The Sincere Christian (Bishop George Hay) - Trial

This is a classic work on the Catholic faith in a question and answer format by one

of the greatest minds of the church in Scotland, Bishop George Hay.

Bishop Hay was someone who pulled no punches. He was imprisoned as a youth by the British for helping wounded soldiers as a doctor. When he became a bishop he fought

hard for improving Catholic rights under the tough penal laws of his time. As a result
