Although St. Thomas Aquinas was one
of the Church’s most intellectually powerful theologians, few
know that he also wrote a great deal that’s well within the
reach of ordinary believers.
In fact, as you’ll find in The
Aquinas Catechism, St. Thomas had a remarkable ability to
communicate the Faith — including both its most complex and its
simplest elements — in plain language. Here you’ll find his
deeply insightful, straightforward, and clear explanations of
the Apostles’ Creed, the Commandments, and the Sacraments — as
well as of the Our Father and the Hail Mary.
In other words, this book will give
you a basic course in the Catholic Faith, taught by the Church’s
greatest theologian.
Let him help you:
Gain a better grasp of
Church doctrine
Pray with greater fervor
and understanding
Receive the Sacraments more
worthily
Learn what God requires of
you and why
Explain Church teachings to
non-Catholic friends
Discover the scriptural
sources of our Catholic Faith
Find remedies for moral
weaknesses that still afflict you
Glimpse the greatness of
the Church’s supernatural mission
And much more!
Above all, let St. Thomas teach you
how to explain, defend, and live your Faith . . . with the
clear-sighted wisdom of a saint!
"St. Thomas’s great influence has been
a function of the simplicity and clarity of his writing."
Karl Keating
Catholicism and Fundamentalism
"A marvelous companion and comparison
document for the contemporary Church's Catechism."
The Very Rev. Peter Stravinskas
The Catholic Answer
"St. Thomas wrote that 'three things
are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to
believe, to know what he ought to desire, and to know what he
ought to do.’ The wisdom and life-changing power of this maxim
will reverberate mightily in all who ponder the truths contained
in The Aquinas Catechism."
