As Pope St. John Paul II made clear in his apostolic exhortation
Catechesi Tradendae, "The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in communion, in intimacy, with Jesus Christ."
The
Formed in Christ series seeks to fulfill this call, fostering intimacy with Christ through its dynamic content. Each of the texts is complemented by a comprehensive workbook designed to provide instructors with test material and direction for enhancing students' grasp of the material.
Each workbook includes:
- review and discussion questions,
- short quizzes (True/False, Fill in the Blank, Multiple Choice),
- key terms to define and spark note taking,
- essay prompts,
- scripture passage to memorize,
- a final exam,
- an answer key in the back for instructors.
God, who knows each of us intimately, calls us to holiness through our vocation. In
I Have Called You: An Introduction to Vocations, we learn about the universal call to holiness and how it can be lived out through both our particular vocation and our state in life. Through plain language and primary sources from the Church's magisterium, readers will learn Church teaching on marriage, holy orders, and the consecrated life. God asks us to live in communion and community with others--and our holiness is intimately tied to how we answer this call.
