Life in Christ Jesus
So they set out at once and returned to Jerusalem... Luke 24.27
The disciples leave their encounter with the Risen Christ, just as we do, empowered to announce the Good News to the other disciples and to all who seek the Kingdom of God—the love, peace, and justice brought about by the faithfulness to Jesus’ message.

Be My Disciples, Second Edition invites Catholic young people to grow in their conversion to Jesus Christ and in their understanding of Catholic teaching; develop the habits of discipleship; decide each day to choose life in Christ; and live as active, committed members of the Catholic Church.
The program offers an exciting exploration of our Catholic faith using a holistic scope and sequence to help students see ALL of life through the eyes of faith. It incorporates the latest research in the way children learn and applies it to faith formation.
In Grades 7 and 8, the students enrich and expand their knowledge of core concepts through five semester texts, each of which focuses on a particular area of Catholic teaching.
This new edition now includes the Family Life Connection, an amazing family resource built right into the Student Edition textbook! Students will take home this two-page insert to help them build the skills they need to live healthy, holy lives.
