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

No Price Too High
Alex Jones was an "on-fire" Pentecostal minister
in Detroit who was a completely dedicated shepherd of his
flock. He greatly loved his people and they loved him. In
seeking to give his flock the most genuine experience of the
early Church prayer and worship services, he carefully read
Scripture, the Fathers of the Church and writings of the early
saints. The more he read, the more Alex came to the startling
conclusion that the present day Catholic Church - and the
Holy Mass - is the same exact "worship service "
from the very early Church.
Alex
began to share his findings with his parish, and eventually
Alex, and most of his parish, joined the Catholic Church.
This is his incredible story of a black Pentecostal minister's
challenging and dramatic spiritual journey, and the flock
that followed him. Today he preaches with his usual passion
about Christ - as a Catholic deacon! 259 pages, S$29.50

Reasons
to Believe
This book unravels mysteries, corrects misunderstandings,
and offers thoughtful, straightforward responses to common
objections about the Catholic faith.
Bestselling author Scott Hahn, a convert to Catholicism,
has experienced the doubts that so often drive discussions
about God and the Church. In the years before his conversion,
he was first a nonbeliever and then an anti-Catholic clergyman.
In REASONS TO BELIEVE, he explains the "how and why"
of the Catholic faith--drawing from Scripture, his own struggles
and those of other converts, as well as from everyday life
and even natural science. Hahn shows that reason and revelation,
nature and the supernatural, are not opposed to one another;
rather they offer complementary evidence that God exists.
But He doesn't merely exist. He is someone, and He has a
personality, a personal style, that is discernible and knowable.
Hahn leads readers to see that God created the universe
with a purpose and a form--a form that can be found in the
Book of Genesis and that is there when we view the natural
world through a microscope, through a telescope, or through
our contact lenses. 227 pages, Hardcover, S$39.50
