The Catechist's Guide to Reading Your Bible: A Catholic View

Mueller, Steve

The aim of this book is to help you read more competently and so experience more richly the four New Testament Gospels as the original and still most helpful catechetical resources we have for deepening our relationship with Jesus and growing in our understanding of our Christian beliefs and practice. Part 1, God's Good News, provides some necessary background material about the New Testament social world that will allow you to understand better the historical situation in which the Gospels were composed and what the authors were trying to accomplish through their different versions of God's Good News. Part 2, The Good News in Four Versions, offers a brief reading guide to each of the Gospels that will help you to become familiar with each author's story of Jesus and his Good News of our salvation. Part 3, The Good News that Stays News, suggests several helpful resources that will help you use the Gospels for - shaping your own Gospel spirituality - further reading and study (including a handy glossary of terms) - personal reflection and small-group sharing

So What's the Good News?: The Catechist's Guide to Reading the Gospels

Mueller, PhD Steve

The unexpected can be a gift that teaches us who we are and what we can be. On Sunday, April 13, 1997 Jocelyn’s life abruptly changed within a matter of seconds. As a free-spirited, unsettled woman, she travelled across the globe seeking adventure and purpose, returning home just long enough to earn enough money for the next trek. While in Namibia, Africa as part of a three month, sub-Saharan camping trip, Jocelyn broke her back in a sledding accident and was instantly paralyzed—permanently. While unsought and unwanted, it was an adventure, and one of high stakes. Jocelyn had a choice—would she embrace this full on as she did other challenges or withdraw and let life pass her by? While surviving an accident thousands of miles from home has its own merit, the real grit and depth of her story comes from how she created a new way of truly living. Moving on and not dwelling on the ‘why,’ while by no means easy, is a powerful decision anyone experiencing a life-altering event can make. Though struggle, grief, and anger were all part of the journey, her family, friends and faith helped Jocelyn create a new life. Read her gripping story filled with tragedy, humor, joy and adventure.

Growing as a Catechist: A Practical Guide

Shaping a Gospel Spirituality: A Practical Guide offers thoughts, inspiration, reflection and practical ideas you can use today in your catechetical ministry. The goal of this booklet is to encourage you to use the Gospels as the primary source for shaping your own discipleship spirituality, that is, your response to God’s presence in you and your life that is the foundation for your vision and vocation as a Christian. A discipleship spirituality demands adopting Jesus’ worldview as our own (the challenge of conversion) and then sharing that worldview with others (the challenge of evangelization).
Thus we focus on how each Gospel writer:
• portrayed Jesus so that his words and deeds became the primary example of Christian living
• portrayed the disciples as positive and negative examples of the many possible ways of responding and following Jesus
• and so indicated ways for their communities to faithfully follow Jesus in the daily situations in which they found themselves.
