I just discovered Catholic Courses before Christmas. I took them up on their special offer for the first course free, I got Shakespeares Catholicism.
It is AWESOME!!!!!! I have had the book Shadowplay by Clare Asquith for over a year and I have never read it. I am definitly reading it now, and will probably get a the book The Quest For Shakespeare by the author of the course.
This would be a great study for any high school students. Very interesting and inspiring.
Has anyone used any of the other courses? I would love to get them all!

That looks so promising  Thinking my ds would love the Hidden Meaning of LOTR for a starter, excited about a freebie too.

These look absolutely awesome...
So many things to consider.
I quite liked the look at the Saints from the Past..
And the History myths dispelled..
Thank you for sharing

I *love* the one on Lord of the Rings - I've only just started it, but I love it thus far! I just did the free audio download to try it out, but I wonder how much nicer the DVD would be... what visuals would be used...
Definitely a program worth keeping an eye on - see what else they roll out as time goes on.

Any more thoughts on these? We got a demo DVD in the mail today. It has samples of several lectures.

I got the one on Friendship, as well, and it was fantastic! This one was a bit more heady and I needed to listen more closely but I love it.

My husband's intro to theology course should be out . . . sometime. He spent all last summer writing the lectures and then filming. Not as glam as Shakespeare and LOTR, but knowing the source rather well, I can recommend it as a good basic course!

But it's not out yet, as I see by visiting the site. Oh well. Someday.

Cyber Week Sale!
I wanted to bump this thread again because of the wonderful Cyber Week Sale. The audio downloads are only $9.99! Such a great deal. I have purchase three of these courses and really loved each of them. I am tempted with a few more that I need to think about before the week is over.
Just wanted to share!
P.S. Sally, is this your Husband's course? It's only one on the list to get! Looks great!

Betsy, I'm getting a "not a valid product" page when I click your link. But his Intro to Theology is supposed to be out before Christmas -- at last! It was two summers ago that this project took over his life, so it's gratifying to know that finally other people will see it.
Thanks so much for bumping this thread.
Sally

Yup, it works! Over the weekend they were having a 75% off sale, but alas yesterday was the last day, and I couldn't come post about it here. Still, the price is not bad for a DVD lecture series.
Much goodness at Catholic Courses overall, but having watched the sample from Lecture 1 of Intro to Theology, I have to say that I'm really proud of my husband and excited about a course that could potentially be a great addition to any family's theological study. A terrific course for high-school religion, fleshed out with readings!
Thanks again, Betsy, for bumping this thread.
Sally

This sale has been extended until Friday! These are really great courses. I have purchased 6 of the audio downloads and enjoyed and learned quite a bit.
I am excited to listend to the new courses that I just got from this sale. I have never taken any theology classes but I have always wanted to.
