Basic text for group discussion

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago

I found this to be an excellent introductory text for use in both CCD classes and RCIA gatherings. I have used it for several years. Rewrites and newer editions have proven to be equally satisfactory. It is footnoted and referenced, uncomplicated but thorough in examination of basic doctrine. It does prompt discussion with the questions at the close of each chapter. The reader is treated with respect without expectations that they be theologians. It worked well for High School students as well as adult groups.

I haven't finished reading this book, but I know that I will. Pennock writes in an easy style that is uncomplicated and captivating. I purchased this book as an aid to a class I had been taking. I have skipped around and found it informative. It includes a Catholic Handbook for Faith, Scripture Index, Glossary of selected terms and each chapter has a summary, reflection, & review and discussion questions.
