The Catechism of Trent was published in 1566. It was commissioned by the Council of Trent during the period of the counter-Reformation. The document's main task was to clarify the doctrine of the church for the clergy. It enjoyed widespread use within the Roman Catholic world and was considered the authoritative guide for the faithful up until the most recent catechism, which was released in 1992.

Ninety percent of Americans own a copy of the Bible, and while it's the most widely read book, it's also the least understood. Regardless of your religion, understanding the Bible brings much of Western art, literature, and public discourse into greater focus. The Bible for Dummies appeals to people of all faiths, as well as those who don't practice any particular religion, by providing interfaith coverage of the entire Bible and the often fascinating background information that makes the Bible come alive.

Dr. Greg Bottaro explains how mindfulness can help us become aware of the present moment and accept it. Catholic mindfulness is a way to practically trust God more in our lives. Instead of separating faith from day-to-day life, mindfulness helps bridge the gap so we can feel the sense of safety and peace God intends us to have. Following the exercises in this audiobook, you'll discover how mindfulness can help you be more present to everything in your life from a trip to the grocery store or relaxing with friends to listening more attentively to a homily.

Story
In The Bible Is a Catholic Book, Jimmy Akin shows how the Bible cannot exist apart from the church. In its origins and its formulation, in the truths it contains, in its careful preservation over the centuries, and in the prayerful study and elucidation of its mysteries, Scripture is inseparable from Catholicism. This is fitting, since both come from God for our salvation. If you're a Catholic who sometimes gets intimidated by the Bible, The Bible Is a Catholic Book will help you better understand and take pride in this gift that God gave the world through the church.

Publisher's Summary
Grasp the beliefs and practices about one of the world's oldest religions
Catholicism All-in-One for Dummies is your all-inclusive guide to the Catholic Church and its billions of followers. You'll learn how Catholicism came to be, how it's practiced, and where it stands socially and politically as you explore the rich history and diverse culture surrounding this major religion. Clear, friendly writing takes you inside a mass to understand what happens there, and walks you through a tour of the saints, holidays, the Bible, and the Vatican. Special coverage includes the role of women in the Church and in the Bible, and the tremendous popularity of Pope Francis, who has quickly become one of the Vatican's most-loved leaders. You'll dive into the beliefs and practices of Catholicism and get answers to the most common, confusing, controversial, and worrisome questions.
Catholicism is quickly expanding beyond its 1.2 billion followers, with growing numbers of priests and new baptisms every year. Attendance at papal events has tripled to 6.6 million since Pope Francis' election in 2013, and Catholicism has become the largest religious denomination on the planet by a wide margin. This audiobook explains what makes Catholicism so alluring, giving you insight into the religion and everything it entails.

Villanelle was right: this was BORING!!
I felt sorry for the narrator. I'd listened to him reading 'The Bible for Dummies', and enjoyed it. He caught the humour and relayed it competently. However, with this work, I felt nothin0g but irritation. It was swamped by interminable lists, of rules and regulations, of saints, of popes, of colours of vestments ... yawn ...
I thought, at one point, that it might make a good primer for some poor sucker wanting to convert to Catholicism, or for a pupil studying for a UK GCSE in Religion at a Catholic school, but then I wondered if they might be asleep if they'd managed to make it past the first few pages. My personal entry into this title, at the age of 63, having been brought up as a child in a rabid Roman Catholic setting, and lapsed when I was 15, was a mature wish to enlighten myself about the Abrahamic faiths. I warmed as I listened to the descriptions of Judaism and the Torah, but this attempt to describe Catholicism left me cold. I was transported straight back to memories of parish priests in black suits, with the faint, but tell-tale odour of stale, unwashed clothes, booze and fags, which was re-enforced when I looked back and checked the authors - all reverends in the institution.
It would have been more enlightened on the part of Wiley to have enlisted the efforts of one or two lay Catholics, to give their views of real life, post Vatican II, on the Pill; LGBT, politics, etc, from an RC perspective. There was a token section on Pope Francis, but I think the whole work needs to be re-written. In fact, I've realised that, in the way this title has been offered as an 'all-in-one' publication of 5 'books', it reflects the Church's bungling efforts over time to cobble together the canon of gospels ...
If you're on the way in, go for it; if you're looking for an objective account of Catholicism (in the context of the Abrahamic faiths), this is not the book for you.
