The Gift of Faith: A Question and Answer Catechism Version of the Teaching of Christ

Rating:
Summary: Comprehensive, approachable and throughly orthodox
Review: Based on the Pittsburgh bishop's classic "The Teaching of Christ", Bishop Wuerl's "The Gift of Faith" is a condensed Q&A catechism in full conformity with and indexed to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

The Q&A format both focuses the subject matter and allows readers to commit the lessons to memory. It's an excellent resource for RCIA, group study or anyone who seeks a comprehensive yet very approachable overview of the Faith.

Unlike many catechetical materials, the book doesn't dodge tough questions and addresses all the hot button issues that Catholics often do not hear from pulpits and parish catechists, e.g., contraception, abortion, priestly celibacy, and human sexuality.
