Newly published by Palmetto Publishing, Concerning Catholicism presents a systematic, side-by-side comparison of official Roman Catholic teachings and Biblical text, written by a seasoned trial attorney and former Catholic.
CHARLESTON, S.C., Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Palmetto Publishing has released CONCERNING CATHOLICISM, a new work by William N. Howard, Esq. that places official Roman Catholic doctrine alongside Scripture in a structured, evidence-based format. Subtitled A "CathVangelical" Journey, the book draws on Howard's decades of experience as a trial attorney to examine questions many Catholics and Evangelical Christians carry but rarely explore in depth.
The book takes readers through key Roman Catholic source texts, including the Catechism of the Council of Trent and The Catholic Catechism, and sets their specific claims next to corresponding Biblical passages. Howard addresses major doctrinal topics such as the papacy, the sacraments, purgatory, and the role of Mary. Rather than offering opinion or polemic, the book adopts what Howard describes as a courtroom style presentation, laying out primary sources on both sides so that readers can weigh the evidence directly. Each chapter follows a disciplined structure rooted in the textual analysis methods Howard has refined across hundreds of legal cases argued in courts nationwide.
The central tension of CONCERNING CATHOLICISM is one of loyalty tested by inquiry. For lifelong Catholics, the question of whether inherited doctrine aligns with Scripture can carry deep personal and spiritual weight. Howard acknowledges this directly, framing the book not as an attack on faith but as a compassionate resource for those who have encountered doubts they could not resolve. The stakes, as the book states plainly, are not financial but eternal. For Evangelical Christians with Catholic family members or friends, the book offers a structured way to understand and discuss doctrinal differences without hostility.
CONCERNING CATHOLICISM is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
