Introduction to Catholicism

Explore the Ave Maria Press Introduction to Catholicism collection, with textbooks and resources that equip theology educators and parish leaders to provide students with a solid foundation in Catholic doctrine, worship, and Christian living. Fully aligned with the USCCB Curriculum Framework and rooted in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, our introductory theology books and materials guide learners through the core truths of the Catholic faith—including the Blessed Trinity, Sacred Scripture and Tradition, the Sacraments, moral theology, and prayer.

Ave Maria Press provides a trustworthy starting point for freshman high school theology courses, introductory faith formation sessions, and OCIA and youth ministry programs with titles that combine doctrinally-sound content with engaging, age-appropriate lessons. Available in affordable print and digital formats with free teacher support materials, Ave Maria Press empowers teachers and catechists to minister with a spirit of evangelizing catechesis that leads students to a personal encounter with Jesus Christ.
