How to explain the faith to non-believers

When author F.X. Cronin returned
to the Catholic Church, many of his
friends reacted with disbelief.


Even his Catholic friends denied
the truth of the Faith — and the
existence of truth itself!


In response to these objections,
Cronin has composed a lucid, incisive
book that takes skeptics and believers
alike on a delightful tour of reality.





Beginning with proofs for
the existence of truth itself, Cronin
considers — and refutes — step by step
most of our culture’s common relativistic
beliefs, demonstrating not only the existence
of God but also the truth of Christianity, and
in particular of the Catholic Faith.


Doubters will be won over by
Cronin’s gracious exhortations to set
aside their often reflexive assumptions
in order to ponder with him the evidence
he brings forth.


Believers will be surprised by his
piercing insights into realities that, if
truth be told, most of us have insufficiently
contemplated ourselves.


All will be delighted by his lyrical
appeals to mind and heart, both of which
must be engaged by anyone who seeks to
understand our remarkable world and its
abundant evidence for the reality
and glory of God.


Among the dozens of topics Cronin explores here are:

 
  • Science: How, in too many ways, modern science has actually become anti-scientific
     
  • Materialism: Why faith isn’t blind — but materialism and moral relativism are
     
  • Knowledge: How we can know for certain the right answers about life and living
     
  • Miracles: Why God’s nature requires that He answer prayers — and even perform miracles!
     
  • Morality: Why it’s not just a list of prohibitions, but the very gateway to love and peace
     
  • And much more, to immerse you in the whole world according to God and guide you through its wonders!

What Readers Are Saying: 

"A detailed and comprehensive philosophical series of arguments for the existence of God and the correctness of the Catholic Church's position. Very thoughtful, provoking, and interesting."

"This book tries our modern, relativistic culture in the court of reason and logic and exposes its flaws and fallacies and will embolden you with the tools to do the same."

"This book is beautifully written. It is a helpful resource to all of us: those who are questioning their faith, those who do not consider God a reasonable possibility and those with strong faith but who are not able to readily explain their faith in its fullness to others."

"I think this book could go a long way toward helping our country find its moorings again. I plan to re-read it, and give it as a gift to friends and family. Highly recommended."

 

If you enjoy F.X. Cronin's
work, you'll delight in this handy
volume by renowned Catholic
philosopher Peter Kreeft.





In these delightful pages and
with characteristic flair, celebrated
Catholic author and speaker Peter Kreeft
gives forty succinct reasons why
he is a Catholic.


The reasons range from the
truth of its claims to the beauty of its
cathedrals (which themselves testify to the
majesty of God) and to the true presence
of Christ in the Eucharist.


Forty Reasons I am a Catholic
is a wise, informative, and fun read.



Reasons include:
  • Because it’s the best of five choices  
     
  • Because Jesus is really, truly, personally, literally present in every consecrated Host in the world
     
  • Because only the Church can whup the devil
     
  • Because of the unprecedented historical fact that the Church has never once lowered her standards, never changed her teaching
     
  • Because only the Catholic Church can save humanity
     
  • Because of the personality of the Church's saints
  • Because of cathedrals  
     
  • Because I want to believe the same things that Jesus taught and that His apostles and their successors and every single Christian in the world believed for fifteen hundred years    
     
  • Because I want the strongest reason to believe the Bible     
     
  • Because of my mother 
     
  • Because of the angels, and their invisible and anonymous mediation
     
  • Because the Catholic Church has been infallibly right about everything she has ever claimed to be infallibly right about
