Are Catholics Christian? Is the Catholic Church a cult? Do Catholics worship Mary? These are common Evangelical questions that Catholics deal with in America's Bible Belt and elsewhere. Shane Schaetzel, an Evangelical convert to the Catholic Church through Anglicanism, deals with these questions in a compassionate but effective way, having once asked them himself. Here, in the pages of this book, you'll learn what Catholics really believe about: the Bible, Mary, the Saints, Purgatory, the Sacraments, Salvation and the Church.

Schaetzel also runs an Internet apostolate called "Catholic in the Ozarks," where he engages in Catholic apologetics and catechesis for thousands of his readers. More detailed explanations, covering the topics in this book, can also be found there. This book is an excellent resource for Evangelicals seeking answers about the Catholic Church, and Catholics seeking effective ways to answer Evangelical questions. It has also been used in Catholic parishes in the 'Order of Christian Initiation for Adults' (OCIA). Shane Schaetzel is a Catholic catechist and apologist. His articles have been featured on well-known Catholic journals such as: Church Militant, LifeSiteNews, The Remnant Newspaper, Catholic Online and Forward in Christ Magazine.
