In a recent video on @TheCounselofTrent, Catholic Answers apologist Trent Horn said that Catholics worship Mary. Whoa – pump the brakes! Isn’t that heresy? Were Catholic apologetics just set back a few centuries? Or is there something more important to understand here? I go into this issue more here: With One Accord: Affirming Catholic Teaching…
Homosexual Unions… Capital Punishment… Atheism… Pachamama… Controversial statements made by Pope Francis have caused even faithful Catholics to divide over how to respond. Here I discuss my thoughts on how these controversies may actually strengthen confidence in the infallibility of the Church (whether the Pope is right or wrong!).

HERE is my recent interview on Catholic vs. Protestant views of Communion (the Eucharist)! In this episode of the Catholic Challenge, we discuss: What is the teaching of the Eucharist and how did it influence my conversion? What are the Old Testament roots for the Eucharist? How do we understand John 6? How do Protestants…
Protestants like to call themselves the “Bible” Christians as opposed to Catholics because they can often produce many scriptural proof texts to support their unique beliefs. But what happens when Catholics show that there are also Catholic proof texts – and some of them undermine foundational traditions of Protestantism itself? Click HERE for full video!
