The popular apologetics series “Reason to Believe” will be held Fridays in July and August at the Cathedral of Christ the King, 2699 Peachtree Road, NE.

Each week a priest or deacon will discuss a topic that Catholics may be challenged on by those of other faiths or other Christian denominations.

The topics, which are subject to change, will include: July 13, “The Dignity of Conscience—Making Good Choices and Decisions in a Complex World”; July 20, “Mary: Ever Virgin?—Explaining the Perpetual Virginity of Mary”; July 27, “Drawing Good from Evil—The Power and Purpose of Confession”; Aug. 3, “Where in the World Is Limbo?—Understanding the Recent Vatican Declaration”; Aug. 10, “Soul Mining: Finding God in the Chapel and in the Streets—How Adoration and Catholic Social Teaching Are Linked”; Aug. 17, “English Mass, Latin Mass, Is It All the Same?—Pope Benedict’s Initiative to Restore the Latin Liturgy.”

Each of the sessions will begin with Mass at 6:15 p.m. The presentation will begin at 7 p.m. and will be followed by a question-and-answer session. Light refreshments will be served, and a nursery will be available.

There is no charge to attend “Reason to Believe,” though a free will offering will be taken up at each session.
