The Reformed Classroom Catechism Podcast Series: What else did God make?

Episode 2: What Else Did God Make?

In this episode, Lauren continues our journey through the Children’s Catechism with our second question:

What else did God make?

God made all things.

We’ll build on what we learned in Episode 1 about God being our Creator and discover that God didn’t just make people—He made everything!

Together, we’ll open our Bibles and look at Psalm 33:6–7 and Acts 17:24–25 to learn about God’s power as Creator and what it means that He made the world and everything in it.

We’ll also talk about the big idea of creation out of nothing, sometimes called ex nihilo. God didn’t need materials, tools, or anyone else to help Him create. He simply spoke, and creation came into existence!

Most importantly, we’ll see how knowing that God created everything gives us a reason to worship Him, trust Him, and recognize His goodness and power throughout creation.

• What does it mean that God created everything “out of nothing”?
• Can we create something out of absolutely nothing? Why not?
• What are some things you see every day that remind you that God is our Creator?
• Why does knowing that God made everything give us a reason to worship Him?
