Catholic Answers School of Apologetics: Introduction to Church History 1 Home Course

Knowing our Catholic history is extremely important because it is often attacked and misrepresented in the modern world. In order to refute the myths and defend the Church, we must be steeped in our Catholic history and know the people and events that comprise it.

Learning Catholic history is not only important for apologetics, but also for evangelization because some people believe the myths perpetuated against the Church and end up losing their Faith.

Here’s some of what you’ll learn in this course:

• Birthday of the Church
• The Council of Jerusalem
• The Burning of Rome
• The Antipope Who Became a Saint
• The Rise of Islam
• Papal Reform
• The Disaster of the Fourth Crusade

These lessons and others in this course will help you gain insight into the past, so that we can defend our Catholic history from attack and teach it to others.
