The Confident Catechist is a collection of ten independently written articles geared toward improving the faith-sharing skills of religious education and youth ministry volunteers. Each article explores a specific teaching tool, technique, or outlook. Reflective questions follow each offering, helping catechists apply its message to their own ministry and teaching experience. Like an experienced mentor, The Confident Catechist provides an easily accessible collection of teaching tools that can help volunteers move confidently through a session and comfortably through faith formation, youth ministry, and religious education lessons.
