In an age of waning biblical literacy and theological knowledge, Creator to Crown: A Christ-Centered Catechism by Adam McClendon and Chris Hulshof offers a vital educational tool. Building on Benjamin Keach’s Catechism, McClendon and Hulshof update and reorder his questions and answers, crafting a resource designed to guide Christians into deeper communion with Christ. This catechism aims to move beyond mere memorization, equipping believers to truly understand, articulate, and embody their faith in a contemporary world. “Adam McClendon and Chris Hulshof offer pastors, parents, and any follower of Christ a biblically sound and helpful resource for everyday use. This resource not only uses the question-and-answer format of previous classic Christian catechisms but helps teach the redemptive narrative of Scripture through McClendon and Hulshof’s outline of Creator, Creation, Crisis, Covenants, Christ, Church, and Crown. I look forward to being able to keep this resource handy and using it in my own devotional times with the Lord. I pray this work will be a blessing to individuals, families, and churches for generations to come.” —Brian Autry , e xecutive director , Southern Baptist Convention of Virginia   “ Creator to Crown is a clear and accessible guide designed to spark meaningful theological conversations in homes, classrooms, and churches alike. Whether used for teaching, discipleship, or personal spiritual growth, this resource is a valuable tool for building strong theological foundations.” —Linda Barrick, c ofounder, Hope Out Loud Ministries   “ Catechism seems like an old and dusty word to some. But McClendon and Hulshof have done a great service to the church in knocking the dust off Keach’s classic work. All Baptist/evangelical churches will be well served by this resource aimed at training a new generation in Christian thought and theology.” —Louis Beckwith, pastor, Calvary Baptist Church, Lynchburg, Virginia   “Catechesis is a historic Christian practice and a common Baptist instinct. From Keach and Collins to Spurgeon and Piper, Baptists have historically produced catechisms to further their efforts in discipleship. This new addition is helpful in the home and in the church, for children and adults alike. Hulshof and McClendon have produced a valuable resource for Christ’s church.” —Matthew Y. Emerson, co-provost; dean of theology, arts, and humanities; and professor of religion, Oklahoma Baptist University   “For much of church history, catechisms have been central to Christian formation. Though less popular among Baptists and other evangelicals today, we need sound catechisms more than ever. Chris Hulshof and Adam McClendon understand that need, and Creator to Crown is a welcome resource. The authors draw upon Benjamin Keach’s famous catechism, first published in 1693, but they update the language and structure to emphasize the story of redemption revealed through the biblical covenants. The result is a substantive, yet accessible short introduction to the Christian faith.” —Nathan A. Finn, professor of faith and culture, North Greenville University   “With  Creator to Crown , Hulshof and McClendon have achieved a new level of accessibility for catechesis in the home, the classroom, and the church. This book is a compelling vehicle for doctrinal formation and pastoral care, equipping pastors and ministry leaders with the means to convey rich theological truths in ways that are both biblically sound and within reach to both new believers and seasoned saints alike.” —Bradley Gray, pastor, Stonington Baptist Church, Paxinos, Pennsylvania   “The day a Christian, at any age, stops asking questions, they stop growing. To discover the answers that produce maturity, transformation, and fruitfulness, we must ask the right questions—ones that will renew our minds and root our souls in balanced and unchanging biblical truth. Even as a pastor for four decades, I was helped by this excellent resource that will certainly stimulate rich, well-ordered, and applicable learning of biblical truth for individuals, families, schools, and entire congregations.”    — Daniel Henderson, founder and president, Strategic Renewal   “Beautiful! Creator to Crown will live on my coffee table. I deeply appreciate resources that help me point the people in my life to the truths of our faith.” —Scarlet Hiltibidal, speaker and author   “What a gift we have been given with Creator to Crown . As a former youth pastor and now senior pastor of a local church, I am always looking for resources to point people to that can develop their whole faith journey. Drs. McClendon and Hulshof have created a map to follow from beginning to end, and there is no mistaking it all points to Jesus. Fabulous book that I believe God will use to help shape our culture.” —Mike Linch, senior pastor, NorthStar Church, Kennesaw, Georgia   “On the plains of Moab, just before the nation of Israel entered the p
