highly recommended

Good for adults as well!

This is an excellent source for faith formation. The title says it's for youth and although some of the language is geared toward teens, I would highly recommend it for adults as well. Its content is good, different sections of the book are very useful for catechists as well as the reader, the illustrations are beautiful and the layout was done very well.

Excellent resource

It's getting harder and harder these days to find good information on the Church that isn't tainted by polemic. I have used this resource as part of confirmation programs, RCIA, high school classes, and had people tell me it was great just to peruse through as a reference. Faithful to the Catechism and the broader Tradition, but also engaging and apropos to the interests and questions of most teens. I highly recommend it as a complement to the Catholic Youth Bible for every teen.

I highly recommend it for youth and adults

"The Catholic Faith Handbook for Youth" is a very good resource for youth and adults wanting to learn more about the Catholic faith and tradition. It is up to date in it's theology. It provides not only the basic catechism of the church, but also gives great stories and descriptions of some of the lives of the saints. It is easy and enjoyable to read and understand. I use the book for my catechists to help them to pass on our tradition and beliefs to the children and youth they encounter in a language that can be understood.

Excellent overview of the Catholic Faith

I use this text as the confirmation text for Confirmation Candidates I sponsor in the Episcopal Church. The text succinctly presents the Catholic tradition of Christianity and provides ample material for discussion, thought and contemplation. It is not written for academics, yet it isn't banal or overly simplistic in its explanation of core dogma and doctrine. Very good for students from all traditions of Catholicism be they Anglican or Roman.

reviews: page 1, 2

With clear, concise information about the beliefs and practices of the Catholic Church--organized to parallel the Catechism of the Catholic Church so that young people can appreciate the richness of Catholic teaching--this handbook is the most comprehensive available. Teens will appreciate the articles and stories that shed light on issues important to them. Useful sidebars give quick, easy access to Catholicism's basics and include "Pray It!" "Looking Back," "Saintly Profiles," "Did You Know?" and "Live It!"

A full-color design and over 100 photos make the book lively and interesting for teens. Use either the hardcover or paper edition with your parish program, school class, or youth group--or give it as a gift!
