His story, like the stories at the start of each chapter in the United States Catholic Catechism for Adults, give us a glimpse into the lives of Catholics who lived out their faith throughout our country's history. Each chapter in the Catechism for Adults includes a story, teaching, application to U.S. culture, discussion questions, a doctrinal summary and prayer to lead the reader to a deepening faith. The Catechism for Adults is an excellent resource for preparation of catechumens in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults and for ongoing catechesis of adults.

This catechism achieves that powerful reverberative effect by proclaiming the faith and teaching Catholic doctrine. These texts, prepared by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, contain a clear formulation of essential Christian truths. A useful tool for strengthening faith and fidelity to basic Catholic beliefs.\ \
