Stunned by Scripture: How the Bible Made Me Catholic (Signed by Dr. Bergsma)


• What led Dr. John Bergsma to become Catholic?
• What role did Scripture play in his conversion?
• How did he explain his conversion to his family?

CP 294


• What led Dr. John Bergsma to become Catholic?
• What role did Scripture play in his conversion?
• How did he explain his conversion to his family?

  • The Pope, devotion to Mary, confession … just where are these topics in the Bible? Why does the Catholic Church seem to focus on so many things that aren’t Scriptural?

    Or so thought former Protestant pastor John Bergsma.

    Stunned by Scripture: How the Bible Made Me Catholic is an engaging examination of the things Dr. Bergsma once considered obstacles to ever becoming Catholic himself. Over an eighteen-month spiritual journey, Bergsma was stunned again and again by the biblical support he found for even the stickiest teachings of the Catholic Church.

    Weaving his personal story into clear explanations of Catholic teachings as found in Scripture, Dr. Bergsma explores seven key Catholic doctrines, including:

    • The Pope
    • Devotion to Mary
    • Confession
    • The Eucharist
    • The priesthood
    • Belief in the Bible alone
    • Salvation by faith alone theologies


    Stunned by Scripture will help Catholics understand, defend, and explain the biblical basis for the Faith and show them how the Bible solidly supports even the most frequently misunderstood Catholic teachings.

The Bible Made me Catholic

As a fairly recent revert to Catholicism from an evangelical non-denominational upbringing this book only confirmed why I came back to The Church that Our Lord founded. Thank you Dr. Bergsma!! Ad Jesum per Mariam

A real page turner!!

I recently purchased Dr. Bergsma's book directly from the publisher, Our Sunday Visitor, as it has been out of stock here for some time. I completed the book in less than a week. It is very easy to read and understand. I enjoyed this book and how Dr. Bergsma explained his understanding of the Bible while a Protestant and how he came to understand the Catholic faith by using Scripture and the Church Fathers. One of the best conversion stories that I have read! I would recommend this to anyone.

Stunned by scripture

Just started reading this and it already affirms that what we as Catholics are taught about our faith is found in scripture. Can’t wait to read all of it.
