Very informative ...
I'm not Catholic and am not likely to become Catholic. However, that doesn't take anything away from this series. I have only watched the first hour so far, but that segment shows how close Christianity is in its many flavors. The central theme of Christianity is Jesus! That applies whether your faith is Catholic or Protestant. Either Jesus is who He said He is or else he is a liar or deluded. There is no middle ground here, no way to call him a good man if he isn't God. Jesus said "I and the Father are one". No 'good' man would ever make that claim. The first segment centers on the Catholic beliefs concerning Jesus and even if you are a Baptist you will find yourself saying "Amen!" all the way through. I know that as the episodes progress I will find areas of difference, but if believing in Jesus is the key to eternal life then Protestant and Catholic alike will be in good shape.
Now with respect to the blu-ray presentation, the picture clarity is wonderful! I haven't seen...
Understanding Catholicism
This is an excellent visual presentation underscored by intelligent commentary on the true meaning and practice of the Catholic Church. Highly recommended for those interested in learning about the faith, whether of a different faith or practice. Equally important for those who have fallen away, often because of exposure to previous poor teaching or misinterpretation of the basics.
Outstanding Series
My family has enjoyed watching this series tremendously! There is so much wisdom packed into each and every episode that one can learn something new every time the series are viewed. Fr Barron is an amazing priest!
