Credo: Compendium of the Catholic Faith by Bishop Athanasius Schneider
Sophia Institute Press
Discover the Truth About Heresy
Society is confused about God, morality, and eternity. Catholics face persecution for living their faith. Priests speak out against errors and corruption, only to be marginalized. Bishops who remain faithful are rebuked and sent into exile. This book describes the Catholic Church in the fourth century, with similar patterns recurring today. Bishop Athanasius Schneider calls out to souls: "Know the errors and embrace the truth!"
Systematic Treatment of Errors
Flee from Heresy offers a systematic treatment of over 130 doctrinal errors, from ancient times to the present. It includes English translations of the Church’s major anti-heresy documents. You will learn what heresy is, its history, and how it destroys charity and the spiritual life. Discover the ideological roots of our unsteady times and be better equipped to "test all things; hold fast what is good" (1 Thess. 5:21).
