Free, printable study guides and listener handouts from A Catholic Take.
These are the handouts I give away on the show. Every one of them started with a question that keeps coming up — from a listener, from a Protestant friend, from somebody in the comment section who wanted to know where the Church gets this stuff. So I went to the sources, wrote it down plainly, and put it on a page you can print.
They are free. Download them, mark them up, tuck them in your Bible, hand them to your brother-in-law. They were made to help Catholics know the Faith and defend it — not to win arguments, but to win souls.

The claim that the Church had no agreed Bible before 1545 — answered. The Council of Florence listed all 73 books by name in 1442, a century before Trent. Four pages: the decisive counterexample, a dated timeline of the earliest canon lists, and why the Church includes the deuterocanon.
