Whether you are new to the Lutheran faith or you are a lifelong believer, this app will help you learn and re-learn the essentials of your faith. A catechism teaches the principles of the Christian faith, often in the form of a series of questions and answers. The content of this Lutheran catechism reference is centered around Dr. Martin Luther’s Small Catechism with related scripture passages added. Additional material is provided from Heinrich Schwan’s “A Short Exposition of Dr. Martin Luther’s Small Catechism” and from Martin Luther’s Large Catechism. Memorization tools are provided for the Lord’s Prayer and the Apostles’ Creed (more to come).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Lutheran Catechism at 5.0 against My Episcopal's 4.3. Lutheran Catechism also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 12 months). My Episcopal's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.1). On price, ratings volume, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
