StevieWeevie Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Could anybody recommend some books please that would be particularly useful for an ex catholic. I've read Stephen Uhl. I like hearing people's stories, but also anything looking at the doctrines and teachings. Also any websites,youtube sites, videos or podcasts.

Geezer Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I can give you a list of scholars/aurhors that I've found to be extremely helpful. I was a Christian fundamentalist & that is probably more problematic than being Catholic. Bart Ehrman, Robert M. Price, David Fitzgerald, Hermann Detering. Their books are on Amazon. I prefer the Kindle additions but they have them in book form too. Just google their names & a list of their books will be provided. I can reference more but that will probably keep you busy for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator TheRedneckProfessor Posted April 27, 2017 Super Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2017 I would highly recommend the bible for anyone struggling to overcome their faith. It may seem counter intuitive; but it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
