What is Holy teaching : introducing the Summa theologiae of St. Thomas Aquinas about?

<p>There comes a time in the life of every Christian when he or she desires to go deeper in his or her walk with God. For many, this task can seem daunting.<p>Enter St. Thomas Aquinas. He wrote his great Summa theologiae, or summary of theology, to fill the need for a thorough survey of Christian teaching. Unfortunately, the Summa theologiae is thousands of pages and can be intimidating to the beginner.<p>Now Frederick Bauerschmidt has come to the rescue. Holy Teaching presents key parts of the Summa theologiae, which are explained by Bauerschmidt. These selections will encourage students, pastors, and interested laypeople to spend quality time in the company of a great Christian teacher. <p></p> <h3>Library Journal</h3> <p>Perhaps only St. Paul and St. Augustine have had a greater shaping influence on Christianity than St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-74), yet, of these, Aquinas is least known to the broader reading public. Bauerschmidt (theology, Loyola Coll., MD) here attempts to shape and present the essentials of Aquinas's greatest work, the Summa Theologiae. He does not so much paraphrase Aquinas's carefully logical statements about the Christian faith as to annotate them extensively
