Why We're Catholic: Our Reasons for Faith, Hope, and Love by Trent Horn

informative fast-paced

4.0

Book 3 for 2025 is Why We’re Catholic: Our Reasons for Faith, Hope, and Love (2017) by Trent Horn. The book contains five parts that move through general faith doctrine and Catholic-specific teachings. I have read quite a few apologist writings, and this fits well into that genre. I found it to be easy to read and understand. I would caution that sometimes, it is overly simplified, leading to arguments that fall in on themselves when examined closely. That said, it is a good starting place for those curious about the faith or developing a desire to answer questions concerning the faith. It works as well as the first book you read, but I would suggest not making it your last.
