Inhaltsangabe:

The essentials of the Catholic Faith--
clearly & beautifully explained by one of the Church's greatest thinkers!

Although St. Thomas Aquinas was one of the Church's most intellectually powerful theologians, few know that he also wrote a great deal that's well within the reach of ordinary believers.

In fact, as you'll find in The Aquinas Catechism, St. Thomas had a remarkable ability to communicate the Faith -- including both its most complex and its simplest elements -- in plain language. Here you'll find his deeply insightful, straightforward, and clear explanations of the Apostles' Creed, the Commandments, and the Sacraments -- as well as of the Our Father and the Hail Mary.

In other words, this book will give you a basic course in the Catholic Faith, taught by the Church's greatest theologian.

Let him help you:

• Gain a better grasp of Church doctrine
• Pray with greater fervor and understanding
• Receive the Sacraments more worthily
• Learn what God requires of you and why
• Explain Church teachings to non-Catholic friends
• Discover the scriptural sources of our Catholic Faith
• Find remedies for moral weaknesses that still afflict you
• Glimpse the greatness of the Church's supernatural mission
• And much more!

Above all, let St. Thomas teach you how to explain, defend, and live your Faith . . . with the clear-sighted wisdom of a saint!
