brut" Thanks to New City Catechism for this great resource. http://newcitycatechis...
