The 44% Solution: Why Anti-Catholics Should Trust Their Instincts
Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger Goes Into Second Printing!
It has been called "one of the most important apologetic works in decades" and now Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger: The Untold Story of the Lost Books of the Protestant Bible has reached another milestone. A few months ago it was my honor to report that my book broke the all times one-month sales record for Grotto Press. Yesterday, I received news from the publisher that WCBB has officially gone into its second printing! I would like to thank those who picked up my book and encourage you to keep visiting www.HandsOnApologetics.com for additional information that couldn't make it into the book, such as the article below documenting the changes in the Geneva Bible.

Apologetic Classes Coming Soon!
Learn How To Share Your Faith
Do you want to learn how to share, explain, and defend your Catholic Faith? Are you already familiar with Catholic apologetics, but would like to take your knowledge to the next level? If you live in South-eastern Michigan, now is your chance to take that next step.
These classes go beyond using standard proof texts. They focus on the practical aspects of Catholic apologetics. You will learn, not only WHAT to say, but HOW to explain your Faith in an effective manner. I've packed my fifteen years of experience as a professional apologist into these classes. This will be my fourth year teaching this material and I can tell you that it has been fine-tuned and very effective as my former students will attest.
Classes will be held at the E.C.R.C. education center located at the corner of W. Maple Rd. (15 Mile) and Inkster Rd. in Bloomfield, Michigan. These classes are open to all Catholics interested in apologetics. The course material booklet will be available for students for an nominal fee at the beginning of class.
Breakout workshops: For the first time this year, we are going to have break out study sessions that will cover in depth areas outside of Catholic apologetics (e.g. Mormonism, Atheism, Jehovah's Witnesses, New Age, et al.). The time and date for the sessions will be posted on www.HandsOnApologetics.com in the coming weeks.
If you'd like further information, please email me at Gary@HandsOnApologetics.com or visit http://www.ecrc.us/ Hope to see you there!
Final Response To White / Webster On Esdras & Trent
Putting Our Cards On The Table.
This is, I hope, the final chapter in a rather strange foray over the topic of whether Trent "rejected" Esdras. During my debate with James White on May 20, 2004, James questioned me as to whether the Council of Trent contradicted Hippo / Carthage when it "rejected" Esdras as part of the Old Testament canon. My response to him was that the council fathers voted not to address Esdras in its decree and therefore no contradiction existed. A few years later, a Reformed Protestant on the Catholic Answers Forum asked me to expand a little bit on my Esdras response. I replied that I was a little embarrassed for James because he relied on another person's argument (i.e. Bill Webster) without researching the matter more deeply ..."
