About this title

Synopsis

"Growing in Christian Morality" is a course for high school/secondary school pupils that focuses on the development of virtue and character. It considers the important question "what kind of person am I becoming and what kind of person do I want to become?". It then responds by offering a Christian vision for answering this, centring on Jesus as the model for full humanness and offering the tradition of the Catholic Church teaching on contemporary moral issues. The text contains extensive narrative material - stories, cases and quotes from young people - and many reflection activities to help students relate the concepts to their own experience. This revision of the earlier edition gives updated information and examples.
