Particularly good for memorizing
By Richard Sugg
When I need to memorize something, I break it up into phrases, indent portions, etc. What's really great about this edition is that they already do this for you. I was really surprised when I opened it up and saw that lengthy answers are indented intuitively. For instance, Q2 asks "how many things are necessary...". The answer is "Three....", and the three answers are indented one under the other. This sort of visual clue makes it much easier to memorize -- it has already organized the response.
I also appreciate the source texts after each Q&A.

Is what it says it is
By Clint Walker
This book is what it says it is in the title, which I greatly appreciate. It lists all of the questions and answers of the Westminster Catechism in order, divided by the Lord's Day they are assigned to. Each question and answer is then followed by the Scripture text references printed out underneath that question. This is very convenient. This way I can immediately look down and read a Scripture reference to support the stated question and answer.
This book is especially helpful when teaching on the Catechism. When necessary I can scan down and see which Scriptures are most appropriate to explain a certain question in the catechism. If necessary, I can just read the passage. Occasionally, even though I probably should not do this, I just copy the questions and answers for the day with the Scriptures.
If anyone is doing a study on the Heidelberg Catechism, this is a necessary resource.
