Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why a Lifelong Mormon Entered a Catholic Church
Q: What specific moments or information helped you realize Catholicism was where you belonged?
A pivotal moment was watching a God moment on EWTN with Marcus Grodi's Coming Home program, where a former Mormon explained differences in doctrine, including polygamy, the nature of God, and Mary; the more I researched, the more I found that Catholic teaching offered historical continuity, reverence in liturgy, and the true belief in the Eucharist that I had been missing in Mormon practice.
Why a Lifelong Mormon Entered a Catholic Church
Q: So Beverly, why don't you take the audience to the beginning of your faith journey? How did everything start?
I was raised in a mixed-Christian environment and moved through Methodist and Baptist roots before my husband and I explored different faiths; the Mormon path became appealing due to family ties and the sense of community, but I soon encountered troubling teachings and history that didn't align with what I believed about God, Mary, and Jesus, which ultimately led me to question and leave that faith.
Why NBA All Star Gordon Hayward Became Catholic
Q: How did injuries and recovery influence his faith journey?
During his injuries, his family and faith provided perspective and resilience, and conversations with a sports psychologist and teammates reinforced trusting God through hardship, shaping his spiritual outlook during recovery.
Why NBA All Star Gordon Hayward Became Catholic
Q: What was the turning point that made him commit to Catholicism?
The turning point was the immersive RCIA process, the guidance from Father T, and reading The Eucharist is Really Jesus, which made him feel that he could not ignore the truth of the Catholic faith any longer.
Why NBA All Star Gordon Hayward Became Catholic
Q: What prompted the move from Lutheran upbringing to Catholicism?
A combination of marrying into a Catholic family, conversations with devout Catholics like Joe Mazzulla and Father T, and a deeper dive into Catholic teaching, especially the Eucharist and Church history, led him to explore and ultimately join RCIA.
