Catholic Courses Online

Check this out:

Dear Friends,

It is my pleasure to announce our latest initiative, Catholic Courses!

My passion for this project is rooted in experience. At a point of crisis in my life, I began reading the spiritual classics and great saints. I also discovered more recent Christian writers such as Chesterton, Belloc, Lewis and Tolkien.

Although I never had a college education, these great saints, scholars and artists brought me to understand the Truth. Through them I discovered the Church's timeless wisdom...our greatest inheritance. Now that priceless legacy is available to you.

Catholic Courses presents the heritage of Christendom, explained and illustrated in fascinating lectures by some of the greatest minds in the Church. Each 30 minute lecture is a private tutorial by a faithful professor...enjoyed from the comfort of home, on the go in your car, on a jog or at the gym.

With Catholic Courses, you'll learn the Tradition and live the Truth on a whole new level. I am honored to be involved as Executive Director-and I invite you to join me in this exciting new adventure.

Yours in the fullness of the Faith,

Joseph Pearce
