Where it all starts

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2020

As a child growing up in the late 1950s and early 1960s, I attended Catholic schools and the Baltimore Catechism was the "go-to" book. After Vatican II, I got the new Catechism intended to update me on my home theology. Being single at the time, and very lustful in my thoughts, I found the new Catechism very comforting, in other words if giving in to my own lusts was part of me, then that was okay. The idea was to be a "good" person. Then one day, I was sitting in Roman Catholic new Mass listening to the priest's sermon on ecumenism, and suddenly I had a brain infarction, and after Mass, said to a woman who had attended divinity school, "I think Vatican II was a mistake." She reared up as much as an elderly lady can rear up and said: "Oh no. Vatican II was too long in coming...." Well I knew, right then and there, we were of two different religions. I then switched parishes to a traditional Roman Catholic one with Latin Mass and ordered a Baltimore Catechism. Oh man. I was so relieved. This was the real deal. And when I read about all the lustful stuff I had been doing, I headed straight for the confessional. I am okay now. Back to that old-time religion, where right is right and wrong is wrong and no amount of ecumenism is going to change that.

We use this catechism for our preschoolers as part of our homeschool routine. There are three levels to Saint Joseph Baltimore Catechism, this is the first level. It is intended for children around preschool age, so prior Ron first Communion. We enjoy using it, so far. It’s very orthodox, which is important to us. We especially enjoy the old-fashioned pictures.

If you're Catholic and teaching your children about the faith this is an amazing resource. Last year we did the first communion catechism and it was right on par for the level of understanding for or child. Looking forward to this year using this one and learning more myself. As a convert it is a wonderful refresher and sometimes I learn bits I never even knew. Super fast shipping as well. Thank you!

Was the Textbook of Choice in our Parish's Religious Ed Program. Everyone seemed to be in agreement. The age-appropriate textbook is used for the different age groups. The program uses this in conjunction with Gospel Weeklies.

I got this for my girls they are 9 and 10 and they have enjoyed it so far. It’s easy to read for them and understand as well easy for me to explained to them the tenenats of our Catholic Faith. Highly recommend getting this especially if you are falling away Catholic and want to begin to understand the faith or if you are a Protestant brother or sister and have been curious to know what Catholics really believed!

I purchased these books to teach my granddaughter CCD. I am 78 years old and this is the same book with the same chapters and lessons I learned from when I was young from the nuns. The books hasn't changed and has been around for years.

Praise The Lord, Always

A real joy to have

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2013

I had this Catechism way back when I was in the my early years of Catholic schooling, the only thing different, was that the pictures were in black and white, of which I use to color if I didn't get caught. This version was updated back in the 60's before the bishops, for some very strange reason, had these removed from the schools and the CCD classes and failed to replace them with anything proper, which has given us 50 years of uneducated Catholic people on the Teachings of the Church and we are now reaping what the bishops have foolishly sowed, uniformed Catholics. Either this catechism (#1) or the follow-up (#2) should be in each and every Catholic home, even if they don't have children there and it should be studied every day, plus a good Catholic Bible (dated before the 70's) should be on hand to study the scripture passages that the Church is using. The normal Baltimore Catechism is the same, only without the pictures, of which these are in color. +JMJ+

Delightful

This catechism is very clear and detailed for children. I have thoroughly enjoyed using it for our Sunday catechism class. I especially like the discussion questions, and true/false, fill in the blank, and extension readings to use as homework. I wish I had this catechism growing up. Nonetheless, I've been learning more and more about the faith.

I saw this book being recommended on YouTube. I took a gamble and I am very pleased with the book. I remember my religious instruction in my younger years and this book managed to fill in the blanks for me all these years later, whilst I help my daughter through her religious instruction.

It is written in simple text, with question and answer after most subjects. Very cleverly written.

The pictures in this our phenomenal, they raise your heart and mind to God. The teaching is simple but profound, ready to memorize. I hope this Catechism spreads widely again, it is so much richer than many modern ones produced in this generation.
