But what do the one billion Catholics worldwide really believe, and how do they put their beliefs into practice in worship or within family and society? This engaging and informative introduction to Catholicism aims to provide a realistic portrait, starting from the early Christian creed and reaching the roots of modern Catholic thought. This work does not present theological technicalities but seeks to clearly and concisely explain both the institutional structure of the Church and its liturgical practices—practices that even Catholics sometimes find puzzling—and Catholic religiosity. What role do the scriptures play in Catholicism? What are the sacraments and prayer for? What is the mission of the Church? What does social and personal morality dictate in Catholicism? Why must a Catholic confess? What makes a person a saint? Is the Pope \"infallible\"? All these questions, and many more, find their answers in this introductory guide, free from any doctrinal bias.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ediciones Akal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57584353870168,"sku":"AMZ9788446031536","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/5436313485195.jpg?v=1782689734","url":"https:\/\/www.plasticbooks.uk\/en\/products\/introduccion-al-catolicismo-9788446031536","provider":"Plastic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
