‘This book represents the continuing mandate to teach and expound the Christian faith for which the college was originally established’. The Irish Catholic
Maynooth College Reflects on Catechesis in the Life of the Church considers wider aspects of catechesis, including insights from the psychology of human development, the mission of the catechist, and the major resources at hand for the catechist. It explores ways of bringing catechesis alive, with chapters on theoretical and practical approaches to the communication of the truths of the faith. It discusses the Church’s social teaching, theological anthropology, as well as contemporary lessons for catechists from St Augustine. And finally, a section on the spirituality of catechesis focuses on prayer and the scriptures as nourishment for the catechetical task.
