Papal documents might seem to be the domain of theologians and academics, but for catechists, they’re a wellspring of inspiration and wisdom. They also hold the key to understanding catechists’ roles in the New Evangelization, and how catechists might echo the Good News in our modern era. Here, with the help of works from Pope Paul VI to Pope Francis, Professor Zsupan-Jerome guides catechists in taking a step back and pondering the “big picture” of their ministry and their role in the church’s deepest identity: sharing the gospel message of Jesus. This inspiring and energizing book reveals much about the life-giving spirit of catechesis: from the moment catechists are called to witness, to each glimmer of God’s saving love that they reveal to others.
