Rejoice! The Compendium of the CCC is now online!

Via Ignatius Insight:

The Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church is now online on the Vatican website (hat tip: Pontifications). It is an excellent resource.

...

The Compendium is far less intimidating for many readers because, of course, it is much shorter than the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The question and answer format is perfect for teaching and leading groups. And it is a very attractive volume, with reproductions of sacred art, commentary on the theological meaning of those pieces of art, and reproductions of numerous prayers (in both English and Latin).

In addition to the Compendium, there are a number of helpful works for those wishing to study the Catechism and appreciate its contents more deeply:

• Introduction to the Catechism of the Catholic Church (Cardinals Ratzinger And Schonborn)
• Companion to the Catechism of the Catholic Church
• Living the Catechism of the Catholic Church (The Creed), vol 1 (Cardinal Schonborn)
• Living the Catechism of the Catholic Church (The Sacraments), vol 2
• Living the Catechism of the Catholic Church, (Life in Christ), vol 3
• Living the Catechism of the Catholic Church (Prayer), vol 4
• Catholic Christianity (Peter Kreeft)
