About this listen

My title explains itself. But it's misleading. There are more than 40 reasons.

In fact, there are at least 10 to the 82nd power, which, I am told, is the number of atoms in the universe. And that's just in ordinary matter, which makes up only four-point-nine percent of the universe, the rest being dark matter and dark energy.

Each of my reasons is an independent point, so I have not organized this book by a succession of chapters or headings. After all, most people only remember a few big ideas or separate points after reading or listening to a book. I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that was a good continuous-process-of-logically-ordered-argumentation" but I've often heard people say, "Oh, that was a good point."

Which takes me back to my main point: "Why are you a Catholic?" is a good question.

A good question deserves a good answer. Here are 40 of mine.

Great summary of the faith!

Peter Kreeft is a gem. He's a storehouse of knowledge and wisdom. He loves the Church and makes me love it more each time I listen to him.

Truth

Great Apologetics, I will be listening to this many times over. Very intellectually simplified, must read or listen.

A great summary of the Catholic Faith

Professor Kreeft provides an outstanding defense of his Catholic faith that is readily accessible to all. It will be of particular interest to Protestants who are curious about the Catholic faith.

Speaks for Itself

I agree with everything he said. I am a cradle Catholic! I was away for awhile but I’m back! Never to leave again!

Helpful

I found this book to be clear and succinct. Helpful during troubling times to be able to articulate solid and non negotiable reasons.
Thank you Dr Kreeft

Excellent and Succint

This book exquisitely, intelligently, philosophically, and theologically explains the necessity of the Catholic Faith. I highly recommend this tiny tome of wisdom to everyone, especially those struggling to find God and protestants struggling to find the true answers to Faith.
