Jesus, the Master Catechist: Twelve Lessons from Jesus on Being a Catechist

Catechists learn best by watching others-master catechists. And there is no better Master Catechist than Jesus himself. This engaging and informative guide examines how we can become better catechists by following Jesus' example. Taking lessons from Pope Francis' The Joy of the Gospel, The General Directory for Catechesis, and the gospels themselves, we learn how to draw people around us, speak clearly of the Father's love, and extend God's endless forgiveness to our students. We learn about praying for our students and how to lead them to the brink of the paschal mystery, trusting in divine grace for the rest. An indispensible book to help catechists integrate Jesus' gospel message into the whole of their being.
