The official Catechism of the Catholic Church, Second Edition clearly spells out the Church's beliefs on: •Love and marriage •Children •God, creation, humanity, life, death, and the afterlife •Mary, the Church, the saints, and the sacraments •And much, much more.
Why a "second edition"? Revised to conform completely with the official Latin text promulgated by Pope John Paul II in 1997, the book now also includes an extensive glossary and analytical index to make it even more "user friendly."
Unlike the catechism you may have used as a child, the official Catechism of the Catholic Church, Second Edition, doesn't have a question-and-answer format. Designed for lay use, it can be read from cover-to-cover or, with its handy index, used as a resource to find a specific teaching on a specific topic.
A "must" for every Catholic household. It's also the perfect gift for graduation, Confirmation, birthdays, Christmas, and Mother's or Father's Day. (And a great addition to your own library to help you learn even more about the Church and be better able to explain its beliefs to others!)

Hosted by Dr. John Haas of the St. Charles Forum series, and filmed by EWTN in Vienna, this is perfect for study groups, adult education, high school or college religion class, or any individuals who want to really delve into this profound and beautiful synthesis of the Catholic Faith. This series covers the history of the Catechism, including the process used to compose it and the hopes and expectation of its writers. It reviews the four pillars of the Catechism: what the Catholic Church believes (Creed), celebrates (Sacraments), lives (Commandments) and how we pray (Our Father). Bishop Schönborn then discusses ways in which the Catechism can be used to deepen a person's faith.
