The Most Reverend Christoph Sch–nborn, Bishop of Vienna, Austria, and the man picked by Pope John Paul II to compile and edit the Catechism of the Catholic Church, presents a six-part series on this monumental document and worldwide bestseller. No one is as intimately familiar with the Catechism or as eminently qualified to explain it.
Hosted by Dr. John Haas of the St. Charles Forum series, and filmed by EWTN in Vienna, this is perfect for study groups, adult education, high school or college religion class, or any individuals who want to really delve into this profound and beautiful synthesis of the Catholic Faith. This series covers the history of the Catechism, including the process used to compose it and the hopes and expectation of its writers. It reviews the four pillars of the Catechism: what the Catholic Church believes (Creed), celebrates (Sacraments), lives (Commandments) and how we pray (Our Father). Bishop Sch–nborn then discusses ways in which the Catechism can be used to deepen a personís faith.
