"They laughed when I said I could name all 27 books of the New
Testament . . . but after I named them all in order, plus the 46
books of the Old Testament, they begged me to show them how I did
it."
Memorize the Faith! will teach you and your children how to
remember anything, but it's particularly useful to those involved
in religious education: catechists and converts, CCD teachers, RCIA
members, and homeschoolers of all ages.
Thanks to these delightful pages, you and your children can now
tap into the power of the classical memory system that helped St.
Thomas Aquinas become the Church's preeminent theologian, and made
it easier for him to become one of its greatest saints.
By the time you finish this book, you will have memorized
dozens of key teachings of the church, along with hundreds of
precepts, traditions, theological terms, Scripture verses, and
other elements of the faith that every good Catholic needs to know
by heart.
"Lord, teach us to pray"--the petition of the most intimate
followers of Jesus--remains the heartfelt petition of every
Christian disciple down to the present day.
The divine gift of the Our Father is the foundation of our life
of prayer, but it is only the beginning of how Jesus leads us
through himself to the Father: then as now, he teaches the Church
to pray, and he does the same for us in our individual prayer
lives. Shane Kapler's Through, With, and In Him offers practical
ways to open up this vital dimension of our spiritual lives,
instructing us in how the Church's sacraments and private devotions
unite us to the prayer continually issuing forth from the heart of
Christ.
Jesus will continue to teach us if only we open our ears and
eyes to his words and example. In this, as in all things, Christ is
the Door. This new book by the author of The God Who is Love brings
us to the threshold of that Door, and beyond. Open this book, and
learn to pray anew.
