How to Talk About Same Sex Marriage door Trent Horn
Catholic apologist Trent Horn carefully considers same-sex marriage and provides an in-depth discussion that addresses the misconceptions held by many in our society today. This examination of what marriage really is, and what is is not, provides a truely gracious and persuasive response to the debate surrounding this important topic.
This book is a recent publication for Catholics (2017), and I suppose Protestant Christians, who want to know more about their faith as tied to the Old and New Testament. Normally this type of book would be called apologetics which isn’t a big subject for my usual reading, but we are using this for class for those entering the church as adults. The publisher is Catholic Answers Press which is a newer apologetics publisher.
Apologetics is an old subject in the history of the church, but it usually was carried out with pagan thinkers in mind who had qualms about Christian ideas and theological arguments. I had never heard of this author before but apparently, he is a presence on social media. According to the author blurb he is pursuing a graduate degree in philosophy. The book is short but fairly dense at two hundred nineteen pages. It approaches it subject as a beginner’s book, but it seemed more advanced that that to me. The 200 or so footnotes are numerical and not restarted at each chapter. I don’t like restarted footnotes since I read them.
There are 25 chapters divided between 5 parts. There are a few prayers listed and a guide to confession. Endnotes are given last. This is a good-looking book with nice typeface/font and book physical construction for a paperback book. There are three bullet points to summarize each chapter and at least one sidebar per chapter. This follows the layout of the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Because this book is written thematically no claim to be in any way exhaustive can be attempted by Horn. Each chapter has a personal example from Horn and it is used as a launching off point for what he is talking about. This book is a survey of common topics which people wondering about the Catholic church might have and might find useful if they took that inquiry seriously. Some of his arguments are weak in favor of his points to me, but that doesn’t mean that the whole book is flawed. It is not a catechism itself but an attempt to answer logically some basic questions for Catholics who want to be able to find out more about their faith. Or, for people who want to see the biblical connections to Catholicism drawn out larger for them. Most nonreligious people would not be interested in this book. The title comes for the New Testament 1 Peter 3:15 which requires Christians to be able to make some response for the faith we hold.… (meer)

Liked his perspective and that he spoke about recent issues
Have you ever read something in the Bible and just scratched your head, or been challenged by a skeptic to explain a seemingly scandalous verse? You re not alone. The Bible contains more than a few hard sayings (John 6:60): ancient idioms, apparent contradictions, myth-like events and figures, and passages that seem to be embarrassingly out of step with modern culture or science. Trent Horn can help. In Hard Sayings, Trent looks at dozens of the most confounding passages in Scripture and offers clear, reasonable, and Catholic keys to unlocking their true meaning.… (meer)
