What You'll Learn

▼▲
  • The apostolic church: what is was and why it's so important
  • Why Jesus chose a coward and a liar to be the first Pope
  • Tradition: do you know what it really means?
  • The surprising meaning of the term apostle, and how it validates the sacrament of Confession
  • The unlikely apostle who evangelized as far as India
  • Proof that the church from the beginning had a hierarchy, just as she has today
  • The word trinity: did you know that it doesn't appear in the Bible?
  • Why Christians nonetheless believe that God is not one, but a communion of three divine persons
  • Jesus's Great Commission to the apostles (and to you, too): do you know what it is? Are you carrying it out?
  • Why the apostles considered persecution a success rather than failure
  • Why we speak of the "crown" of martyrdom (It has to do with St. Stephen)
  • The many reasons Jews despised the Romans (and the Romans scorned the Jews) - and the difference Christianity made
  • Why St. Paul went to Rome, and Peter, too, along with so many of the great names of the early church, where most were killed
  • Why many portraits of the apostles show them as alike as a dozen eggs
  • Paul's stern warning against factions in Christianity. It's in the Bible: do you know where?
  • The many heresies denounced in the New Testament (the apostles were strict about doctrine)
  • The primacy of the Bishop of Rome: it’s already there in apostolic times
  • How the destruction of the temple in A.D. 70 gave force to the Christian faith
  • And much more from archaeology, history, and Scripture to reveal to you the foundations of our common faith, and to strengthen your own
