Chase, a twenty-year old man with a cracked skull from a vaulting accident, recovers through the intercession of the Servant of God, Father Emil Kapaun! Welcome to Faith and Reason!
Level: Junior-Senior Text: Catholicism & Reason; Booklets 1, 4 & 5, Beginning Apologetics Our Patron: Our own diocesan saint to be, Father Emil Kapaun Why take “Faith and Reason”? -Faith supports Reason and Reason Supports Faith- Have you ever been challenged about being a Catholic? Do you know people who don’t believe in God? Do you yourself ever have doubts? Do people at school go around trying to get you to join their religion? Do others mock our Catholic devotion to Mary? Do people ask why Catholics are strict? (We really are not…we are just following Christ and His commandments, nothing more, nothing less.) If you think it is hard now, just wait for college! This course will help you to not only explain your Faith to others, but will help you KEEP your precious Faith “Always have your answer ready for people who ask the reason for the hope you all have. But give it with courtesy and respect and with a clear conscience…” (1 Peter 3:15) |
