The Church: Christ in the World Today, 2nd Edition
Student Text

Developed for Curriculum Framework Course 4: Jesus Christ's Mission Continues in the Church.

Guides the students in exploring and understanding the Catholic Church, as well as its origin, structure, and mission. Additionally, the course addresses the roles of the hierarchy, those in religious life, and the laity in supporting the mission of the Church. Particular attention is paid to the global presence of the Church as a light to all people. The student books provide all the catechetical content needed for the course and explain Catholic theology in a clear, accessible, and engaging manner. The learning experiences and the students' understanding are enhanced through the inclusion of a variety of supplemental sidebars. The "Pray It!" sidebars help the students to explore and deepen their prayer lives, the "Live It!" sidebars help the students to connect the teaching to their daily lives, and the "Catholic Wisdom" sidebars provide insight into our Catholic faith, often presented in the words of important Catholic figures from the past and the present. Additional sidebars expand on the content, addressing the Scriptures, doctrine, the liturgy, and more. The student books in the second edition have shifted fro a section-part-article structure to a unit-chapter-article structure where sections become units and a part is now a chapter. Paperback, 6 x 9, 272 pages. (©2017)
