Description

How can you believe all this stuff?

This is the number-one question Catholics get asked—and, sometimes, we ask ourselves. Why do we believe that God exists, that he became a man and came to save us, that what looks like a wafer of bread is actually his body? Why do we believe that he inspired a holy book and founded an infallible Church to teach us the one true way to live?

Ever since he became Catholic, Trent Horn has spent a lot of time answering these questions, trying to explain to friends, family, and total strangers the reasons for his faith

  • Some didn’t believe in God, or even in the existence of truth.
  • Others said they were spiritual but didn’t think you needed religion to be happy.
  • Some were Christians who thought Catholic doctrines over-complicated the pure gospel.
  • And some were fellow Catholics who had a hard time understanding everything they professed to believe on Sunday.

Why We’re Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to all these people and more. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it’s the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief—and brings us joy.

PRAISE FOR WHY WE'RE CATHOLIC

"Catholic Answers has carried out a wonderful, apologetic ministry explaining, defending, and advancing the mission of the Church for many years. Trent Horn's Why We're Catholic: Our Reasons for Faith, Hope, and Love is the latest and very useful tool in that work: clear, practical, simply organized, very readable and rich in content. It's a pleasure to recommend it."
—Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Philadelphia

"Whoever loves Christ wants to make Him known. But we can only make Him known if we live our faith and can put it into words. Trent Horn's Why We’re Catholic helps us do precisely that. This book is made for the challenges of our times--I highly recommend it."
—Bishop Thomas Olmsted, Diocese of Phoenix

"Finally! A concise, courteous, and convincing booklet to hand to friends and strangers about the reasonableness of Catholicism."
—Matt Fradd

“If you’ve ever wondered why Catholics believe what they do, Trent’s book is the ideal resource to find the answers. With great clarity and charity, he walks the reader through the most common objections and questions people have about Catholicism. Whether you’re a Catholic looking to deepen your faith or you’re curious about the claims made by the Church, you need to read Why We’re Catholic.”
—Jason Evert, author of Saint John Paul the Great: His Five Loves

"I’ve often said that Trent Horn is the best Catholic apologist alive today, and now he’s written the book that screams “where have you been all my life?" — the simplest, most thorough, most accessible answers to practically every question and objection that atheists, agnostics, secularists, Protestants, and even fellow Catholics may have regarding Catholicism. Why We’re Catholic must find a home on every Catholic’s bookshelf; I promise you, it will gather no dust."
—Leila Miller, author of Primal Loss: The Now Adult Children of Divorce Speak Out

“Why do you believe in God? Why are you Catholic? Why do you pray to the Saints? Why, why, why? Rather than view these questions as an attack, I like to think of them as opportunities to share the "Good News". In his new book, Why We're Catholic, Trent Horn gives you the insight to answer the difficult questions and truly make a difference in the lives of others. It has a permanent place on my bookshelf. It would fit nicely on yours too!”
—Gary Zimak, Catholic speaker, author and radio host

“Let’s face it: some books about Catholicism are overly academic and boring . . . but not this one! Trent’s writing is clear, easy, engaging, and a reminder of the reason for our hope. It should inspire non-Catholics and reignite in Catholics the love for our faith.”
—Rose Sweet, Catholic author and speaker

“In Why We’re Catholic, Trent Horn successfully debunks many of the myths and logical fallacies of atheism and anti-Catholicism. Laying out his arguments in a clear and well-organized flow from one chapter to the next, he brings the reader along, anticipating questions, and giving satisfying answers to all the most common objections. After reading this book, a skeptic will be out of arguments against the Church.”
—James L. Papandrea, author of Handed Down: The Catholic Faith of the Early Christians

    Changed my mind about Catholicism

    Posted by RACHEL FISHER on Nov 12th 2021

    This was the first book I read when I decided to find out more about what the Catholic Church teaches. I love how Trent logically explains the reasons for being Catholic. Book was so good that this was the start of my journey to the start of the Catholic Faith. Recommend to everyone.

    I Love Being Catholic

    Posted by Jerome Carrillo on Sep 4th 2021

    If you're looking for a book to understand Catholicism, basically Why We're Catholic, look no further, you're in the right place. I believe it can be a perfect gift to our non-Catholic friends, as this book can really help them (with an open mind) to understand what we believe. It can also answer some of their most common misconceptions regarding the Catholic faith. A must-have!

    This book is fantastic.

    Posted by S Bacus on Aug 26th 2021

    After being a practicing Catholic, converting 46 years ago, there was something that seemed to be keeping me from feeling truly Catholic. I loved the church and all it's teachings but just didn't seem to be totally tuned in. After reading "Why We're Catholic" I was tuned in. The simple clarity did it for me. Thanks, with all my heart.

    Great Book

    Posted by Margette Baker on Mar 17th 2021

    I loved this so much, by the middle of the first chapter I ordered three more to share. Easy read. Some parts get a little dry, but all-in-all this is a fantastic book. The author explains things in a way that are straightforward and logical. Highly recommend if you’re looking to expand your knowledge or just curious about the Catholic faith.

    Great book!

    Posted by Jonathan Vos on Jan 29th 2021

    This book brought me back to the faith. I had fallen so far away I didn't think I would ever come back. But then I saw a recommendation for this book on Amazon and decided to give it a shot. I'm glad the Holy Spirit lead me to this book. Read this book whether you have fallen away, have doubts, or need a refresher on the faith. I'm thankful for Trent Horn for writing this book and thankful that God keeps pulling me back no matter how far I go. Pick up this excellent book, you won't regret it.

    Excellent Book

    Posted by Samantha Nguyen on Jun 23rd 2020

    I'm nearing the end of the book and this has been so informative. As a cradle Catholic, I was familiar with Mass and some traditions and followed it without question. It wasn't until speaking with a Protestant friend, that helped me question my beliefs...but in a good way! This book has helped me understand more about my faith and has rejuvenated my love for the Catholic Church but most importantly my relationship with God. I think there is still so much I don't know but this helps with many "basics" of the Catholic faith. I also think it's provides a lot of good "defense" for our faith. Thank you Trent Horn and Catholic Answers for writing and publishing this book. It's well written, and easy to understand.
