Catechism of the Catholic Church Over 3 million copies sold! Essential reading for Catholics of all walks of life. Here it is - the first new Catechism of the Catholic Church in more than 400 years, a complete summary of what Catholics around the world commonly believe. The Catechism draws on the Bible, the Mass, the Sacraments, Church tradition and teaching, and the lives of saints. It comes with a complete index, footnotes and cross-references for a fuller understanding of every subject. The word catechism means "instruction" - this book will serve as the standard for all future catechisms. Using the tradition of explaining what the Church believes (the Creed), what she celebrates (the Sacraments), what she lives (the Commandments), and what she prays (the Lord's Prayer), the Catechism of the Catholic Church offers challenges for believers and answers for all those interested in learning about the mystery of the Catholic faith. The Catechism of the Catholic Church is a positive, coherent and contemporary map for our spiritual journey toward transformation. https://lnkd.in/gWf4s2BA

I wrote my latest book, Go and Do LIkewise: Following Jesus into our Common Humanity to help Christians recognize how knowing, working with, and honoring people of diverse traditions is faithful. Here's the first of a YouTube video of an interview about this book. https://lnkd.in/eBfi97sd

Aaron Renn's book "Life in the Negative World," expounds upon the "three worlds" framework for understanding how the secular world treats Christians. Reviewer Jason Jewell notes, "'Life in the Negative World' is probably the most important book on the church and society published in recent years. It gives Christians tools to read the cultural terrain. It makes a strong argument that evangelistic and discipleship tactics must be updated to account for current conditions. And it offers outside-the-box suggestions for strengthening evangelical households and institutions." Read the full review here: https://ow.ly/i87Y50Rb06c

A review of Words for Feasts and Saints Days by Bishop Hugh Gilbert from the Catholic Truth Society - Publishers To The Holy See The sermons are an interesting read. Because they focus on the readings and purposes of specific church feasts and saint days, they are spread through the year. As a book they can be read they can provide great encouragement and a challenge through the season of ordinary time, as we encounter these feasts. #BookReview https://lnkd.in/ghR-qhU9
