Book excerpt: "The Ad Hoc Committee to Oversee the Use of the Catechism, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, has found this catechetical text, copyright 2008, to be in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church." Take a look at the second edition of this text and find the same clear theology with updated data and stories! The Living Justice and Peace course empowers students to examine society critically based on values from the Scriptures and on the seven themes of Catholic Social Teaching. The text addresses specific topics such as abortion, capital punishment, racism, poverty, the environment, and peace. After providing students with three foundational chapters on justice and Scripture, Catholic social teaching, and a praxis model, the remaining seven chapters each take one of the themes. True stories of adults and teens who have experienced injustice or have transformed the world through acts of justice inspire students to reflect on their own ability to make a difference. The teaching manual fully supports the student text and includes prayers, prayer services, review questions and answers, student activities, discussion questions, role-play situations, suggestions for interviews and guest speakers, student handouts, and much more.
