The Westminster Larger Catechism, along with the Westminster Shorter Catechism, is a central catechism of Calvinists in the English tradition throughout the world. The process of writing a catechism started in 1643. In January 1647 the Assembly gave up writing one catechism and split it into two. The Westminster Shorter Catechism was to be "easier to read and concise for beginners" and the Larger Catechism was to be "more exact and comprehensive".

This unusual volume follows the doctrinal structure of the classic Puritan catechism, expounding each doctrinal point not with exposition, as is customary, but with many factual stories well selected by the author from a wide range of sources. Thus such subjects as Providence, Prayer and the Ten Commandments are illuminated with telling and sometimes fascinating narratives. First, published in 1828, and passing through many editions in the last century, the book has been revised for greater usefulness today.
