About this title

Synopsis

In this readable presentation of the essential Roman Catholic beliefs, Father Strange outlines the whole of doctrinal teaching: Christ's birth, death, and resurrection; the Church, including the questions of revelation, scripture, and tradition; the papacy; the sacraments; the mass; morality; love and hope; Mary; and the perception of God as Father, Son, and Spirit.

Review

"A very nice piece, with an intelligible and challenging perspective upon living in faith."--Ronald Burke, University of Nebraska at Omaha

"The best introductory text that I have found: a clearly and elegantly written, balanced approach to controversial issues, sensitive to questions and concerns of today's students. Please keep this book in print for a long time."--Jon Nilson, Loyola University of Chicago
