Welcome to the Council of Trend Podcast, a production of Catholic Answers.

Hey everyone, welcome to the Council of Trend Podcast.

I'm your host, Catholic Answers Apologist and Speaker, Trent Horn.

This is kind of a part two episode.

In part one, I shared a talk I gave at the Franciscan University of Stubanville last year,

sorry, last summer, that they are defending the faith conference on how the easiest way

to defend your faith.

You don't need an encyclopedia of Catholic knowledge.

If you just learn how to ask questions, listen, and find common ground, you can have great

conversations.

In part two, and this is something I do in a lot of different places, and it's always fun

because it's always different.

I want to show people you can do this.

So I'll play a game where I'll ask the audience members to role play and present objections

to the Catholic faith to me.

And I don't know what they're going to say.

They're not plants.

They're just random audience members.

And I've done this at different conferences around the country.

I asked them to give me a random objection.

And my goal is to try to get as far as I can in the conversation by only asking questions.

I kind of tie my hands behind my back, and I only ask questions.
