Summary: Terrific Resource Book
Comment: I have used this book for the past five years in teaching an adult confirmation class in my parish. I especially like how it is organized: essay, questions about the essay, responses to the questions, the experience of the Christian community, and personal profile. Best of all it quickly gets to the heart of Christian Faith - one's relationship with God and in particular Jesus. I have yet to have a class that did not benefit from using Becoming Catholic.

Summary: Fascinating guide, but meant for group study.
Comment: This is a study guide, and it teaches through essays, followed by questions. The subjects are thought-provoking, and are presented in a preview/questions/review-and-explanation format. The writing is thought-provoking: How, one is asked, has God spoken to you, personally? Faith is presented as a process, one which is life-long. This book is not meant for a solitary reader, it is meant to be taught to a group which is guided by an educated director. Also, it is meant to cover certain basic doctrines, not to be a complete catechism. I wish I could find a class with whom I could share this book. It is a good experience when read alone, but it would be greatly enhanced by group discussion and sharing of thoughts.
