Synopsis

The Faith Explained Today God wants to reveal himself to you. God has a plan for you. You were born for a purpose. When you study religion, you discover the way God chose to reveal himself. You study God's plan for mankind. As you come to understand God's plan for the whole of creation, you come to understand your place in that plan. As you learn how God began to reveal himself to man long ago, you come to understand how God wants to reveal himself to you now. This book will help you study what God revealed through Jesus Christ, as the Church has believed it, preserved it and treasured it from the beginning. It is an attempt to explain what the Church has been teaching for the last 2000 years. "I can think of no one who would be happier with this update to Father Leo Trese's classic work, The Faith Explained, than Father Trese himself. This new book shows how the Church is facing the challenges of today's culture with truths that are 'ever ancient, ever new". In our time, the Catechism and papal teaching have taught in powerful ways what it means to be human as vibrant living and not just biological existence. The Catholic Church has a duty to remind the world of this rich wisdom and Father Babendreier has done that very well indeed." Fr. George William Rutler, Priest of the Archdiocese of New York City, Theologian and Author The Author Joe Babendreier is a priest of the Opus Dei Prelature. While working as a school chaplain for many years in Kenya, he has published hundreds of articles and several books, including A Question-Answer Catechism, AIDS Education for the Youth, Living a Drug-Free Life and Modern Values in the Works of G.K. Chesterton. He studied Chemical Engineering at Columbia University (New York, USA) and received a doctorate in Sacred Theology from the University of Navarre (Pamplona, Spain).
