Descubre las Asombrosas Riquezas de la Fe Católica

¿De qué trata la Iglesia Católica? ¿Qué significa ser católico? ¿Qué creen realmente los católicos? La Iglesia Católica es extraordinaria. Fundada por Cristo mismo, la Iglesia Católica es donde encontramos a Dios en su Palabra, sus sacramentos y sus santos. La Iglesia proclama fielmente la plenitud de la fe, sin dejar ninguna verdad fuera. Proclama la plenitud de la vida, sin dejar a ninguna persona fuera. Llama a todos a arrepentirse y a creer en Dios Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo, la fuente de toda vida y salvación.

Tal vez has sido católico toda tu vida. Tal vez apenas estás empezando a explorar la Fe Católica. Dondequiera que te encuentres en tu camino, te conmoverá profundamente la belleza y la riqueza de la Iglesia Católica.

Escrito por Marcellino D’Ambrosio y Andrew Swafford, What We Believe presenta y explica las enseñanzas esenciales de la Fe Católica de una manera legible y accesible. En él descubrirás:

Lo que los católicos realmente creen
Quiénes son los católicos y cómo estamos llamados a vivir
Las bendiciones de la Creación, la redención y la novedad de vida en el Espíritu Santo
El profundo don de los sacramentos, especialmente la Sagrada Eucaristía, la fuente y cumbre de nuestra Fe
Cómo imitar a Cristo a través de la oración, la conversión personal y el amor por los demás.
¡Y más!

Every Catholic Needs to Read

Wow! This study has so many Wows. Our study group loved this and found encouragement and strength each week. The book was great and the video took it to the next level. Best study our group has done. Strong Catholics, weak Catholics, will benefit from this study. The Holy Spirit sure moved us with this.

Captivating, conversational style

I decided to order this based on a recent post on the Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) [OFFICIAL] Facebook page. It arrived by U.S. Mail within 3 days, and I started reading it right away. I love the writing style -- very friendly and informative, especially when the authors make analogies to things we all experience in everyday life. I'm a convert to Catholicism, having been raised Lutheran and then becoming a Pentecostal in my college years. I used to be VERY anti-Catholic, but I met a great many practicing Catholics when I joined the pro-life movement. My first step towards becoming Catholic was finding out that most of what I'd always been taught about Catholicism wasn't even true! As I read this book, I can picture my former self saying, "Oh, yeah. That makes perfect sense." I plan to buy several copies, to see if I can (hopefully) get some of my family members to read this book. I really think that if they had the Faith explained to them the way the authors do here, they would seriously take another look at what Catholicism has to offer.

What We Believe

This was the first time St. Laurence Adult Formation presented What We Believe. Our study group found the book to be extremely interesting followed by the video and workbook. Most of the 90 minutes class time was spent on digesting material in the book which lead to group discussion on our Church teaching and our faith journey. The class evaluation indicated all found they learned more about their religion. The study was well documented and the DVD sessions were excellent. One negative comment on evaluation was the student wished the presenters on video would speak more to audience rather then each other.

Great resource!

If you struggle to put into words what you know to be unshakable truth in your heart, this book is a blessing. It has been for me and everyone I’ve shared my Catholic Faith with!
