Once a four-volume work, An Illustrated Catechism has been compiled into a single text, organized according to the four main parts of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: The Creed: Examines each article of the ApostlesÆ Creed, citing scriptural references The Sacraments: Helps the reader place the seven sacraments within the context of the New Testament and the important role they fulfill in the lives of Catholics The Commandments: Explains each of the Ten Commandments as a guide to Christian living Prayer: Introduces liturgical and private prayer and ends with a short collection of prayers common to our faith. With doctrinally sound explanations and artwork reminiscent of medieval illuminations, this will be a book you will want to read and display. Paperback, 6 7/8 x 9 7/8, 144 pages
