Living Faith Fully is a three book series
for secondary RE students, which explores what it means to be a
faith-filled person in the context of todays world, in light
of Catholic belief and practice.
Key Theme
Underpinning each book is the central question what does it
mean to live faithfully as a Catholic in todays world?
The texts:
- Are written to promote knowledge about faith
- Have a liturgical focus
- Explore the moral dimension and challenge of Catholicism
- Are oriented toward prayer and reflection
- Are written to be used as a catechetical resource in Catholic
schools and parishes
As a catechetical resource, the books have been prepared in light
of the context young people find themselves today. This is in line
with the aim expressed in the General Directory for Catechesis,
that such resources need to be linked with real the life of the
generation to which they are addressed, showing close acquaintance
with its anxieties and questionings, struggles and hopes.
