The Soul of Apologetics

About this book

The Soul of Apologetics, a new prayer resource from Catholic Answers, helps give you the specialized spiritual training you need to defend the truths of Christ's Church. Presented as a series of lessons and exercises, it can be read at once or in parts, and returned to for a lifetime, to keep you spiritually fit for any apologetic opportunity God puts in your path. First, by emphasizing that this work is about saving souls, not winning arguments. Then, through selected prayers, meditations, and appeals to Scripture and Tradition, it helps you develop the interior habits that every effective champion of Catholicism must have. Finally, The Soul of Apologetics helps you build the right spiritual disposition toward the sacred doctrines and practices we advocate. For these truths are not merely academic; they are salvific--holy, living, and powerful. Our faith is a faith of the heart as much as the head, and to defend it, we must love and reverence it.
