Gospel, Catechesis, Catechism: Sidelights on the Catechism of the Catholic Church

I recommend this book to everyone involved in passing on the Good News, little children up to adults. It is the framework on how to tailor your every week sessions and how to be aware of the fact that everything about the Catholic faith is in the Catechism, but not only as a reference book, but as a lifestyle defined by the great commitment you make when you say yes to Jesus.

Reading it for class (MACE at Franciscan University of Steubenville), but it's a beautifully written book and Pope Benedict's explanations take you very deep in your faith. I have recommended it to my friend who runs RCIA because it puts so many concepts about teaching and learning about the Catholic Church into words that are very touching and helpful.

Interesting account by the man who was in charge of what he thought they were doing.

I have occasionally tried to figure out why we needed the CCC specifically when other Catechisms existed, this helped me see even deeper wisdom in its creation.
