Best catechism I've read. Very easy to understand, with biblical references. 42 short lessons in question/answer format. This was the catechism that my parish priest used to teach me about the Catholic faith.
A very informative book, with a very good insight into the requirements of a Christian in the Catholic Church, and for anyone wanting to learn or refresh their Catholic knowledge.
There are many books about how to be a good Catholic. This one is cut and dry. No mercy for those who just can't pull it off so well (like me). But then again, no judgement either. Just the basics on what it all means and what is necessary to enter the realm of heaven. Some instructions are extreme though, such as "Are you ever allowed to tell a lie? No, not even a small one, not even to save someone's life or reputation." I guess it is a lonely road to heaven then.
I got this book many years ago when I was a sponsor for RCIA and kept it as a reference.
