Why We're Catholic: Our Reasons For Faith, Hope, And Love (Case of 20 Books)

I gift every applicant to OCIA and have handed out over 100 to date. Along with Trent’s pamphlet on Why We’re Pro-life. Have received multiple expressions of appreciation for this introduction to the faith.

I give this book every year to those in OCIA ( 4 years of classes) . A great assistance in their journey.

Have been giving this book (now including Why We’re Pro-Life) for 5 years. Always receive appreciative acknowledgement of the gift weeks later from several recipients.

This book is excellent for Order of Christian Initiation for Adults programs. We have been giving this to candidates for a few years and they always rave about how helpful this book is. Trent's clear explanations and organization of topics makes the book easy to use and understand. We especially like that each topic is its own short chapter.

A simple, thorough, concise explanation of our faith. We bought them for the 8th graders at our children's school.

We are giving a copy of this book to each of the students in the RCIA class at the upcoming retreat. It addresses numerous common student questions at a high level since the page count is necessarily limited. Those individuals seeking greater depth can be directed to other sources for more details. This book is an excellent resource in itself.

Very good!

Purchasing these books in bulk allows to share our faith at an economic scale.

This is the fourth time I have purchased multiple cases of these books for my Confirmation class. It is a great resource for young and old to learn the basics of why we believe what we believe as Catholics. I pass them out liberally to share our faith with others.

So far I've ordered 3 boxes to hand out to family, friends,neighbors and prisoners to encourage people to know their faith. I always explain that this book is written at a layman's level with an irenic tone and with a touch of humor. The author uses stories and examples to make his point. He begins with the broad question of: why believe anything and chapter by chapter narrows from "Is there an afterlife to there being one God to Jesus and a need for salvation to Christianity and then narrows to Catholicism.
