| A Practical Guide for Imparting
the Faith: Comprehensive Catechesis Author: David J. Wilson

 |
Those involved in catechetical and parish ministry will find the model set forth in these pages one that will enable them to better impart the faith and make it come alive in the hearts and lives of those with whom they share it. The goal of this book is to offer practical advice to those in parish ministry so that, by following the steps set forth in this process -- from laying the foundation to putting the faith into practice by serving others -- students will more easily assimilate and apply what is being taught to their various life situations. Each of its twelve chapters opens with a verse from Scripture that relates to the chapter's topic and purpose. Drawing heavily on the Church's documents and the teachings of the bishops following the Second Vatican Council, the book takes a theological concept and applies it to practical experience. Faith is a gift of God; nurturing it is our gift to Him. This book shows us how we can do that most effectively. |
