Are Catholics Christian?

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 firm 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. Shane also owns and operates the Internet blog "Complete Christianity," where he engages in Catholic apologetics and catechesis for thousands of readers. More detailed explanations, covering the topics in this book, can also be found on his apologetics page "Real Clear Catholic." 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 'Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults' (RCIA).
