Catechesis in the Catholic Church

This course will explore the content, meaning and pastoral application of catechesis in the Catholic Church according to the new Directory for Catechesis, with highlights from some other post-conciliar texts. Informed by the Catechism of the Catholic Church, emphasis will be placed upon the tasks, goals, and sources of catechesis, with special attention to our digital culture. It is designed to support and advance the work of catechists, religious educators, lay pastoral associates, and students who are preparing to engage in catechetical ministry.
