Friends, I have long been interested in exploring The Catechism of The Council of Trent on lionandox. Inspired by the popular Fr. Mike Schmitz and his podcasts The Bible in a Year, and now The Catechism in a Year, it seemed to me (as imitation is the highest form of flattery), that we could do no better than Exploring The Catechism of the Council of Trent, intending that we also would complete the project in a year!

Written in the second half of the 16th century (under the direction of two saints!), The Catechism of The Council of Trent is arguably the clearest and most succinct presentation of the Catholic Faith available.

The newer Catechism of the Catholic Church, was not intended to replace the Catechism of Trent (aka “The Roman Catechism”) but was intended as a supplement. A great idea for Catholics to have both!

Given that the year appears to have already commenced, our new podcast will therefore have to accomplish the entire task in less than a year.

Therefore, beginning this Wednesday – January 11, 2023 – watch for the beginning of this exciting new series!

Given the nature of things, we do not anticipate necessarily posting a new installment of this series on a daily basis, but then again we just might.

Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a way to disable email notifications. Consequently, with our apologies, some subscribers may find it necessary to unsubscribe from the blog (sadly) in order to eliminate crowded inboxes.

I hope you will enjoy this new feature hosted on lionandox.com.
