Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) is widely recognized as one of the most brilliant theologians and spiritual leaders of our age. As Pope he authored the best-selling Jesus of Nazareth; and prior to his pontificate, he wrote many influential books that continue to remain important.

Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) is widely recognized as one of the most brilliant theologians and spiritual leaders of our age. As Pope he authored the best-selling Jesus of Nazareth; and prior to his pontificate, he wrote many influential books that continue to remain important for the contemporary Church, such as Introduction to Christianity and The Spirit of the Liturgy. Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn, the Archbishop of Vienna, is a renowned spiritual teacher and writer.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church is a beautiful work which seeks to break open the Catholic faith both for believers and those with questions about Catholicism.

Benedict XVI, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn

Benedict XVI, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn.

Cardinal Ratzinger was elected vice dean of the College of Cardinals in 1988

Ratzinger and Schonborn illuminate the Catechism's teaching on faith, morals, prayer and sacraments, and how a Catholic lives those teachings in today's world. Cardinal Ratzinger was elected vice dean of the College of Cardinals in 1988. In 2002 Pope John Paul II, approved his election as dean of the College of Cardinals. On April 8, 2005, Cardinal Ratzinger presided over the funeral of Pope John Paul II.

Acting as Pope Benedict XVI's personal representative as well as in his own capacity as archbishop, Schönborn presided . Cardinal Schönborn, 2007.

Acting as Pope Benedict XVI's personal representative as well as in his own capacity as archbishop, Schönborn presided over the Funeral of Otto von Habsburg, former Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary, in St. Stephen's Cathedral on 16 July 2011. As the Archbishop of Vienna and the head of the Catholic Church in Austria, Schönborn has faced an open and highly publicized rebellion by a movement of Austrian dissident clergy known as the Pfarrer Initiative or Priests' Initiative.

This work is immensely helpful to faithful catechists because it underlies the strengths of the "Cathechism of the Catholic Church," which is much more than a key and utterly reliable reference for the faith, because it is so carefully crafted by the bishops of many nations in its compilation and writing and faithfully represents a 2000 year old Tradition of the Church.

YOUCAT is short for Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church, a new official resource aimed at high-schoolers and young adults. 300 pages, softcover. YOUCAT: Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church (9781586175160) by Cardinal Christoph Schonborn.

This is a valuable introduction to the Catechism by the general editor of the Catechism (Schonborn) and the head of the Bishops Commission for the implementation of the Catechism (Ratzinger). Providing helpful insights on how to read and study the Catechism, this book includes a prehistory of the Catechism, an overview of its structure and contents, the major themes and methods in it, a special introduction to the four parts of the Catechism, and specific advice on how to use the Catechism. Ratzinger and Schonborn illuminate the Catechism's teaching on faith, morals, prayer and sacraments, and how a Catholic lives those teachings in today's world.
  • Beware though, the book is written by highly intellectual people, so be ready to read it as something of a text book. It supplies interesting history behind the writing of the catechism and explains why the arrangement is so unlike most books. If you desire to follow the writers logic and approach to the topic, it is almost essential. If you wish to get more use out of the catechism than merely "looking things up," this will help you learn how the doctrines connect and, if you follow the path, you will find yourself understanding each doctrine more completely.

  • The Catechism of the Catholic Church is a beautiful work which seeks to break open the Catholic faith both for believers and those with questions about Catholicism.

    This book which is a collection of short essays by then-Cardinal Ratzinger and then bishop Schönborn now Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Schönborn,serves as a backdrop to the Catechism, it explains the development of the Catehchism, the rationale for its construction, why certain things were included and others weren't. Then it goes on in a very brief but insightful manner to give a thumbnail sketch of the Catechism.

    It's a short read, and very useful in doing what the title claims.

  • This short (under 100 pages) treatise is a wonderful addition to one of the newest gems of the Church; the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Written by two true intellectual powerhouses of modern times, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (now His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI) and Bishop (now Cardinal) Christof Schönborn, it is full to brimming with insights into the motivations behind putting together a new universal catechism, what options they considered before starting such a monumental task, and how one might prepare himself before embarking on reading or teaching the Catechism.

    Don't be put off by its relatively small size...while it is not necessarily a hard read by any means, its wisdom is concentrated and will definitely deserve several read-throughs to fully appreciate. This belongs on the bookshelf right next to the Catechism itself, along with Ignatius Press' "Companion to the Catechism" right next to them both! A must-have for any serious student of Catholic doctrine.

  • required for bible study

  • Helpful general study bu someone who was there.

  • Though the book was interesting. I didn't find it especially helpful in understanding or preparing to read the CCC

  • Very comprehensive and scholastic.

  • Must read for anyone wants to better understand the Catechism of The Catholic Church.
