Fast answers to anti-Catholic claims!

If you're looking for solid Catholic answers to common Protestant challenges, but don't have lots of time, then reach for The One-Minute Apologist.

Here renowned Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong (author of A Biblical Defense of Catholicism and The Catholic Verses) has assembled over sixty of the claims and arguments that Protestants (of all stripes) most frequently level against the Church. Drawing on a lifetime of study -- in Scripture, history, and the works of Catholic and Protestant theologians -- he delivers the essential Catholic replies to each claim, packaged for you in a compact and uniquely usable format.

And since he's a convert from Evangelicalism, Armstrong presents these anti-Catholic claims with an insider's accuracy -- using the special terms, references, and follow-up arguments that you're mostly likely to hear in real-world encounters -- and responds to them in a way Protestants can understand and appreciate.

The One-Minute Apologist is concise, but never superficial. It cites or quotes more than a thousand Scripture verses, along with the words of scores of saints and scholars -- including many respected Protestant sources. Packing centuries of learning and wisdom into just a few tightly structured pages, The One-Minute Apologist decisively refutes common Protestant claims such as:

  • "The Bible is the only infallible source of theological truth."
  • "Peter is not the 'rock' to which Jesus referred."
  • "Celibacy for priests is unnatural and unbiblical."
  • "The Catholic Mass is an abomination."
  • "True Christians cannot fall away from salvation."
  • "Mary had other children besides Jesus."
  • "Indulgences allow Catholics to 'indulge' in sin."
  • "Venerating the saints is a form of idolatry."
  • "The Catholic ban on contraception has no scriptural basis."
  • And over 50 other pervasive Protestant objections to Catholic doctrine and practice!

More accessible than thick theological tomes, more substantial than tracts, and better organized than other "quick answer" books, The One-Minute Apologist is the one source you'll find yourself turning to whenever you have the need to defend the Catholic Faith quickly, credibly, and well.

Dave Armstrong is a Catholic writer, apologist, and evangelist who has been actively proclaiming and defending Christianity for more than twenty years. Formerly a campus missionary, as a Protestant, Armstrong was received into the Catholic Church in 1991 by the late, well-known catechist and theologian Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J. Armstrong's conversion story appeared in the best-selling book Surprised by Truth, and his articles have been published in a number of Catholic periodicals, including The Catholic Answer, This Rock, Envoy, Hands On Apologetics, The Coming Home Journal, and The Latin Mass. His apologetic and writing apostolate was the subject of a feature article in the May 2002 issue of Envoy. Armstrong is the author of the books A Biblical Defense of Catholicism and More Biblical Evidence for Catholicism and of forty-four apologetics articles in The Catholic Answer Bible. His website, Biblical Evidence for Catholicism (www.biblicalcatholic.com), online since March 1997, received the 1998 Catholic Website of the Year award from Envoy, which also nominated Armstrong himself for Best New Evangelist.
