“Lord, lead me to the fullness of truth whatever it costs me!”
Do you or someone you know have questions about the Catholic Faith? Perhaps you have a family member who is on the fence about becoming Catholic, or you have lingering questions about your own faith.
Here are some exceptional literary resources to help you discover more about the Catholic Church and what Catholics actually believe:
Essential Foundations
- A Good Bible: Consider The Great Adventure Catholic Bible from Ascension to easily track the story of salvation history.
- The Catechism: The Catechism of the Catholic Church maps out the explicit teachings, visual charts, and foundational pillars of Catholic doctrine.
Accessible Theology & Conversion Stories
Pints with Aquinas: Written by Matt Fradd, Pints with Aquinas: 50+ Deep Thoughts From the Angelic Doctorprovides a conversational Q&A framework that simplifies the profound thoughts of St. Thomas Aquinas for everyday readers.
Rome Sweet Home: In Rome Sweet Home: Our Journey to Catholicism, Scott and Kimberly Hahn share a powerful, heartfelt testimonial detailing their intellectual and spiritual journey out of Protestant ministry and into the Church.
You can find all of these foundational materials and many more media resources directly through the official Ascension Press Online Store. (see below reference titles)
