Product Description

A leading Catholic theologian, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger offers this introduction to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Presented by Pope John Paul II in 1992, this catechism has only just begun to excercise its influence on Christian teaching. It is meant to assist theology, which is becoming sterile and cold and to realize anew 'the admirable unity of the mystery of God', in order to recover joy in the beauty of the faith and wonder over its vital energy. This volume will assist readers in understanding the background, significance and meaning of the catechism.

This is a valuable introduction to the Catechism by the general editor of the Catechism (Schonborn) and the head of the Bishops Commission for the implementation of the Catechism (Ratzinger). Providing helpful insights on how to read and study the Catechism, this book includes a prehistory of the Catechism, an overview of its structure and contents, the major themes and methods in it, a special introduction to the four parts of the Catechism, and specific advice on how to use the Catechism. Ratzinger and Schonborn illuminate the Catechism's teaching on faith, morals, prayer and sacraments, and how a Catholic lives those teachings in today's world.
