Bishop Christoph Schonborn, the editor of the monumental Catechism of the Church, a world-wide best seller, provides a brief commentary on the first part of the Catechism, the creed. Schonborn gives an incisive, detailed analysis of the Creed, providing a specific meditation for each week of the year on how better to live the Catholic faith as expressed in the Creed and explained in the Catechism. Through these 52 meditations, Schonborn's goal is that the reader not only have a better grasp of Catholic doctrine and belief but also grow in a greater love of and devotion to the person of Jesus Christ. 'Faith is whole. It has only one heart, one center: Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. Christ must therefore also be the center of catechesis whose object is 'putting people...in communion ...with Jesus Christ: only he can lead us to the love of the Father in the Spirit and make us share in the life of the Holy Trinity' (CCC 426), for 'in him are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge' (Col 2:3). In a certian sense, the 'essential elements of the faith' have their origin in the heart of Jesus. This heart is a symbol of 'that love with which the divine Redeemer continually loves the eternal Father and all men' without exception (CCC 478)."     -Bishop Christoph Schonborn
