In a series of 41 meditations based on the four parts of the Catechism -- the Creed, Sacraments, Commandments and Prayer - The Cardinal connects the teachings of the Catechism with the themes and biblical readings from the Churchs liturgical year to inspire the reader to put into practice in his daily life the Catholic faith taught in the Catechism. His medications include such topics as "The Truth about Creation," "Virtue and the Art of Living," "The Last Thing," "The Great Sacraments of Healing," "The Key to the Universe," and "At the Heart of All Prayer."
