The reality of our lives is this: we are born in mystery, live in mystery, and die in mystery. Theology is the quest to understand and articulate our relationship with this mystery “in whom we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28).
Catholic Theology Basics offers a basic explanation of seven major topics of theology: Scripture, God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, Salvation History, the Church and the Sacraments, with suggested references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
