About this audiobook
“What I propose to do in this audiobook is to take you on a guided exploration of the Catholic world, but not in the manner of a docent, for I am not interested in showing you the artifacts of Catholicism as though they were dusty objets d’art in a museum of culture. I want to function rather as a mystagogue, conducting you ever deeper into the mystery of the incarnation in the hopes that you might be transformed by its power.” —Fr. Robert Barron
What is Catholicism? A 2,000-year-old living tradition? A worldview? A way of life? A relationship? A mystery? In Catholicism Fr. Robert Barron examines all these questions and more, seeking to capture the body, heart, and mind of the Catholic faith.
Starting from the essential foundation of Jesus Christ’s incarnation, life, and teaching, Father Barron moves through the defining elements of Catholicism— from sacraments, worship, and prayer, to Mary, the apostles, and saints, to grace, salvation, heaven, and hell—using his distinct grasp of art, literature, architecture, personal stories, Scripture, theology, philosophy, and history to present the Church to the world.
Paired with his documentary film series of the same title, Catholicism is an intimate journey, capturing “The Catholic Thing” in all its depth and beauty. Eclectic and inspiring, Fr. Barron brings the faith to life for a new generation, in a style that is both faithful to timeless truths and simultaneously speaks in the language of contemporary life.
