Correct, as far as I am concerned the best and worst thing the Church ever did was the CCC. Best because it's cheaply priced for the size, it's available it's clearly written.
Worst thing if you are one of those gray fuzzy people who like to pretend there are gray areas. Because if you read the thing, there is no gray! I love the CCC. When I get static from a certain sector I say have you read the CCC, no?. You should is what I say. No excuses! No more hiding behind the I didn't understand the Encyclical etc.
Being Catholic is great! It's also a contact sport and it sure ain't easy a lot of times!

I love the Catechism. We read from it every morning; today we got to Paragraph 1,121.
If my family members don’t know their Faith, it won’t be through a lack of effort on my part!
