What Every Catholic Should Ask

This book presents a unique collection of correspondence between two friends who have spent many hours discussing their faiths--one a Catholic priest, the other an evangelical minister. Their candid dialogue illustrates how we can talk about opposing beliefs without resorting to criticism that is mean-spirited, sensationalistic, or inaccurate. The result is a one-of-a-kind, balanced presentation of six key issues including how a person becomes saved, who the teachers and rulers of the church are, and what it takes to get to heaven. The fresh insights bring clarity and respect to both sides of the ongoing dialogue between Catholics and evangelical Christians, and readers will benefit by being able to make their own informed conclusions about the differences.

Why is it often difficult for evangelical Christians to talk about Christianity with their Catholic friends? What are the differences that sometimes lead to misunderstandings between the two? Capturing the heartbeat of the Roman Catholic way of life, Talking with Catholic Friends and Family provides an insightful glimpse into the way Catholics think about God, the church, getting to heaven, and the practice of their religion. With compassion and clarity, James McCarthy tells real–life stories that contrast biblical Christianity with Catholicism—and does so in a way that emphasizes what true saving faith is all about. Readers will learn: <ul>
<li>ways that Catholics and evangelicals view Jesus and salvation differently</li> <li>Tradition shapes what Catholics believe</li> <li>to minister more lovingly and effectively to their Catholic friends</li> </ul>

Talking with Catholic Friends and Family: Understanding…How They Think and Feel, Why They Trust in Tradition, What the Bible Teaches

Una obra que analiza el nuevo catecismo a la luz de los Escrituras y revela cómo la Iglesia Católica Romana todavía difiere mucho del verdadero cristianismo bíblico.

Alex Kim has a secret and he’s certain that if the students of University Christian Fellowship had known it, they never would have elected him president. His hope was that if he did a good job and God blessed their ministry on campus, no one would care. That was before John Calvin came to Berkeley. Now Rod Sutherland, UCF’s vice president, is on a crusade. He’s trying to convince the others that Calvin was right about predestination: God has already decided who goes to heaven and who goes to hell. An increasing number of students agree with Rod. Jamie Alfono, the group’s treasurer, isn’t among them. “Anyone can accept Christ’s offer of salvation,” Jamie says. Angela León, a girl with a passion for truth, concurs. “God predestining babies to hell? I’m sorry; that can’t be right.” With UCF divided and ready to fold, Elliot, a doctoral student, proposes that they form a committee to solve the mystery of predestination once and for all. The only way to reunite the group and save UCF is for them to understand the true meaning of predestination. “If we figure it out,” Jamie says, “we could win the Nobel Prize for Theology.” If we don’t, Alex thinks to himself, UCF is finished and my year as president is going to end in disaster . . . again.

When Catechism of the Catholic Church broke onto the N.Y. Times bestseller list, its astonishing success confirmed the overwhelming interest of Catholics and Protestants in understanding modern Catholicism. Has the recent openness among denominations affected Catholic teachings? In the new spirit of cooperation, is there any reason why Catholics and Protestants should remain divided?
This powerful and insightful examination of the Catholic Church provides:
<ul>
<li>a side-by-side comparison of Scripture with the first new worldwide Catholic catechism in 400 years</li>
<li>a summary of how modern Catholicism views grace, works, and heaven</li>
<li>24 ways the Catholic plan of salvation still stands in contrast to biblical truth</li>
<li>a balanced overview of how the authority structure of the Roman Catholic Church compares with that of the New Testament church</li>
<li>an explanation of how participation in the Mass and other sacraments is inconsistent with faith in Christ as Savior</li>
</ul>

REVIEWS BY EARLY READERSI couldn't put it down. Several times I laughed out loud. One time I actually got mad at a character. That's not like me.-Roger Schiele, San Antonio, Texas One of the ten best books that I've read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Exciting, engaging, innovative, inspirational, and informative, all at once.- Jim Haesemeyer, Lubbock, TexasA "novel" and fascinating approach to a difficult topic. Compelling and easy to read, this book challenges the reader to examine in a non-superficial way what the Bible teaches about the controversial topics of predestination and election.-George Sturm, Pogradec, Albania.The evening I started, I couldn't stop reading until three in the morning. The way the author presented God, His grace and love to sinners, and His plans and blessings for those in Christ, moved me to worship. I kept having to wipe tears away as I read. I feel as excited and as enlightened as Alex when he discovered the truth.-Emily R. Knott, Madrid, SpainWhat a great way to discuss a difficult issue like predestination, which usually reminds me of working out at a mental bench press. The characters were like people I've known. The conversations were like ones I've had at church or after a Bible study.-Francisco Ramirez, Minneapolis, MinnesotaThis book challenged my thinking, hooking me into a well written story while carefully dissecting the Calvinist-Arminian debate. Compelling.-Chris Schroeder, Mt. Clemens, MichiganMy wife and I have worked with college students for the last ten years. They're always asking about Calvinism. We had almost given up on the possibility of a solid, scriptural response. This book-which I finished in one day-renewed our hope that this topic isn't beyond our grasp after all.-Brady Collier, Wolfforth, TexasEngaging. Reminded me of my college days. Though I do not agree with all of James McCarthy's theological conclusions, "John Calvin Goes to Berkeley" is a good portrayal of what happens when young Christians are committed to living for Christ and sharing the gospel with their fellow students.-Jeff Brown, Nuremberg, GermanyREVIEW OF BOOK SERIES TRAILERVery cool trailer. Gave me chills.-Youtube.com viewer.COPY ON BACK OF BOOKAlex Kim has a secret and he's certain that if the students of University Christian Fellowship had known it, they never would have elected him president.
