Waterfront Park

Saturday we all went to the Waterfront Park here in Louisville.  We had a good time walking around and playing at the park.  Here are a few pics:

Corinne is now on the 9th question of her catechism.  Its a difficult one that may take a little longer to conquer.  Here it is:

Does God have a body like ours?  No; God is Spirit, infinite, and eternal.

This is a little difficult to grasp and it spawned a conversation of how God is not limited to a body.  She is beginning to see that God may be more than just a larger version of us.

John the Baptist

Today, Corinne and I (Owen stayed around for a minute or two) read Part 15 of the Big Picture Story Bible entitled "God's New People are Called."  The story introduced the identity of John the Baptist and did a wonderful job of contrasting the character of John with who Jesus was:

• Jesus was the Promised One
• The promised King
• The Son of God
• The Lamb who would take away the sins of the world!

First Seven Catechism Questions

Corinne and I are working through "A Catechism for Boys and Girls".  Here are the questions we did today:

1.Q. Who made you?
A. God made me (Gn 1:26, 27; 2:7; Ec 12:1; Acts 17:24-29).

2.Q. What else did God make?
A. God made all things (Gn 1, esp. verses 1, 31; Acts 14:15; Rm 11:36; Col 1:16).

3.Q. Why did God make you and all things?
A. For his own glory (Ps 19:1; Jer 9:23, 24; Rv 4:11; 4:15).

4.Q. How can you glorify God?
A. By loving him and doing what he commands (Ec 12:13; Mk 12:29-31; In 15:8-10; 1 Cor 10:31).

5.Q. Why ought you to glorify God?
A. Because he made me and takes care of me (Rm 11:36; Rv 4:11; cf. Dan 4:39).

6.Q. Are there more gods than one?
A. There is only one God (Deut 6:4; Jer 10:10; Mk 12:29; Acts 17:22-31).

7.Q. In how many persons does this one God exist?
A. In three persons (Mt 3:16, 17; Jn 5:23; 10:30; 14:9, 10; 15:26; 16:13-15; 1 In 5:20, 2 In 9; Rv 1:4, 5).
