Believing in Jesus

BELIEVING IN JESUS is more than just another catechism. It is a book which captures the Christian's continuing journey of faith, ever-new, ever-alive, yet founded on the steadfast love of God for us, his people. It is a book that is sure to make your life a more Christian life through better understanding. Covering the complete spectrum of Catholic faith, and centering on Jesus, this book clearly embodies the spirit of Christian belief and practice. In five major sections and 27 separate chapters, Father Foley leads the reader on a journey from earliest Old Testament times through a world "starting over" in Jesus to the "end time" when Jesus will come again and we will share fully in His life. In effect, the present volume brings the talent, and the strong personal faith, of the author to the task of painting an overview of Catholic faith. What Father Foley accomplished for our understanding of the sacraments in his bestselling SIGNS OF LOVE he does here for the basic truths of our faith, making them accessible in a lively style which meets the needs of today's Catholic. From the practical editor of the widely used SAINT OF THE DAY comes a volume which will provide a usable text for those being introduced to the faith for the first time as well as those seeking a tool for recommitment to the faith. Combining the brevity and clarity of a catechism with the warmth of the popular approach, Father Foley has brought to this book the experience of many years of retreat work, adult education and pastoral ministry., ISBN13:B000CDKK64 ISBN10:B000CDKK64 Material Type:paperback
