The person we re falling in love with, over and over again, more and more deeply, is Jesus Christ. To become Catholic, you have to open your heart to the love Jesus has for you and return that love as best you can. So begins The Heart of Faith, where catechumens and candidates quickly learn that Jesus Christ will be their focus throughout their journey through the catechumenate. They will learn what they need to do to become Catholic too, of course, as they discern, pray, worship, break open the Word, and try to live their daily lives as followers of Christ.\nThey will learn in particular what living the way of Christ looks like. The author says it involves these four things: A conversion of mind and heart; An understanding of what the Church teaches; A loving heart; A true desire to be baptized (or received into the Church).\nHe guides catechumens and candidates through the entire process of preparing for baptism, the Rite of Election, the Scrutinies, keeping Lent, celebrating the Triduum, baptism (or acceptance) at the Easter Vigil, and life after baptism.\nThis is a warm and wonderful companion for parish catechumens and candidates, one they will value and treasure long after they become Catholics.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1585958174\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1585958174.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Nick Wagner\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
