What Is the Chief End Of Man?

I have to confess a little something. I had never heard the word "catechism" until maybe a year ago. As a matter of fact, it was when I was flipping through my first Veritas Press Catalog. They had all these books about teaching your child the catechism. Which I had lived a long time without learning and never thought I was missing out so hey, why bother, right? Only, for some reason my mind kept creeping back to learning about it. So I started looking online at some reformed websites. They all recommend teaching the shorter catechism to children. There is even one called Child's First Catechism that you can teach to really young kids. Well, anyway, I like my set-up the way things are so I am just fine not adding something to it. Or, is there a little something missing? We open our school day each morning with Bible study. But are they really getting it? Do they truly understand the "big picture"? Am I thinking about it too much?
A month or so ago we had a long-range planning committee after church one night. Mark had to work that night, so guess who was there representing the youth: yours truly. Our pastor asked for us to think up goals for the new church year. I would really like to see our church grow. (not the normal Baptist kind of growth-nickels and noses. I mean really grow-spiritually. I would like to see us grow closer as a church family, that kind of thing) So I have really been thinking how to achieve those goals. Here is my master plan: get rid of our Sunday School Material. At least for a little while. Teach the adults and youth basic Biblical doctrine. I know that might sound kind of weird, but there are way too many people who don't know simple Bible truths. Even some (ok, most)of our teachers could use a refresher course. Have the children learn the catechism. Well, see my idea was originally to not tell anyone, just present it at the next meeting. Not knowing if Mark and the pastor would a.)like the basic concept or b.)mind that I was volunteering them to design the new material. Seeing as how I am also trying to work on my own self at getting closer to God, and a seeing how a submissive wife would not volunteer her dear hubby for something without first asking if is it okay, I thought it might be a good idea to talk to Marko about it. He somewhat liked it, but said, "You can't put that about the children learning the catechism" I said "Why not?" (ok, maybe I'm not that submissive!!) He said, "Well, that is like a Reformed-R-Us kind of thing, and we are just not a reformed church." Ah, point well made. He also suggested that I run the idea by the pastor before the meeting so that he has time to process it. (or reject it straight out)
So, that still leaves me with the feeling that I need to learn the catechism myself, and teach it to my children. So we started it last week. We are taking it slooowly One question per week. Our question last week was What is the chief end of man? Answer: Man's chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. We even found a CD on Rhapsody of a guy singing the catechism. I have said for years that Samuel can learn anything if it is set to music. (not kidding, he can sing this)Well, by Tuesday he was in his room doing a puzzle and singing "What is the chief end of maaann? Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him fuurrever."
Can you really think of a better example of glorifying, or enjoying God?
