DVD-Case Against Contraception
Is the Church wrong on contraception?
In a world that practically worships the pursuit of sexual pleasure, the Catholic Church’s teaching on contraception can seem unintelligible. Critics say it is outdated, harmful, and theologically unfounded and even faithful Catholics can have difficulty explaining this moral teaching.
That’s why Catholic Answers Studios is releasing Trent Horn’s DVD, The Case Against Contraception. In this dynamic presentation, Trent reveals:
- The logical case against contraception rooted in natural law principles that can be known from reason alone
- The uniform condemnation of contraception in scripture and Church history
- The real story behind the infamous pontifical “birth control commission” that recommended Pope Paul VI change the Church’s teaching on contraception
- Answers to common objections against the Church’s teaching and evidence that contraception has had a negative impact on women and society
- How families can space the births of their children without relying on intrinsic evils like contraception or abortion
Using natural law, Scripture, papal and magisterial teaching, and new insights provided by social science and medicine, Trent puts forward a compelling case with charity and persuasive graciousness.
As we pass the fiftieth anniversary of Humanae Vitae and critics continue to attack its reaffirmation of the Church’s teaching on contraception, this presentation will give you the tools to explain why the Church is unabashedly always on “the side of life.”

From Death to Life: The Fruit of Suffering in Our Lives CD - Sr. Ann Shields
Scripture tells us that Jesus learned obedience through what He suffered. Much of our suffering is wasted because we do not see its purpose in the Christian life. God has so much to teach us about the place of suffering in our lives and the fruits that it can bear, not only for us, but for others.

Mere Christianity Unabridged CD
In 1941 England, when all hope was threatened by the inhumanity of war, C. S. Lewis was invited to give a series of radio lectures addressing the central issues of Christianity. More than half a century later, these talks continue to retain their poignancy. First heard as informal radio broadcasts on the BBC, the lectures were published as three books and subsequently combined as Mere Christianity. C. S. Lewis proves that "at the center of each there is something, or a Someone, who against all divergences of belief, all differences of temperament, all memories of mutual persecution, speaks with the same voice," rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity's many denominations. This twentieth century masterpiece provides an unequaled opportunity for believers and nonbelievers alike to hear a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith.
With a new foreword by Lewis's stepson, Douglas Gresham, this illustrated gift edition evokes the historic time and place of the book's creation.
