Leo Trese's The Faith Explained is a single volume meant to help readers understand, explain and defend the core truths of Catholicism. Its short, approachable chapters cover why humans exist, who God is and what His attributes mean, how creation and the Fall shaped humanity, and the meaning of the Incarnation and Redemption. Other chapters take up the sacraments, sacramentals, prayer and the place of Scripture in the believer's life.

Trese wrote the book for people preparing to enter the Church, and it works equally well as a refresher for lifelong Catholics. Non-Catholics with questions about the Church will also find it clear and illuminating.
