What all God’s children believe

“By far the most beautifully illustrated and theologically simple-but-sublime catechism for children” ― Michael F. Bird

Join FatCat, the friendly feline, as he learns the traditional text of the Apostles’ Creed―the earliest summary of the apostles’ teaching. Through the Creed, children can encounter the God of the Bible who creates, redeems, and sanctifies. Enjoy vibrantly illustrated scenes of Jesus’s life and search for FatCat on every page!

Tish Harrison Warren, Anglican Priest and author of Liturgy of the Ordinary and Prayer in the Night

I am always on the lookout for better resources for the formation of children. This is one I’ll return to again and again. Ben Myers and Natasha Kennedy give us an accessible yet extraordinarily rich invitation into the church’s great historic catechism. With vivid, beautiful illustrations and profound catechesis, this book will delight children (and adults), shaping both their minds and imaginations.

Carl R. Trueman, Grove City College and author of The Creedal Imperative

The pressing need of this—as of every—age is to teach the whole counsel of God. And that can never start too soon and never find a better basic framework than the Apostles’ Creed. In this clearly written and beautifully illustrated exposition of the Creed, parents and teachers have a simple, delightful, and orthodox tool for introducing their children to the central teachings of the Christian faith. The ‘fat cat’ will no doubt engage children’s imaginations, but it is not only the young who will benefit: In its treatment of the descent clause, adults too might find this brings clarity to some of their own thoughts on the most universal of Christian confessions.

Harold L. Senkbeil, author of The Care of Souls

The vivid illustrations of Natasha Kennedy bring central scriptural narratives to life in living color. Ben Myers provides a brief summary of each phrase of the Creed in clear, child-friendly words: that’s what I believe. Be sure to look for the ‘fat cat’ hidden on every page. This book is bursting with meaning for all ages!

Anika Prather, founder of The Living Water School and adjunct professor at Howard University

This is a beautiful book that explains the faith so clearly and visually. Such a great way to introduce children to the Apostle’s Creed and the very foundation of Christianity.
