Know the Faith. Defend the Faith.

In this week's show I am honored to be joined my Efran Menny.  Efran is a Catholic convert who has been a part of different variations of Protestantism.  We discuss his journey, some key things that got him thinking about the Catholic church, and some struggles he experienced.  He also has a great blog at www.mennythoughts.wordpress.com and has podcast titled Priestly Passion.  Check it out!

In this episode Gary Michuta and I discuss the Deuterocanon.  Those are the books that appear in Catholic Bibles, but are missing from Protestant ones.  Gary gives some insight to why they deserve to be in the canon, when they were first disputed, and a couple tips we can all use to show that they are inspired.  Check out Gary's daily radio program titled Hands On Apologetics on Virgin Most Powerful radio.  His website handsonapologetics.com is full of great material to help defend your faith, and check out his books on garymichuta.com

Matthew is a husband, father, and pursuer of truth.  He is a contributor to Epic Pew, Catholic Exchange, Managing editor at Catholic Stand, and runs a blog at thesimplecatholic.blog.  He has earned an Masters in Theology from Franciscan University of Steubenville and recently started pursuing his dream of being a freelance writer.  In this episode Matthew discusses the Catholic teaching on the Eucharist and the biblical evidence to support it.  We attempted to record this episode a couple times had some technology difficulties.  I highly recommend you check out Matthew's article on the Eucharist at  https://thesimplecatholic.blog/2019/07/27/3-reasons-why-critically-reading-john-6-will-convert-protestants/

Keith Little joins me this week to discuss his faith journey and some aha moments that changed his life.  We discuss his ministry "Biblical Principles for Growth", and his upcoming podcast that launches on Aug 21 on Breadbox Media.  Check out Keith's website at www.biblicalpriciplesforgrowth.org to learn more.

This week's episode is a challenge to take ourselves out of our comfort zone to fulfil the Great Commission that Christ gave us.  These three simple steps are the starting points for evangelization and by no means an exhaustive list.  Don't forget to visit my website tucsonapologetics.org for articles to strengthen your faith.  God bless!
