Patrick Madrid vs. Elder Gary Coleman
Topics:
“Which is true? The Catholic Doctrine of the Trinity or the Mormon Doctrine of Eternal Progression?” and
“Was There Really a Great Apostasy?”
In this historic and gentlemanly debate, Patrick Madrid becomes the first Catholic apologist to formally debate an official representative of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormon Church). President Coleman was at the time an LDS Mission President in Southern California. He has subsequently been called to serve as a General Authority in the LDS Church (Quorum of the Seventy).
This exciting exchange was held in 1990 at a large Catholic parish in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles before an audience of approximately 600 Catholics and Mormons. In this respectful yet hard-hitting exchange, the Catholic and Mormon positions on these two central issues are carefully laid out and then critiqued & defended. The LDS Church teaches that in the first few centuries of the Church, there was a complete apostasy that resulted in its utter failure, collapse, and disappearance until it was “restored” in 1831 by Mormonism’s founder, Joseph Smith, Jr. Patrick Madrid uses Scripture and the facts of early Church history to show that this is theory is not true. The section on the Trinity provides a spirited exchange in which the LDS speaker offers a critique of the Catholic doctrine of “One God in three Persons” and argues for the Mormon Church’s doctrine that there are many Gods (“a plurality of Gods”). The audience Q&A section at the end of the debate is very illuminating! Many Catholics have used this dialogue set as a helpful apologetics tool in discussions with their Mormon friends. Informative, eye-opening, and exciting!

Love these!
We used the summer faith adventure for a three half-day VBS program at our parish. The material was easy to incorporate into our program.
It would be really great if the early access included a digital download or a DVD option for the videos. Thanks!
Fabulous content...The title says it ALL - perfectly true.
I bought 2 copies for 2 of my grandkids who are heading to college in Aug. I read most of the book and thought it was great -- just basic god ideas!!!!!!!
BEAUTIFUL
My grandchildren LOVE this book! It's like "Where's Waldo" but in a religious theme that teaches them the life of Our Lord. Very well done!
I like the wide variety of prayers.
Love it !
I love Divine Mercy . Say the chaplet at 3 PM every day and sometimes more often.. Jacqueline Lesniewski. My husband John has the Sacred Heart case and loves it as well.
Very cute and engaging!
I love the beautiful crucifix on the case I bought. It makes a great statement in everyday usage. I've gotten lots of compliments already.
Can i buy some more?
Beautiful and a life saver.
The images are beautiful and capture the events perfectly. The scripture verse references are useful for the bigger kids to look deeper. I have long been perplexed why anyone could be resistant to the True Presence, knowing that throughout the Gospels, what Jesus says, happens. This book brings that to life clearly.
Wow! Bravo Pat! Flawless apologetics.
This dialogue was pretty much over after Patrick Madrid’s talk on the so called apostasy. Nothing that Mr. Coleman could have said to refute it. Excellent work once again Mr. Madrid!!
Great refute of the so-called Apostasy!
