SAN DIEGO, Sept. 21, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ — Before, during, and after Pope Francis’s historic Sept. 22-27 visit to the United States, experts from Catholic Answers are available for media interviews to explain and comment on all aspects of the pope’s visit.
Catholic Answers experts Jimmy Akin, Tim Staples, and Trent Horn will be available for audio or video interviews. Each is an internationally known author, speaker, and debater.
Akin has more than 20 years of experience defending and explaining the Catholic Faith, along with extensive background in the Bible, theology, the Church Fathers, philosophy, canon law, and liturgy. His publications include The Drama of Salvation, The Fathers Know Best, and Inside the Mind of Pope Francis.
Staples is a former Protestant youth minister. Determined to prove Catholicism wrong, he instead became convinced through his extensive studies that it was true and now has more than 20 years of experience in Catholic apologetics. His publications include Behold Your Mother, Catholic Answers to Common Objections, and Defending Your Faith.
As a member of the millennial generation, Horn provides keen insights on how young people view the Catholic Faith. Horn holds a master’s degree in theology and specializes in controversial subjects such as same-sex marriage, abortion, and the existence of God. His publications include Answering Atheism, Persuasive Pro-life, and God: Supreme Being or Imaginary Friend?
