As Pope St. John Paul II made clear in his apostolic exhortation Catechesi Tradendae, “The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in communion, in intimacy, with Jesus Christ.”  
 
The Formed in Christ series seeks to fulfill this call, fostering intimacy with Christ through its dynamic content. Each of the texts is complimented by a comprehensive workbook designed to provide instructors with test material and direction for enhancing students’ grasp of the material.
 
In The Word Became Flesh, the course of study looks at the life and teaching of Jesus in history, examining who Jesus revealed himself to be, what he revealed about the Holy Trinity, and how that revelation touches our own lives today as we strive to answer Jesus’s call to discipleship in the world.
