Read what everyone is saying about The Sower

 

“I see in The Sower a wonderful instrument to assist in the renewal of catechetics today. The Sower will assist greatly in forming catechetical leaders who have confidence and creativity, inspired by the vision for catechesis enshrined in the writings of the universal magisterium.”
Cardinal Schönborn, Editor of the Catechism of the Catholic Church

The Sower combines the orthodox teaching of the Catholic Church with the consideration of methods adapted to the people of today.”
Most Rev. Maurice Couve de Murville, Archbishop Emeritus of Birmingham, England

“I have very much appreciated the series entitled Learning Through Art and am convinced that the use of sacred art in catechetical texts can be a very constructive way of spreading the Gospel.”
Most Rev. Angelo Amato, S.D.B., Titular Archbishop of Sila, Secretary, Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith

“The articles are pertinent, practical and faith-filled.”
Rev. Alfred McBride, O.Praem., Author: Father McBride's Teen Catechism and Teen Guide to the Bible

The Sower gives catechists resources that they might not have thought to utilize. No matter what the area of catechesis – RCIA, teen programs, children’s programs or adult formation –The Sower provides insights, information and a real connection to the mind and heart of the Church.”
Mary Jo Smith, Author and TV Host for “God’s Image Faith Factory” (EWTN)

The Sower is beautiful and full of wisdom - just what our catechists and Catholic families need today.”
Michael O’Brien, Artist and Author: Father Elijah and Sophia House, Ontario, Canada

The Sower is a publication that reaffirms the importance of authentic catechesis in our age. The regular contributors include a long list of faith-filled Bishops, priests, religious and laity that understand the deep importance of catechesis and the need for catechists to be formed in theology, methodology and to inculturate a deep love for Christ and His Church.”
Ryan Hanning, Coordinator of Adult Evangelization, Diocese of Phoenix, USA
