The Fourth And Final Volume . . . Jan 12, 2007 . . . of a simply OUTSTANDING series!!!
This is simply the single best Catholic Moral Theology textbook for High School aged students that I have ever seen in my life. It would be equally useful on the collegiate level.
I was first made aware of "The Didache" series about two months ago, when I learned that a local Catholic High School had chosen to use this title. One of my closest friends, the theology teacher at my son's High School, then ordered the entire series, and will be implementing the first two volumes for the next school year.
As a professional theologian -- and as a professional educator -- I can only sit back and be amazed. This book explains the moral theology and teaching of the Catholic Church in a format which is easily understood. It is thoroughly faithful to traditional Catholic morality -- and to the Magisterium. It is brilliantly illustrated and laid out. As someone who examines texts for a living -- it simply blew me away. I will be ordering a copy for my parish library as soon as possible. I only wish that a parish edition, suitable for CCD classes (and the limitations under which they labor) could be forthcoming. I'd love to use this in confirmation classes!
Very, very highly recommended!
