Pope Foreword
Make a sacrifice of your time for it! That is my heartfelt desire. This catechism was not written to please you. It will not make life easy for you, because it demands of you a new life. It places before you the Gospel message as the "pearl of great value" Mt So I beg you: Study this Catechism with passion and perseverance. Make a sacrifice of you time for it! Study it in the quiet of your room; read it with a friend; form study groups and networks; share with each other on the Internet.
By all means continue to talk with each other about your faith An excellent book for all who want to know more about the Catholic Faith, aimed at the Youth however essential reading for all. Not fussy, not over academic.
Honest and to the point. This is an excellent and comprehensive volume on the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Youcat: Catecismo joven de la Iglesia Católica
Very user friendly and clear in its dealings with matters of faith. It is exactly what is needed to alleviate the ignorance and confusion of those who have had the misfortune not to have had a decent catechism in their faith formation. Youcat is well written, giving necessary detail without confusion. I'm presently studying for a diploma in The Catholic Catechism and use Youcat regularly to either enhance or tease out difficult passages.
The illustrations are colourful and modern. The cross reference method is excellent. Hopefully it will be used in the school curriculum for religious studies. Catholic Christianity, whilst not in direct conflict, seems to be going the other way, distilling down the 2, articles of the Catechism to in the Compendium and now to in YOUCAT, the official catechism for World Youth Day.
As an Evangelical Catholic in Anglican tradition I valued this simplified presentation of the creed, sacraments, commandments and prayer which like the Compendium has the advantage of question and answer form under the four traditional headings: The questions in the Youth Catechism are direct and tough - on premarital sexual relationships, homosexual practice or women as priests - with straight answers hard hitting on those issues, but also on human trafficking, sexual abuse, anti-Semitism, child soldiers, social injustice, pornography, prudishness, self-mutilation, tax dodges, vandalism and the glorification of violence.
There is much vital and constructive thought and counsel set out on doctrine, worship, ethics and prayer and a good index to make for further accessibility. As such it distils centuries of theological and moral reasoning down into pages making space for inspirational quotations on the page margins. It is an accessible book that will serve those teaching Christianity in churches and schools across the world in its main lines.
Much as I like the standard version of the Catechism of the Catholic Church and I am a theologian, it is not appropriate for general catechesis because the language is still theological. Youcat fills the catechetical slot admirably for all age groups being attractively presented with illustrations, interesting marginal quotes, accessible language, and is cross-referenced to the standard Catechism.
If anyone finds the standard version rather too much, buy Youcat without hesitation and learn more about the Catholic faith.
