The Catechism:
Read it! Live it! Share it! Pray it!
The Catechism is an extraordinarily rich and vibrant tapestry of the truths needed to faithfully live a Catholic life. At almost one thousand pages, it can feel a bit daunting to break open the text, based on Sacred Scripture and Tradition. This site is organized to help you easily pull some of its most important threads into clear view.
Start exploring here:
🔎 Lookup a paragraph someone just quoted
📚 Explore Topics and Most Quoted Paragraphs
🙏 Use Adoration paragraph sets for prayer
🔥 Discover powerful Stories told through Catechism paragraphs
🗒️ Dynamically Filter and Expand/Contract the Table of Contents
The Catechism is generally available online, but it is rarely easy to explore, retrieve, and learn from, since traditional sites are mostly built only as reference materials or consist of PDF documents.
Here that is turned into interactive exploration by using the authorized reference text while adding ease of use and allowing the user to determine the sequence of paragraphs as needed.
There is no sifting through PDF output or sequentially walking a large volume. We give you exactly what you request. And if you do not know what to request, we have pre-built topics, most quoted paragraphs, and stories to assist.
The single most frequent Catechism action people want is:
- look up and display a paragraph someone just quoted
- the lookup tool solves that primary real-world use case
With powerful inline cross references, you can easily and automatically get the fuller thematic value that the original writers intended. It's built right into the paragraph display.
Menu navigation across the top is easy, swipe or scroll. There are ten different tabs in all.
Three tabs contain suggested sets of paragraphs for a specific subject, enabling novice users to get a running start and easily/quickly dive right into the text:
- the default tab with multiple sets of suggested paragraphs, including Most Quoted Paragraphs
- more sets of suggested paragraphs suitable for prayer in Eucharistic Adoration
- personal impact stories told through specific paragraphs
Each of the above tabs will switch to the tab to display the specific paragraphs requested. Alternatively, you can easily enter your own requested paragraph number(s),ranges or flexible combinations.
Ignorance of the Catechism is ignorance of His Body, The Church
