The New City Catechism was developed by Timothy Keller and Sam Shammas from the Reformation catechisms. It's aim is to help teach and explain the building blocks of the gospel and to help strengthen the church’s distinct identity. It comprises 52 questions and answers—therefore there is only one question and answer for each week of the year.

New City Catechism is based on and adapted from Calvin's Geneva Catechism, the Westminster Shorter and Larger Catechisms, and especially the Heidelberg Catechism.It is divided into 3 parts to make it easier to learn in sections and to include some helpful divisions:

PART 1 = God, creation and fall, law (20 questions);

PART 2 = Christ, redemption, grace (15 questions);

PART 3 = Spirit, restoration, growing in grace (17 questions).

New City Catechism is a joint project between Redeemer Presbyterian Church and The Gospel Coalition.
