Tradivox Vol 19: Germany

This penultimate volume of the Tradivox collection represents the last catechism to be issued by the German bishops before the opening of the Second Vatican Council in 1962. The most notable quality of this catechism is its unique and eminently useful structure, demonstrating an extensive consultation with experts in both teaching and pastoral ministry. Nearly every lesson begins with a thematic scripture reference, and is followed by a more expanded catechesis, reflection questions, points for apologetics and making personal resolutions, resonances within scripture, history, and liturgy, student activities, and a concluding verse or exhortation. Standing as a kind of historical marker on the threshold of this major methodological shift, we are pleased to offer readers this new edition of A Catholic Catechism.
