Jem Sullivan has written a terrific companion to the new U.S. Adult Catholic Catechism that will be a welcome resource to anyone charged with leading a faith-formation program or discussion group. Each of the catechism's 36 chapters is given a two-page plan for an hour-long session. Included are summaries of doctrinal teachings, reflections, discussion questions, prayers, and excellent suggestions for further reading. And unlike the U.S. Adult Catholic Catechism, the guide contains references to the Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Highly recommended.

UPDATE: After spending additional time with this book, I'd probably knock off a star or two. While the format is very good, combining prayer, doctrine, and reflection, far too often the discussion questions are of the navel-gazing variety. A perfect example is found in the chapter on Baptism: "What does Baptism mean to you personally?" Let it suffice to say that the questions would benefit from a more cognitive approach to learning.

I am a product of the Pre-Vatican II Baltimore Catechism and the days when our Catholic education ended at Confirmation in our teens. The first and second editions of the Cathechism of the Catholic Church were the best thing that ever happened to enable adults to better understand the Church.

I signed up for an online course concerning the Catechism and was surprised to find that the Church had made culturally specific guides for studying the big Catchism. For my course, though nor required, I also ordered the available study guide. It helps me structure my study of the Adult Catechism for the United States with tips and beautiful references for further reading. This is an outstanding accompaniment to the U.S. Adult Catholic Catechism.

I went through RICA but became ill and was not comfirmed. A year later now, I purchased this based on content and reviews. I took it to my priest and he said it is a very good course. I was happy that I made a wise purchase and continue my journey of faith and will be confirmed into the faith next month.

If you are going to be studying the United States Catholic Catechism for Adults as a group this is a great companion guide. I would not say that is necessary since the Catholic Catechism for Adults is easy to read and includes some questions for discussions but the Study Guide gives you an outline for each session including prayers, recommended readings and additional discussion questions.

I am reviewing the catechism privately, and this Study Guide is helpful. But it would be ideal for a group who were studying the catechism together.

I ordered this Catechism for a group of people who want to study and it is just what we need. Each chapter covers a specific topic and has discussion questions as well.
