The Holy Bible
The Catechism of the Catholic Church

If you aren't understanding the philosophical terms or it isn't making sense, go back and read Aristotle's Organon and find out about Plato's form of the Good.

If you actually mean philosophy rather than doctrine, >>12399157 and >>12399172 are great starts, but a working knowledge of Christian doctrine is a necessity, and if you've never really *studied* Christianity, you do *not* understand the beginning of it. I would highly recommend Lewis' Mere Christianity for this, and of course a study of the gospels.
A broad overview might also be helpful, Craig's and Moreland's Pholosophical Foundations for a Christian Worldview looks excellent (I haven't yet read it but in my experience Craig is an excellent philosopher).

Jordan Peterson has a bunch of lectures about the bible. They are pretty nice.
