Whether you are a Catholic university professor, a Catholic high school teacher, a Catholic grade school instructor, or even just a volunteer CCD teacher, you have a difficult job.
How do you explain the Faith to today’s young Catholics? There are plenty of online resources for Catholic educators but most consist of printable lesson plans that need adapting or superficial activities for children to do as busywork.
What Catholic educators most need are the resources and tools to fully understand the Catholic Faith and texts and guides to help transmit that to children. Why does God allow evil? Why does God send people to Hell? Why does everyone have to die? How does God exist along with evolution? Is Hell Real? Did God create dinosaurs? Did the Catholic Church murder people in the Crusades? Et cetera. The list goes on.
Catholic educators need concrete explanations to these and hundreds other questions. You need to understand both what the Church teaches and why She teaches it. Children are not looking for guesses or for superficial answers. Teaching religion is a spiritual work of mercy that the Church blesses with indulgences but teaching error to children – even unintentionally – can lead to the direct loss of souls. How many children have been led astray by teachers giving false answers or saying that they don’t know? How many of their children will grow up in a non-religious household as a result?

Our Lord taught that we must first remove the plank in our own eyes before we can help others (cf. Matthew 7:5). And in the same vein, St. Paul wrote to the Romans: “For, everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. But how are men to call upon Him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?” (Romans 10:13-14)
