NEW! “I just wanted to let you know what I thought of [Upon this Rock]. I don't have nearly as many books as you. I have a couple of 6-foot bookshelves in my home. But I reserve the uppermost shelf for the books that I think are among the best I've read. And your book, Upon This Rock, is top-center of that shelf. It is an astounding book, well-researched, steeped in erudition, and yet it addresses the arguments, such as they are, of modern critics. A truly marvelous book. Easily the best overall book on papal history since Rivington. And, believe me, I've read a few: Butler, Chapman, Rivington himself, Newman (who, I know, never truly went into much depth on this specific topic), etc. Thanks for a job well done.“ Barry U.
“Thanks to Steve Ray for his work on the papacy and his systematic demolition of Bill Webster's claims [in the debates here]. It is one of the more impressive feats of apologetics that I've seen in my brief experience of Catholic theology.“ Jonathan P.
“I want to be a teacher, and if I ever teach a class on the Papacy, I will be using your book as an introduction to the class. It is by far the best and most complete book I have ever read about the supremacy of Peter. The Biblical and early church fathers was well organized and more in depth then I could have ever hoped for. Thank you for your research. Your book will be a very useful tool. For I too wish to get my Masters in early Christian history and Biblical studies. I just wanted to praise your work and say thank you.“ Theresa L.
