This book is an introduction to the main elements of the Catholic Church for those who would like to better understand their own faith and to participate in the Church’s life of faith more fully.

Using the lived experience of well-known individuals, from St Thomas Aquinas to St Joan of Arc to Blessed John XXIII, it explores the many different aspects of the faith that we share. The main chapters of the book correspond to the four sections of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (concerning prayer, the sacraments, the commandments and the Creed), further illuminating our discovery of what we believe.
