Catholic and Christian

An Explanation of Commonly Misunderstood Catholic Beliefs

De: Alan Schreck

Narrado por: Casey Bassett

You're on the spot. Someone wants you to explain some aspect of Catholic belief. Do you really think the pope is infallible? Why do Catholics pray to Mary? Where do sacraments come from? What do you think of the Bible? Are you saved?

You wish some well-informed Catholic friend were around to help with the answer. Or perhaps you are asking the questions yourself. Where do Catholic beliefs come from? Why do we pray for the dead? How does the rosary fit into a biblical faith?

The best-selling Catholic and Christian provides the answers you need. It is a concise summary of commonly misunderstood Catholic beliefs, teachings, and practices that don't get much attention in Sunday homilies and in religious education, puzzling Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

This is a book for all Catholics who want to know more about their faith.

Great book for protestants converting to Catholicism

this is a very good comprehensive explanation of the differences in "regular Christianity" and Catholicism. the author also draws on scripture to help in the explanation and I enjoyed that

One of the Best Catholic Apologetics Book

Dr. Alan Schreck, a convert to Roman Catholicism and a Theologian at the Franciscan University at Steubenville, OH, writes very compelling arguments for Roman Catholic beliefs. His first chapter on Salvation is outstanding, and he uses mostly biblical references. This book was instrumental in bringing me into communion with the Roman Catholic Church in 2000, and I've personally given away more than two dozen copies of the book to those interested in the Roman Catholic faith tradition. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested or searching their faith.
