Book Description

November 2005
Being Catholic isn't easy. In fact, it's just gotten harder.

With the recent election of our current Pope, a new wave of attacks is under way by the enemies of the Catholic Church. From this point forward, every Catholic will come face-to-face with the vicious anti-Catholic attacks that are being launched against the faith.

Here at Catholic Answers, the most effective products for countering attacks and clearing up misunderstandings have been our tracts. They've been around since the beginning of the apostolate and have resulted in many thousands of conversions. These tracts provide a real point of contact for someone in discovering the truths of the Catholic faith.

We've decided to compile seventy of the best tracts into one cohesive, comprehensive book that can be used by anyone, anytime, anywhere to defend the Catholic faith.

"The Essential Catholic Survival Guide" is indexed according to topic in a unique question-and-answer format that allows the reader to find the right answer to any question instantly.

It covers the questions and misconceptions people have about the Catholic faith on a variety of topics, including:

* The Church and the papacy
* Scripture and Tradition
* Mary and the saints
* The sacraments
* Salvation
* Last things
* Morality and science
* Anti-Catholicism
* Non-Catholic churches and movements
* Practical apologetics

It's the essence of Catholic apologetics - all rolled up into one attractive, easy-to-use manual that is destined to become the most effective tool of its kind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome starter, August 17, 2008
By 
Nathan Waters (Al Taqaddum, Iraq) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Essential Catholic Survival Guide (Paperback)
I am a former Southern Baptist who grew up anti-catholic. I used to Bible thump every catholic that I knew showing them how their faith was heretical and how all of the answers were in the Bible not in the Roman Catholic Church. I went to RCIA to understand the Catholic position better and to debate the "intellectual" teachers of the class. Long story short, I've been to RCIA three times, first time to debate, second time (due to a rude awakening of truth)to possibly join but not yet ready due to some topics I was unsure about, and a third time to 100% conversion to the Catholic faith not just because of the Holy Spirit's guidance but also to the vast supportive evidence that the Roman Catholic Church is the true church of God. This book is a tool that I use now to bring back former Catholics into the church as well as answer all of the tough questions that come to me from evangelicals. I buy this book frequently for devout Catholics to read and grow in the apologetic side of their faith. I will be honest though, this book is a starter book to apologetics, but it has a great section of references for you to read if you want to grow in your skills as an apologist. I highly recommend this Survival Guide. On another note, I would also recommend to all Catholics to read "The Gospel According to Rome." My mother gave it to me as a last ditch effort to keep me Protestant. I use it as a tool to see how my skills as an apologist grow by answering many of the statements in that book with solid Catholic responses. Don't do what I did when I was an evangelical Protestant and just read one sided books, read what both sides have to offer and grow in your faith and see the truth for yourself. This is a great site as well. catholicanswers.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Essential Catholic Survival Guide (Paperback)
Everything you ever wanted to know but was too lazy to research. BeHold the New standard. Every Catholic and Protestant should read this book. This might be the catalyst for quenching the cocoon and dictatorship of relativism and pluralism. Catholic Answers have done it again. Great work team

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for cradle catholics to new converts!, July 6, 2006
This review is from: Essential Catholic Survival Guide (Paperback)
This is an excellent book. It is easy to read with the question and answer format. It covers just about everything you would want to know about Catholicism and how it compares to other religions. I recommend it to all my Catholic friends and family and anyone interested in finding out a little more about the Catholic faith.
