Welcome to The Shorter Podcast: the podcast that demonstrates that the Shorter Catechism is for all and useful for all of life. You’ll find all of the The Shorter episodes right here. We are excited to journey through the Shorter Catechism with you. Please invite a friend to listen along.
In this episode of the podcast, Tommy and Stephen interview Dr. Scott Redd, President of RTS in DC and Professor of Old Testament. They discuss Question 26 of the Shorter Catechism concerning Jesus as our king. Dr. Redd is the author of The Whole Imperative and hosts a podcast through RTS DC.
Q. 26. How doth Christ execute the office of a king?
A. Christ executeth the office of a king, in subduing us to himself, in ruling and defending us, and in restraining and conquering all his and our enemies.
