Author Description

Product Description Why do the tasks of catechesis matter? How do I tackle controversial topics in my classes? And perhaps most importantly, why have I been called to this ministry? What does it mean for me and my life? Here, Anne Jamieson asks ten important questions about the ministry of catechesis. To explore the answers, she offers insights and knowledge from the new Directory of Catechesis. From practical questions about technology and learning spaces, to deeper questions about storytelling, beauty, and mercy, Dr. Jamieson shares the many varied ways the Directory supports and guides catechists and parish communities. With prayers, discussion questions, and ideas for action, you’ll discover the many treasures the new Directory has to offer―as “an instruction manual, a letter of encouragement, and a spiritual retreat all wrapped into one.” About the Author Anne Jamieson is one of five laypeople named by Pope Francis to the Vatican’s International Council for Catechesis. She holds a Doctor of Ministry from the University of Toronto and is the author and co-author of several parish-based resources for small groups, including A Recipe for Faith and Joining the Divine Conversation (Novalis).
