The first testimonies to give you all the reasons for becoming Catholic These eleven personal conversion accounts are unlike any you’ve ever read, they’re packed with biblical theological and historical proofs for Catholicism. Each year thousands of atheists, Evangelicals, Fundamentalists, and Pentecostals are being surprised by Catholic truth – and these converts tell you why. “These converts, coming from varied backgrounds, converged on the Catholic faith because their intellects were enlightened by divine grace to accept its truth…They bring apologetics to life in an exciting way.” - Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas, author of The Bible and the Mass “I’m privileged to know personally several contributors to Surprised by Truth. Each is deeply committed to Jesus Christ; each relentlessly sought Him and was amazed at where he found Him.” - Fr. Mitchell Pacwa, S.J., host of EWTN Live “These eleven stories of conversion merge into a sustained argument for the truth of the Catholic faith. The converts’ anxieties, doubts, reasons, and affirmations are reported candidly – nothing is held back.” - Karl Keating, author of Catholicism and Fundamentalism and What Catholics Really Believe “The Apostles preached the Catholic faith regardless of the cost. These converts have accepted that faith – in each case at a great cost. What they learned is here distilled in a masterpiece of Catholic apologetics.” - Most Reverend Charles Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Denver, Colorado “Conversion involves many strands of theological and personal struggles. Surprised by Truth weaves those strands in a tapestry of great beauty.” - Kimberley Hahn, co-author of Rome Sweet Home Edited by Patrick Madrid 272 pages, Paperback
