Discover Catholicism and its role in our world
Teach Yourself Catholicism is a comprehensive guide to the Catholic faith. It begins by focusing on the essential beliefs of Catholicism before delving into the history of the Catholic Church and the roots of its traditions and practices. Considering the key influences in over 2000 years of fascinating history, you will soon have a good understanding of, amongst other things, the role of Jesus and Mary, the Papacy, the Great Schism and the Reformation. Peter Stanford also focuses on the church in the modern world, assessing the Second Vatican Council and the key debates and questions that surround the religion today: Why has the Catholic church been so riled by the Da Vinci Code? How does Catholicism relate to our world today? Is there such a thing as a Catholic morality? Never shying away from difficult questions, Teach Yourself Catholicism is an informative and engaging read.
