RTS Virtual Releases Westminster Shorter Catechism Iphone App Free To Public

Online, July 8, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Charlotte, North Carolina - June 3, 2010 - Reformed Theological Seminary's Virtual Campus has announced the release of a free iPhone application entitled "Westminster Shorter Catechism in 90 Days." As the name suggests, this flashcard-style application now enables users to learn and memorize the entire Shorter Catechism in just three months time. Developed in partnership with Allogy Interactive, LLC, the application includes the option to learn either a traditional version of the Catechism, or a modern English version, along with daily lessons, quizzes and review of all 107 questions.

This application will be notably valuable for Christian degree -seeking RTS and RTS Virtual graduate students, who are tasked with fulfilling a Shorter Catechism memorization requirement. However, with the simple ease in which anyone can download and use an iPhone app, RTS Virtual sees great value in this application for non-seminarians as well.

"We are excited about the release of the Westminster Shorter Catechism in 90 Days application, and it is our sincere hope that this will be a tool for many people to use in studying and memorizing the Biblical principles conveyed in the Catechism," said Dr. Andrew J. Peterson, the President of RTS Virtual Campus.

Through this wedding of technology, portability and God's Word, RTS Virtual is proud to share the timeless truths encapsulated in the Westminster Shorter Catechism. To download the application, search the iTunes / iPhone app store for "90 Days," and look for the RTS Virtual app in the results list. The application requires the latest version of the iPhone software (3.1.3), which is a free upgrade for iPhone owners. RTS Virtual and Allogy Interactive also are releaseing a web-based version of the Shorter Catechism app, to broaden its compatibility with other portable electronic devices.
