This review is from: Teaching of Christ (Paperback)

THE TEACHING OF CHRIST was the first Catholic book I ever read and it led me to become a Catholic. It has been a companion for many years. I bought my first copy while I was a Presbyterian in the 1980s. I recently bought the 5th edition. It is a wonderful exposition of the Catholic faith, covering everything from the nature of faith and the meaning of grace through the Trinity, the person and work of Jesus Christ, the role of Mary in our redemption and in the church, to the last rites and the fulfilment of all things.

The writing style is always warm and friendly while also being informative. There's always an appeal to the reader's life and loves though it is always subtle in making its appeal. I found it a great help in prayer, in spiritual formation, in understanding the gospel, and in learning what Jesus did for me. I recommend it to everybody.
