Hello all!
I am in a small group with several other couples from my parish, and we are beginning to look into what our next topic/resource is going to be. I would like to know if anyone has anything they would recommend.
Things you might like to know:
Of the seven couples in the group, four are mixed-faith marriages. The couples are all generally in their 30s and all the cradle-catholics suffer from a general lack of good (if any) catechesis. Our previous two studies spurred mostly superficial discussion, but there was a distinct lack of understanding of what the Church really taught. I found myself on more than one occasion trying to explain to the cradle catholics what the Catholic Church taught about some major doctrinal issues. At our last meeting I proposed doing something like an RCIA-type study of the Catholic faith, which didn’t cause any resistance or excitement.
I came to a greater understanding of the faith through some of Scott Hahn’s work, so I thought something like “The Lamb’s Supper” or “Swear to God” might be good.
Anyhow, I would appreciate your recommendations.
Peace,
javelin
