Why We Believe: Answering Common Questions about the Catholic Faith
Is Catholicism true? Or is it just made up? How can I explain the faith to my family or friends who no longer believe? In this mind-blowing series, Dr. Brant Pitre takes up the most commonly asked questions about the Catholic faith and provides clear and compelling biblical answers. He begins at the beginning--with the existence of God--and walks you step-by-step through the foundations of the faith. Along the way, Dr. Pitre explains: Does God Exist? How can we know it? Is Jesus God? Did Jesus claim to be God? And why should we believe him? Peter and the Papacy? Did Jesus establish the Catholic Church? What is the historical evidence? How Did We Get the Bible? From where did the Bible come? Who decided which books got in and which didn't? Is the Eucharist Jesus’ Real Presence? What does the Bible teach about Jesus' Real Presence in the Eucharist? Why Confess to a Priest? Did Jesus arrange for us to confess our sins to a priest of the new covenant? Do Catholics Worship Mary? What does the Bible teach about her? Purgatory and Prayers for the Dead? Where is Purgatory in the Bible? Why do Catholics pray for the dead? |
