What is Real + True? The Catechism is not a textbook, a collection of ideas, or a set of rules. It is the faithful echo of a God who wishes to reveal himself to us and desires us to respond.

Our mission is to pass down the gift of our faith by creating beautiful, captivating, and relevant content inspired by the Catechism of the Catholic Church. And we are making this content in multiple languages and accessible for free to people all over the world.

Our name is a reference to the real and true God. In Jesus, God is real. He is someone, not something. He’s a person who knows us and understands us. He walked this earth and showed us how to live and love. He is also the Truth, and his light guides our path and leads us to everlasting life. Real+True is a part of The Catechism Project, a global initiative sponsored by Our Sunday Visitor, under the patronage of the Holy See, and supported by people who join our mission.

    Breath in, breath out. You’ve been breathing, mostly unconsciously, since approximately 10 seconds after your birth.
