The Fourteen Hour Basic
"Know Your Faith" Course...


This is a starter course for people who are hungry to learn basic theology and to learn about the Catholic Church. Everyone who has taken it has been given a tremendous boost in their knowledge of GOD and of His Church. It is the course which gave me my start, and built a fire within me to continue a learning curve which has risen greatly and I know will never taper off. Many of us in my parish, as a result of taking this course have taught it to others. Some of our students are now teachers themselves. In my parish, many of us have been evangelizing for years. All of the files on this website are a direct result of having taken this class and in turn teaching it to others.

"Since, like all the faithful, lay Christians are entrusted by GOD with the apostolate by virtue of their Baptism and Confirmation, they HAVE THE RIGHT AND DUTY, INDIVIDUALLY OR GROUPED IN ASSOCIATIONS, TO WORK SO THAT THE DIVINE MESSAGE OF SALVATION MAY BE KNOWN AND ACCEPTED BY ALL MEN THROUGHOUT THE EARTH. THIS DUTY IS THE MORE PRESSING WHEN IT IS ONLY THROUGH THEM THAT MEN CAN HEAR THE GOSPEL AND KNOW CHRIST."
Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) 900. Please read CCC 897-913.

We Learn:
10% of what we read.
20% of what we hear.
30% of what we see.
50% of what we both see and hear.
70% of what is discussed with others.
80% of what we experience personally.
95% of what we TEACH to someone else.

Clearly, TEACHING is by far the best way to learn...
