Every Catholic should be taught the Faith by the best books.
Every Catholic should have a copy of the Catechism that will last them a lifetime.
Every Catholic should have a copy of the Catechism of the Council of Trent.
For, as Pope Leo XIII once said on this very book,
“This work is remarkable at once for the richness and exactness of its doctrine, and for the elegance of its style; it is a precious summary of all theology, both dogmatic and moral. He who understands it well will have always at his service those aids by which a priest is enabled to preach with fruit, to acquit himself worthily of the important ministry…of the direction of souls, and will be in a position to refute the objections of unbelievers.”
This beautiful, embossed hardcover Catechism will last decades and become one of the most essential books on your shelf. The sturdy binding and attractive typesetting will help you to navigate and understand the most important truths of the Catholic Faith throughout your life.
The Catechism of the Council of Trent, compiled under the supervision of St. Charles Borromeo and approved by Pope St. Pius V, has been recognized as the most authoritative catechism by many of the greatest popes, such as St. Pius X, Clement XIII, Benedict XV, Leo XIII, and many others. It has been used by clergy and laymen for over 400 years as a source of the clear and simple truths of the Faith.
To ordinary people, to great theologians, to popes, and even to saints, this catechism has been a guide and companion—the Catechism of the Council of Trent will become your steady guide in the confusion of the modern age.

The Catechism is a wonderful book. I showed it to my adult religious education class, and they liked it a lot also. This is another wonderful book from TAN!n
I am looking forward to reading this book very soon.

The best! Every Catholic should have one copy and read it constantly.

Beautiful book!
This book is very beautifully made, and the content is of course great! I really appreciate having a copy of the Catechism of the Council of Trent in our home, especially such a nice one. As a bonus, the ribbon which is included appears to be finished at the end to prevent fraying!

It outlines and confirms original sources of Apostolic traditions
Catholics who wish to take a deep dive into the preeminence of the Catholic Church in theological development will find it invaluable!

Catechism of Council of Trent
Gave as a gift; recipient was very pleased!

The Teaching of the Roman Catholic Church
The infallible teaching of the Catholic Church, as handed down by Christ and the Apostles! Arrived on time, decent condition (although the bottom right corner on the front was slightly damaged, but nothing too bad). The only little disappointment was that it did not come with a ribbon! They should not post the images with a ribbon, as it is misleading. But it is not a big deal, as I can just use a holy card.

Catechism
The catechism of the council of Trent is the most complete version of any catechism on how to defend your faith and educate people to the true faith, it also educates us about the sacraments deeply. I recommend it to everyone
