Excellent

If you could sum up Catholicism for Dummies in three words, what would they be?

As a returning Catholic I found this book very good, it refreshed my memory on all topics.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Catholicism for Dummies?

The description of the Catholic priest scandals as a bad marriage. The concept of marriage is still sound and not to be blamed. In the Catholic priest scandal the religion is not to be blamed it was just a couple of bad apples.

Glad I experienced it.

No review

I simply like to hear my Faith explained in new ways. Pretty good job, fellas.

Excellent !!!!

This audio book is excellent for people who have limited knowledge about our Precious Catholic Faith. Also, this book provides excellent basic knowledge about our Catholic Faith to our protestant brothers and sisters who love Christ Jesus and live without the benefit of living their faith to the fullness Christ Jesus intended. It clarifies so many lies and misconceptions about our True Faith and how our faith began with Jesus Christ Himself, and how through tradition and The Holy Scriptures our Holy Catholic Church has continued and will never be put asunder.

Informative and easy to digest!

I’m a convert to the Catholic faith, and bought a physical copy of this book almost a decade ago, but never got around to finishing it. I have family members that are interested in the Catholic faith and I decided to listen to this audiobook to ensure that it was accurate and not too detailed for them to digest. It’s very informative and I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning a bit about the structure and history of the Church simply for the sake of knowledge. It can easily be listened to at 1.25x or even 1.50x speed as well.

incredibly informative.

I'm not a catholic, yet intrigued. this book was teeming with knowledge and insight. Catholicism is such a complex belief system to me but this helped shine some light. It didn't really cover their ideas and thoughts as far as angels and demons per se, however the everyday catholic and his/her life is greatly displayed. Thank you.

Good introduction

Narration was good and the explanations for why Catholics believe as they do was thorough

Great book for someone who wants to learn

I knew a couple of things about the Catholic Church, but not much. My husband is catholic so I wanted to learn more. This was a great introduction and gave me a good foundation of understanding.

God Jesus

Good information and stories on the Catholic Church and its beginnings . This is a reminder of my upbringing.

Excellent insight into the Catholic faith

The step by step presentation of the topic was well done and the narrator was excellent in his presentation as well. As a person interested in joining the Catholic faith this audio book helped me with the historical background to understand the faith.
