notes

Bruce Benedict began writing music to the Westminster shorter catechism a couple years ago when a friend in jest suggested such a bizarre project…and a couple years later the CD was finished. There is 107 questions in this ancient church catechism but this CD is just the first 38 questions. but don't worry!! The others will be coming shortly. Bruce is currently helping with music and worship at a Camden Town Church in London. If you have any questions or want to find out more please go to www.cardiphonia.com.

  • This is great!
    author: Lenny

    I love it and will be sharing with my church and kid(s).

  • This is the one I'll be using with my children!
    author: Stephen

    A fabulous CD--Mr. Benedict has a wonderful penchant for setting the very irregular meter of the catechism to very naturally flowing, catchy tunes. The CD has very nice melodies which will be enjoyed by young and old alike. Highly recommended!!!

  • Anticipating Vol II
    author: glh

    The CD arrived promptly and safely. We love the songs and are using them for our homeschool. The Westminster Catechisms have always been a part of our curriculum. We have 4 boys ages 15 down to 4 and they are all auditory learners. The CD is helping them hide the principles of Scripture in their hearts and the acoustic style suits our taste. We have recommended it to our fellow learners. Thank you for producing such a fine piece of music and rendition of historical Church doctrine.

  • My husband won't stop singing.
    author: Rachel

    We wanted an easy way to learn the Shorter Catechism, and this is doing the trick. We are expecting twins, and know that we need to have it memorized if we expect them to learn it. Hopefully the rest of the questions will be done by the time they are ready to learn them :)

  • Love it!
    author: Jenny Baenziger

    I love this CD! Great songs, great idea. I can't wait for the next installation! Bruce, we never had the chance to meet but my husband and I go to Redeemer and are big fans of yours. CDBaby, your service was excellent!

  • Shorter Catechism Vol. 1
    author: Richard H. King

    This is excellent music. Very well done and as usual the service from CDBaby was perfecct.

  • VERY impressive.... I love it!
    author: Sean Radke

    This is an amazing project. What an undertaking! Bruce pulls it off with style. The music is folk-rock, well-layered, and the vocals are very clean. This is quality- simple, joyful, and reverent. Bruce, if you are reading this, we went to RTS together once upon a time. Wonderful work, and I look forward to the next CD. And may Christ encourage you as you listen to this beautiful work.

  • These CDs are great!
    author: Paul Huffmaster

    These CDs are great! I listen and sing along on my way to work. I am really looking forward to 39-107. Great work Bruce! Praise the Lord that you use your gifts to serve in this way.
