Basic Preparation
|
|
Here's what you read to find out the real
teaching of the Catholic Church. It may seem a bit intimidating at first,
but once you get used to the structure it is invaluable! |
|
The Compendium is a quick reference to the
Catechism. It is written in a question-and-answer format. It is right to the
point, but lacks the inspiration of the original. |
|
|
We have a beautiful, expensive family Bible,
but this inexpensive paperback is the one we actually read. We can take it
everywhere without worrying about its being damaged. |
|
We've found no better way to
prepare for Sunday Mass than reading our Sunday missal. It has all the
readings for every liturgical season, complete description of the Mass, and
lots of extras! |
|
Favorite Classics
|
| |
There are numerous translations
of this amazing poem. We read this one and thoroughly enjoyed it. Make sure
you go through the entire journey, from hell through heaven, to get the most
out of the experience! |
|
Classic autobiography of the bad
boy turned saint.
|
| C.
S. Lewis - practically everything he published!
|
|
The book Screwtape Letters is a
quick, easy read. This audio book adds a new, chilling dimension; Joss Ackland absolutely oozes evil.
|
|
A series of essays which are easy
to read yet thought-provoking.
|
| What you
always wanted to know about Catholicism (at least, we did!) |
| |
Johnson lets us know the meaning
behind the tradition. A reader-friendly explanation of Catholic basics.
|
|
A reminder of just how important
the Catholic Church has been throughout
|
| |
Okay, it looks huge. But
considering that it covers 2000 years, it really is concise. We refer to it
frequently to get a flavor of what was going on with the Church during any
era. |
|
It doesn't get much more
straight-forward than this. A very helpful reference for all of us!
