I can’t wait for…

… this new series to come out in the Autumn! It looks like it’s going to be a tremendous series of films designed to let Catholicism “speak for itself”. What I love about it is that it’s being shot from all across the globe, showing the variety, richness and catholicity of our Faith. What’s more, it presents our Faith as something beautiful. Today, our culture is in love with what is beautiful, even if only with that which is seemingly beautiful. Our Faith is truly beautiful, because “Truth is beautiful in itself” CCC 2500 and Christ embodies the fullness of Truth, and therefore is supreme Beauty! I think this is something key in the New Evangelisation – that we present Christ and the Church as they are – beautiful! Our Faith is not a series of dry formulas, it is beautiful and alive! From the trailer to this series of films, it seems Fr. Robert Barron has succeeded in presenting our Faith as beautiful, joyful and alive. I think The Catholicism Project will be a real gift to adult catechesis and formation.

    Wonderful blog and wonderful video! The only thing I question in the video is the bit at 1min 22sec: what on earth is that?!

    Many prayers and blessings.

    Hmm… Doesn’t every parish have processions like that?! To tell the truth, I’m not really sure. Glad you like the blog!
