I listen to Fr Mike and Jeff Cavins most everyday and I have learned more from them in one session than 15 years of other studies . It’s perfect for everyone. Even if you are not Catholic. If you are looking to get closer to God, you will grow so quickly in knowledge in the Bible, everyday life and most important your priority in life which is God.
Praise God for all this company does.
God bless you all forever.

This is a beautiful book. I received it as a gift and loved it. I ordered one for my daughter and will soon order one for someone I will be being a confirmation sponsor for.

I really like it.
Honestly, is very well made and all. The Ascension Edition of the Catechism of the Catholic Church is an excellent resource for understanding the Catholic faith. Its clear language and comprehensive coverage of topics make it accessible to both newcomers and those familiar with theology. Also it has very good guides and schemes. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Catholic teachings. It manages to strike a balance between being comprehensive and approachable, making it a highly recommended resource for anyone seeking a reliable guide to the rich teachings of the Catholic Church.
I think a Large Print edition could be a great idea too. Also, a version in spanish, but like spain's spanish, a more global spanish, because sometimes I don't understand the slangs.
So, that's all, great book.

Timely presentation
I completed the Bible in a Year and now the Catechism in a year with Fr. Mike. He has done so much for me with both. I am a cradle Catholic, have done many Bible studies but never opened the Catechism. It has been a wonderful faith affirming journey with Fr. Mike. He presents the information in a way that gets my heart and has touched me and further committed me in my walk of faith. I will be praying for him daily for the rest of my life as he promised he would do for all who have "walked" with him. It has been a terrific 2 years!
