A Catholic Apologetics Ministry
Tracing the unbroken thread from the Apostles to today — defending the Faith once delivered to the saints.
If Christ founded a Church against which the gates of Hell would not prevail (Mt 16:18), where is that Church today? This site exists to pursue that question with intellectual rigor, charitable honesty, and fidelity to the historical record.
Here you will find careful examinations of Latter-day Saint doctrine measured against Scripture, the early Church Fathers, and the unbroken tradition of Catholic Christianity — not to condemn, but to illuminate.
Every argument is tested against primary sources. Every critique is offered in a spirit of genuine dialogue, grounded in the conviction that truth, followed honestly, leads to one place.
Our Approach →"The Church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth."
— 1 Timothy 3:15
"Where the bishop is present, there let the congregation gather, just as where Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church."
— St. Ignatius of Antioch, c. AD 107
Our Method
Sound apologetics demands more than proof-texting. We examine every question through three complementary lenses.
Every doctrinal claim is weighed against the full witness of Sacred Scripture — read within its literary, historical, and canonical context, not in isolation.
The Church Fathers, early councils, and two millennia of unbroken tradition provide a witness that no restoration movement can replicate or explain away.
We test doctrines on their own terms — showing where competing systems create logical contradictions, and where Catholic teaching resolves them with unity and consistency.
