In this ten lecture series Andrew Wood takes you through the third part of the Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: our Life in Christ and Christian Morality. Like the first and second parts of this threefold series, this part was given as a live introductory course on the Catholic faith to beginners and those preparing for Baptism. In this short and concise introduction Andrew takes you through the fundamentals of what the Catholic Church teaches concerning the dignity of the human person, man’s universal vocation to holiness, his freedom, the nature of morality and the influences on the moral act such as the passions, virtues, conscience and sin. You will also see how law and grace are synthesised, and see the Church’s vital role in assisting us choose the good in our moral decisions. Andrew will conclude this series by looking at the Decalogue, showing you how the Ten Commandments are natural to man and hierarchically structured.

This series is essential for anyone wanting to understand the fundamentals of the Christian moral life.
