Summary: Welcome to Catholic apologetics, led by Dr. Jim Dobbins, Author of Take My Hand: A personal retreat companion. This is a podcast of classes we hold each Sunday after the 5:00PM Mass at our parish, St. William of York, in Stafford, Virginia. Just finished an RCIA program? This is the next stop on your faith journey. In these classes we look at the different truths of Catholic doctrine and why we know they are true. We also discuss apologetics, spiritual growth, examine doctrine and the liturgy of the Catholic Mass and do scripture studies. Please encourage your friends to listen. I also encourage you to leave a comment about our podcasts. Since I can no longer post documents, if you want the slides or any other documents for any class, just e-mail me at jhdphd@gmail.com and I will reply with the documents attached. If you are getting the class files from iTunes and would like to see the full set of available classes for download, you can see and download them all at http://yorked.podomatic.com Please also consider going to http://yorked.podomatic.com and become a subscriber. It is free, helps our ratings, and thus helps us reach more people to help. With this podcast of Class 12, we are now finished our series on the Book of Revelation. I hope you enjoyed it and now have a better understanding of this book of scripture. The Book of Revelation is said to be the most read and least understood book of the bible. Our next series will be a set of discussions on apologetics, covering what the teachings of the Church are on various topics often misunderstood by non-Catholics, such as the Mass, the Eucharist, confession, sacraments, the communion of saints, purgatory, and the like. If there is a topic you would like us to discuss, please e-mail me directly at jhdphd@gmail.com. Please invite your friends to join us. I also recommend you get a marvelous CD titled Welcome to the Catholic Church, from Harmony Media. This CD can be ordered from Ignatius Press, the 101 Foundation, or from your local Catholic book store (ex: http://realcatholic.com/ in Richmond, Va). This CD is a huge treasure trove of material on the Catholic Church, including two searchable bibles, the Catechisms, Council documents, and many, many other documents. I highly recommend it, and it is a genuine bargain.
