As Pope St. John Paul II made clear in his apostolic exhortation
Catechesi Tradendae, "The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in communion, in intimacy, with Jesus Christ."
The Formed in Christ series seeks to fulfill this call, fostering intimacy with Christ through its dynamic content. Each of the texts is complemented by a comprehensive workbook designed to provide instructors with test material and direction for enhancing students' grasp of the material.
The Word of Truth: An Introduction to Sacred Scripture examines God's gift of Sacred Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. Readers will find a systematic study of the Word of God, including what divine Revelation is and how it has been transmitted to us, as well as the interpretation of Sacred Scripture and its importance. Historical context, important events, and crucial connections are laid out in an easy-to-read format, and the beauty of the Church's teaching on divine Revelation is highlighted with the use of extensive readings from magisterial documents.
