TWO Anti-Catholic Protestants Convert to Catholicism
Q: What role did personal experiences and prayer play in deciding to join the Church?

TWO Anti-Catholic Protestants Convert to Catholicism

TWO Anti-Catholic Protestants Convert to Catholicism
Q: What parallel or tension existed between your Protestant upbringings and the Catholic claims you eventually embraced?

Evidence for Jesus Christ and Answering Objections (With Jimmy Akin)
Q: How do you reconcile the various Jewish expectations of the Messiah with the portrayal of Jesus as the Messiah?

A Monk Saves a Life and a Family for Generations (Powerful Story!)
Q: How did she come back? Where does the priest come into all of this?
