Historical Defense of Catholicism Using quotations from three secular history textbooks I highlight important points that I never knew as a Protestant.
Church History Protestants who are critical of Catholicism assume that at some point in church history before the Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Church became apostate.

In this article I provide a sociological and historical perspective of the development of the church to demonstrate why she became the way she was at various stages of her history. Certainly the Roman Church has been in need of reform at various points in history, but she has also been progressing according to God's plan and purpose. She has been fulfilling her mission on this earth and continues to do so.
