IN THIS CHAPTER

Defining the real, practical meaning of faith

Discovering the ways God reveals truth

Believing in the written and spoken word of God

Using reason to defend what you believe

You may think that having faith is similar to believing in fairy tales, UFOs, ghosts, abominable snowmen, the Loch Ness monster, or Bigfoot. But faith is something entirely different. Faith is not the enemy of reason — it is merely above reason. In this chapter, we tell you what faith really is and explain all the divine truths that Catholics believe in. We also sum up some proofs for God’s existence that will make your faith stronger.
