Why We're Catholic

Our Reasons for Faith, Hope, and Love

By: Trent Horn

Narrated by: Trent Horn

Length: 4 hrs and 54 mins

Publisher's Summary

How can you believe all this stuff? This is the number one question Catholics get asked - and, sometimes, we ask ourselves. Why do we believe that God exists, that he became a man and came to save us, that what looks like a wafer of bread is actually his body? Why do we believe that he inspired a holy book and founded an infallible Church to teach us the one true way to live? 

Ever since he became Catholic, Trent Horn has spent a lot of time answering these questions, trying to explain to friends, family, and total strangers the reasons for his faith. Some didn't believe in God or even in the existence of truth. Others said they were spiritual but didn't think you needed religion to be happy. Some were Christians who thought Catholic doctrines overcomplicated the pure gospel. And some were fellow Catholics who had a hard time understanding everything they professed to believe on Sunday. 

Why We're Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to all these people and more. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it's the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief - and brings us joy.

This is a great succinct expression of the reason for our hope in our Catholic faith through and with Christ Jesus.

Im a better catholic now

This book taught me more about Catholicism then being a cradle catholic for 33 years. Amazing job thank yiu

A good overview

Easy to listen to. Perhaps a bit basic for well-catechized Catholics, but ideal for those with poor catechisis, or just curious about the Catholic faith. I plan on having middle school/high school aged children listen.

Quick and easy!

This is a very quick read and summarises very well what the Catholic Church teaches, although I thought it'd enter into each topic a bit more deeply, it is a great read for non catholics. If you love Trent Horn and have watched to all his videos and podcasts, this may be a bit repetitive for you.
over all great summary

A must read!

I was really happy to hear Trent narrate his own book. That was a major plus.

I will read this again and again.

This is a great piece of armor for anyone who is passionate about Catholic Apologetics.

Great Guide to Catholicism

This book was easy to understand, informative, and useful. I had no idea that a book that covers so many topics could be so concise and still do a good job.

Loved it!

Great book! Highly recommend this book for Catholics and non Catholics. Trent makes it enjoyable to listen, and explains everything simply.

life changing

I use to think outsiders was my favorite book until now. I want to share this books with everyone questioning faith & their purpose.

Excellent and well done.

Completely easy to follow and many questions are thoroughly answered. The background music is a nice feature.

Concise but comprehensive

Probably the best introduction to the Catholic faith for anybody whether they be Christian, agnostic or atheist. Something for everybody.

Great introduction to Catholicism

I have began reading the bible and this served as a good companion to listen to, the author addresses many of the main arguments non religious people and Protestants make against Catholicism. Easy to understand (coming from a very lapsed Anglican!)

Great introduction to Christianity and Catholicsm

This book is a great introduction to both Christianity and Catholicism. While not a Catholic myself, I find Trent has put forward a great case without getting too in-depth and lengthy.

It leaves the listener with enough knowledge to start their journey and points them in the right direction, without trying to answer every objection that could be put forward and without overwhelming the listener with extremely lengthy arguments for each objection.

Overall a fantastic book and introductory to Christianity and Catholicism.

intense

all the apologetic reasons for "why I am a Catholic " were expertly examined and explained. it was surprising how weak my ability to defend My Faith was, but with Trent's explanation I realised I was more knowledgeable than I thought I was. gave me confidence to defend the Faith & The One True Church. thank you

Great book!

Trent brilliantly explains and helps understand the Catholic faith. It's a great listen and well worth the purchase for all people from atheist, to non catholics, and to catholics wanting to know more and deepen their faith. It helps us to understand what the Catholic faith actually is and not what we may think it is or have been told what it is by those who do not know the Catholic faith or are anti-Catholic. The Catholic faith is beautiful, as too this book. Thank you Trent!
