We use Following Christ in the World by Anne Carroll. This is an excellent text, and contains great topics for discussion. It examines the role of philosophy in theology, considers the immortality of the soul, the divinity of Christ, social justice, abortion, contraception, euthanasia, grace, sin, suffering, and many other important topics. In addition we use Surprised by Truth which provides some additional guidance in apologetics. We also include essay and paper topics to give the student practice with writing in variety of styles. The Catholic Doctrine Syllabus has a day-by-day breakdown of this course along with paper topics, questions for discussion, tests, answer keys to the tests, and a variety of teaching resources including Twelfth Grade Subject Rubrics, Learning Objectives, and grading charts. This is a 1 year, 1 credit course.
