Have you ever asked yourself... Why should I wait for marriage to have sex? How far is too far? How do I say "no"? What if we really love each other? How do I find the right spouse? How do I start over? What about safe sex? How do I know if this is love? These days, virgins may be embarrassed by their lack of "experience" while non-virgins may feel that it's too late for them. Men and women of all ages feel compelled to "take their relationship to the next level" - meaning they think it's time to have sex, not to try on wedding rings. Chastity author and speaker Jason Evert addresses these issues, and dozens more, in If You Really Loved Me: 100 Questions on Dating, Relationships, and Sexual Purity. The questions in this landmark work are the most common ones Evert is asked when speaking about the virtue of chastity in hundreds of Catholic, Evangelical Christian, and public schools. His humerous, friendly, and blunt approach opens hearts and minds to a topic often either rejected out of hand or misunderstood. Teens will find this book a useful guide to starting a relationship, deciding one's vocation, one day finding a potential spouse, and maintaining purity - without forsaking love. This book will give parents and educators new insights to help teens know the difference between love and lust. They may even look at their own lives differently, because as Evert explains, chastity is not only for singles; married coupes must practice this virtue as well. If You Really Loved Me gives readers straight answers to tough questions. Addressing the relationship issues that today's young people face, Evert explains the often-misconstrued virtue of chastity - not as a rejection of human sexuality, but as an affirmation of authentic love. Still in his twenties, Jason Evert speaks internationally to more than 100,000 junior high, high school, and college students each year about God's

Not sure how to defend pre-born life? Whatever the reason for this fear, it causes many of us to pass up opportunities to speak out on behalf of the unborn. You can overcome this fear, says Trent Horn in this new and revised edition of his bestselling classic. In Persuasive Pro-Life- 2nd Edition, you can become a bold and effective apologist for life. Drawing on the latest developments in the post-Roe landscape, Horn helps you cut through the rhetoric of the pro-choice side in order to accurately frame the legal, historical, and scientific issues surrounding abortion. Then he demonstrates--with vivid personal examples from his years of campus activism, how to be charitable, he offers real-life examples on what to say, and what not to say. We must be not just warriors for the pro-life cause, he says, but ambassadors for it. Read Persuasive Pro-Life- 2nd Edition today, and never again be afraid to speak up for the precious and fundamental right to life.

Winning Converts

O'Brien, John A.

When Mormon missionaries come to your door, they have an agenda. They want to give you, your spouse, your children (anyone who will listen), a course of six lessons crafted to get you to abandon the Catholic faith and embrace the Mormon religion. Perhaps people you know (friends, colleagues, relatives) have started the Mormon program of indoctrination. Perhaps they are about to abandon their Catholic faith. Can anything be done? Yes! In this brief but thorough book, you will discover everything you need to rebut what the missionaries say in their six pre-packaged lectures. Armed with this information, you can pull back Catholics tempted to join the Latter Day Saints. Isaiah Bennett dissects the 25 topics covered in the missionaries' lectures. Using his inside knowledge of Mormonism, Bennett packs each short section with the facts you need to show Mormonism's dangers to the people you care about. Each section is filled with Bible verses, passages from Mormon writings, and study pointers. "When Mormons Call: Answering Mormon Missionaries At Your Door" is an easy-to-use handbook that will put missionaries on the defensive. It will give you the knowledge and confidence you need to defend the Catholic faith and demonstrate the errors of Mormonism.

When Mormons Call

Bennett, Isaiah

Catholics revere the pope as the head of their Church; but how much do we know about the papacy itself? This guide will lead you to a deeper understanding of the Holy Father's office. Here you'll find answers to common objections to the papacy, a discussion of historically prominent popes, and explanations of terms such as "papal infallibility." Each section ends with a list of study questions that help you recall important points from the preceding pages. The book includes a glossary of important terms and a chronological list of every pope who has succeeded Peter. "The Papacy" provides readers with everything they need to know to understand the papacy, and to defend it to those who do not. Informative and interesting, this guide is a must for any apologetics library.

The Papacy Learning Guide (Catholic Century)

We've all been taught some basic guidelines for living a good life: "Tell the truth." "Share." "Be on time." In much the same way, Christianity has its own set of guidelines. These lists of core truths that Christians believe and live by are known as creeds. In "Do You Believe?," you'll learn the history of the creeds — the reasons behind them and the way the predominant ones developed. You'll also find out the answers to such questions as: • What is a creed, and why do we have one? • Where did creeds come from? • What "shape" do creeds have? • What do the creeds say about the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Church, and judgment? • What are three reasons that the creeds are useful to Christians? • Are the creeds biblical? • What two main purposes does the Nicene Creed serve? • What heresies do the creeds confront and answer? • What are the considerations that went into the development of the various creeds? • Why do we use "Father" and "He" when speaking about God? This booklet also includes the full texts of the Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed.
