Children & Young Adult Reading, Religion/Spirituality
Theology in Romance: Or, The Catechism and the Dermott Family is a mid-19th century religious educational narrative by Madeline Leslie. The story follows the Dermott family as they engage in catechism discussions, blending moral lessons with insights on divine nature and human existence. Through lively interactions, particularly between Mrs. Dermott and her children, the book explores key Christian theological concepts, starting with the chief end of man: to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. This work is notable for its engaging storytelling approach to teaching the Westminster Shorter Catechism.
