The Emmaus series has sold over 50,000 books since its launch in Autumn 1996 and continues to grow rapidly, both here and abroad. A sustained interest in Emmaus has meant a sustained demand for the Emmaus resources, especially the Introduction booklet and the Nurture course. This resources is designed to welcome people into the Christian faith and the life of the Church. The introductory book gives essential background to both the theology and practice of the Emmaus course, including: how to use the catechumenate approach as an accompanied journey into faith; how to use the biblical model of the road to Emmaus; how to run the Emmaus course in your own church.
