Scott Hahn: Catechism and the Year of Faith

Oct 11, 2012

Welcome to the "Year of Faith," which officially begins today (Oct 11. 2012), marking the 50th anniversary of the start of Vatican II, and the 20th anniversary of the publication of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. 

After teaching Ca

tholic theology for a quarter century, I have yet to find a more "systematic and organic synthesis of the fundamental content of the faith," as Benedict XVI described the Catechism. Blessed John Paul II called it "one of the most important fruits of Vatican II, an indispensable tool, and a sure norm for teaching the faith." 

Why not devote this Year of Faith to reading the Catechism all the way through... Just two pages a day, and you'll be done by the end of the Year of Faith. You won't regret it.
