The Teaching of Christ by Bishop Donald W. Wuerl

Translated into 13 languages and used worldwide, The Teaching of Christ has been widely used and profoundly influential throughout the universal Church since it was published 25 years ago.

This fifth edition updates this perennial bestseller with the latest Church documents. Now as always, faithful to official Catholic teaching, this is the complete Catechism for adults that is presented in an easy-to-understand style."The enduring success of The Teaching of Christ rests with its ability to present the whole truth of the Christian faith with enthusiasm and joy, helping the reader to open his heart to the merciful love of Jesus Christ and His saving truth." -Dario Cardinal Castrillon Hoyos Prefect, Vatican Congregation for the Clergy

"For more than a quarter of a century The Teaching of Christ has been available as a remarkably comprehensive and insightful expression of the Catholic Faith for adults. By an updating of this text with the incorporation of the teaching of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, it becomes an even more valuable tool.

"I commend the writers and the editors, some of whom have recently returned to the Lord, for the remarkable and reliable text they make available for adults who seek a deeper systematic understanding of their faith. I recommend it highly."-Most Reverend Alfred C. Hughes, Archbishop of New Orleans, Chairmen of the Bishops' Committee to Oversee the Use of the Catechism of the Catholic Church

"For nearly four decades, The Teaching of Christ has served as an excellent resource for the faith instruction of adults and young adults. Correlated to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, this catechism presents with clarity the complete vision of Catholic faith and life. This is a rich tool for the ministry of catechesis."-Most Reverend Daniel M. Buechlein,O.S.B>, Archbishop of Indianapolis, Chairmen of the Bishops' Committee on Catechesis

"Catechists, in particular, will find The Teaching of Christ a very helpful resource. Similar in format to the catechism, this publication not only presents the truths of the Faith in an appealing and readable style, it also provides many rich resources in the seven appendixes."-Lourdes Sheehan, RSM, Associate General Secretary, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops
