# B.B. Warfield on Shorter Catechism Boys

“It is worth while to be a Shorter Catechism boy. They grow to be men. And better than that, they are exceedingly apt to grow to be men of God. So apt, that we cannot afford to have them miss the chance of it. ‘Train up a child in the way he should go, and even when he is old he will not depart from it.’” — [**B**.**B. Warfield**](/authors/b-b-warfield), *Is the Shorter Catechism Worthwhile*? (1909)
