This Faith and Life student textbook incorporates the four principal components of catechesis: the Creed, the Commandments, the Sacraments and Liturgy, Prayer and Scripture. But besides giving a clear and comprehensive presentation of our faith, the student textbook is rich in artwork, both original and classical.
The Nation’s Leading Religion Series Just Got Better!
THEME: The history of the Church--its founding by Christ, its birth in the Holy Spirit,
the marks of the one, true Church, the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, the saints and
the role of the religious and laity up to the present. The structure of the Church Jesus
planned, the role of the Magisterium, the clergy, the religious and the laity and our own
vocations.
SEQUENCE: Part 1: The Church. Christ's plan for the Church's structure and its
necessary attributes; the Church's teaching authority. The early Church: Martyrs, Fathers,
Saints and Mary.
Part 2: The Christian in the World. Religious and laity, Holy Orders, Marriage, and
family life; call to holiness.
Part 3: The Last Things. Death, Judgment, the end of the world.
AIM: To help the teenager know and love the Church as Christ's Body and the
Magisterium as the sure voice of Jesus, so that the young person may be strengthened
through his life in the Church to face the confusion and secularism of modern-day
society.
