The
Nation’s Leading Religion Series Just Got Better
The
FAITH AND LIFE religion series has been hailed as
a breakthrough in the field of religious education. It is
a comprehensive Catholic program that combines beautiful classical
and original artwork with a solid doctrinal and scriptural
presentation in an easy-to-read and stimulating format that
is being praised by teachers, students and parents everywhere.
Keeping in mind the popularity of the original edition of
the Faith and Life textbooks, we've made only minor
alterations to the revised student texts. The majority of
the revisions within the student texts appear in the question
and answer segments of the book. Each question and answer
set is now related directly to the Catechism of the Catholic
Church (Second Edition) and tied specifically to the material
covered in each chapter. Further, the questions and answers
are now more age appropriate to each grade level.
WORDS OF PRAISE FOR
FAITH AND LIFE
“I
believe that the Faith and Life series is a very
good catechetical tool.
"Students
who finish this series will have an excellent grasp of the
deposit of faith. The material is sound and is faithful to
the Magisterium of our
Holy Church.”
—Most Rev. Thomas J. Olmsted
Bishop of Phoenix, AZ
"Our diocesan Director of Religious Education and I are
in complete agreement that this newly-revised series is a
thorough and excellent presentation of the Catholic faith.
"I
am especially impressed with the references to Sacred Scripture
and the Catechism of the Catholic Church that appear in each
lesson. The student activity book helps to reinforce what
has been taught in the class. The revised teacher manual will
prove to be particularly helpful for catechists because step
by step lesson plans are provided for each lesson. At a time
when our young people so desperately need sound teaching,
the Faith and Life catechism series is the answer
to prayers. I will strongly recommend this series for use
in our schools and parish-based religious education programs."
—Most
Reverend Michael J. Sheridan
Bishop of Colorado Springs
“I am happy to report that this series is not only complete,
it possesses excellence, in a way that itself promotes the
values of our holy faith. The sweep of the content fulfills
all goals--everything is there, from the history of salvation
across the pages of the Old and New Testaments, to sections
devoted to providing young children with clear and non-threatening
explanations of the commandments, the sacraments, the moral
life, and the structure of our Church. The value of prayer
is assisted by a brief but complete compendium of prayers
at the end of the volume. The very words unique to the Catholic
faith are methodically presented and explained, and again,
collected at the rear of the book for easy reference. Of particular
value is the accompanying activity book which, along with
the teacher¹s guide, provides more than ample resources
for the instructor to be constantly involved in the discovery
and exploration that is going on in the student’s mind.
And, perhaps most important, the level of writing is not condescending,
but rather challenges the student to improve the mind as religious
knowledge is imparted. This challenge invites the mutual participation
of student and parents in the education process, a component
which insures the best kind of religious education‹the
kind that embraces child, family and Church.
“I
do not believe any better series can be found to enhance the
teaching of the Gospel and life in the Catholic Church for
our young students and their families, and I recommend the
Faith and Life series without reservation.”
—Most
Rev. John F. Donoghue
Archbishop Emeritus of Atlanta
"The Faith and Life Series from Catholics United
for the Faith provides a clear and informative presentation
of what we as Catholics believe, live and teach. With a firm
grounding in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Faith
and Life reaffirms that the faith is indeed alive, a
gift to be cherished, and as relevant today as when Our Lord
Jesus Christ called Peter and Andrew to 'Come after me.'
"Faith
and Life continues CUF's tradition of catechesis and
witness to the Gospel."
—Most
Rev. John J. Myers
Archbishop of Newark
"If there is one thing our Catholic youth need today
and yearn for is the clear teaching of the Catholic Church.
Unfortunately, after Vatican Council II, though certainly
not because of it, the clear teaching of the faith was diminished
to the detriment of our young people. Where teaching is ambiguous,
both the knowledge about Christ and His Gospel is weakened
and moral values begin to erode. Thanks to the Faith and Life
textbooks from Catholics United for the Faith, there is now
an effective remedy available for this situation. I highly
encourage use of this fine series."
—Archbishop
James Patrick Keleher
Archbishop Emeritus of Kansas City, Kansas
“This is the one to get. Marvelous—this series
will help you follow the Holy Father’s desire that you
teach your children.”
