Definition: The word "catechism" in Christian theology has a dual meaning. On one hand, it means a body of beliefs or doctrines that Christians believe in. It can be interpreted as a collection of teachings or principles that are believed to be true and authoritative by theologians, scholars, and religious leaders. On the other hand, "catechism" refers to an examination of a person's faith, usually conducted by religious authorities who assess their understanding of doctrine or belief. This is often carried out by priests, bishops, or churches in which someone has been raised to believe certain doctrines. In terms of definition, a catechism typically includes questions and answers that are designed to help individuals understand the core beliefs and teachings contained in a particular Christian tradition (such as the Church of England, Protestant denominations, Catholic Churches). It can also include personal reflections on how these beliefs or doctrines have been tested through the years and what has worked well over time.
