The Catholic Way: Faith for Living Today

Excellent !!!!!

This book provides more than insight to the Catechism of The Catholic Church. It is a wonderful commentary that when used with the catechism that truly "opens" up the teachings of the Church. This is a must read for all Catholics.

Useful Reference

This book is extremely informative when used as a reference guide. Having spent my entire life as a Catholic and now teaching adult catechism, I often refer to this book for teaching ideas on major themes, i.e. the mortal/deadly sins, the seven sacraments, the meaning of the Lords Prayer. It is not as useful for someone trying to learn about Catholicism. Though the material is not intended for experts, it will not be helpful to a novice. As with many faiths, the first step to teaching someone about your beliefs is to lead by example through deed and word. For the finer points on Catholicism, I recommend this book as a reference, but not as a casual beach read.

A Great Resource for Continuing Education Courses and RCIA

This book was written some years ago, even before its author became the Cardinal Archbishop of Washington, but it retains its usefulness and effectiveness nonetheless. It is especially handy for the ordinary "John or Jane Doe" Catholic who is interested in learning more about their faith. It can be read in conjunction with the Catechism of the Catholic Church or the U.S. Catholic Catechism for Adults. It is a very good and useful book by a noteworthy catechist in Cardinal Donald Wuerl of Washington. Those who teach in the RCIA program might find this book particularly helpful, either as a teaching resource or for a class textbook.
