**Yet the man is completely unassuming, a simple soul, living simply with no pretensions at anything. I would say that his is a monastic life of work, prayer, and vast amounts of writing.**

Sounds like a wonderful apologist with his mind on the right thing!

Amen, brother. His website is fantastic. I have one of his books and I am planning to buy more. Fr. John A. Hardon received him into the Church and wrote the preface to "Biblical Defense of Catholicism" a book I was just reading before coming online.

Yours is a well-written interview and gives us an idea of what this wonderful man is like. God Bless you

His website was a great help to me in college. I don't visit it much, but that's because his work has been incorporated into my intellectual foundation and I'm more interested in the upper levels now. His books are must-haves for any good intro to Catholic Christianity lists

I've visited his blog occasionally, but he seems to use it to make long acerbic replies to people who have just cut off arguments with him. Not having followed the whole discussion, I don't know whether they deserve it or not.

Wow. I want to thank Dave Armstrong for profiling my blog on his blog. It was unsought and undeserved. Same thing with Dr. Patrick Madrid's comments on Envoy Magazine's blog. Goes to prove that most of the time I don't know who's reading this humble work of Catholic self-expression. Thank you both for "that thing you do" and may the Lord continue to richly bless your ministries.

- Read Dave Armstrong's kind review on Vivificat! and on our meeting.
