I want to share Catholic Answers with my friends

[TarkanAttila]

I love this website. It has so much wholesome, sensible information on our Catholic faith. So does EWTN. It’s so sensible I want to share it with my Christian brothers and sisters in my world.

However I have a bad habit of arguing with others and speaking rather pompously at times. I mean, I think I am well aware of what the Church teaches, and I try to make good arguments for her teaching. But I just won’t let an argument die until I’m right. It’s a fatal flaw for an apologist and an evangelizer.

But the guys at Catholic Answers know what they’re talking about. I want to offer them the opportunity to know more about this wonderful website and other sources of Catholic information, because I really do believe if the whole world was practising the Catholic faith and loving God as He intended and has taught us, we would almost be in Heaven.

I know I can evangelise by my good works and my joy as a follower of the Way, the Truth, and the Life. But I also want to share the informational truth about our Church. Theology is important (to me, anyway).

How can I share the resources of Catholic Answers with my friends without being an overbearing pill?

You’ll fit right in with the Eastern Orthodox, then.

I kid, I kid!

I love this website too, and have told many at my church about it.
Hopefully they will log on and explore and learn from there.

I actually find it strange that are only 280,000 or so members to this website.

I wish every Catholic on earth was a member and could have his/her questions answered, issues solved or problems lessened.

That is my prayer.

I’d keep it “short and sweet” something like:

I’ve found this really great web site where you can ask all kinds of questions about being Catholic and get great answers. It’s at “catholic.com” so it’s easy to remember. If you get a chance check it out and tell me what you think.

If you think it would help, mention the forums tab.

I’ve kind of struggled with this too… I learned over time that arguments and debates only draw people further from the Church. I remember a quote by St Therese, that prayers and little sacrifices are more effective than any of our words. Pray for everyone to speak to about faith. Don’t argue, but just be friendly, tell them about Christ and the Church in a loving way, and when they’re open, and answer any questions. If they’re not open, just pray for them. Sometimes we argue about faith because we feel like we can convert someone… but we can’t. That’s NOT up to us. We can help someone come to God, but through love, not through argument. God is the one who does the rest. Just be there to answer any questions and suggest the website or any other resources… but be careful about any intellectual pride, feeling superior for knowing about the truth (I’m not saying you feel this way, I am talking about myself here), or debating, or trying to convert someone with your own efforts rather than helping them open up to God so that He can convert them.

God bless
