Encounter - Edward Kleinguetl - Bog

The objective of this catechetical framework is to help those who seek the truth to look at their faith in a new and refreshing way, to prove that faith has relevance in our daily lives and is not, as many in secular society would like us to think, merely an absurdity. God is ever present, not a mere spectator, and there is a specific purpose for human existence. Striving for greater purpose is natural, yet there is only one way to fill the longing that is at the depth of each human person. That way is to pursue our destiny, which is to live in union with God. The "way" to this destiny is through Jesus, the Incarnate Word of God (Logos), who represents God's personal invitation to each of us and is reflective of the depth of his love for his most prized creation. Humanity is the only part of creation made in the divine image and endowed with reason. We were created with these gifts for a purpose: to achieve our destiny. For those who are skeptical or would rather believe in the absurdity of life or a God who is distant and uncaring, we want to extend a simple invitation: "Come, and see." Take the journey of discovery and determine, once the truth is understood, if we can ever be the same.
