  • "Everything you love about the Evangelicalism is in the Catholic church - you just have to find it."
    I am so excited to share Drew and Gina's conversion story! Both Gina and Drew found themselves longing for the fullness of the Christian faith, which eventually led them to the Catholic Church. We talked the papacy, interpreting Scripture, and the Jewish roots of Christianity - all while Drew and Gina bounced their sweet baby girl on their laps! This was such an amazing conversation, all the way through to their very last answers, so be sure to watch the full interview.
    Drew is launching a Catholic channel of his own! Check it out here: / @drewthecatholic

    "When we disagree with the church we're wrong and we figure out why we're wrong." That is so much better than feeling required to fight for supremacy of your own beliefs.

      There's a branch of Protestantism that only recognizes the King James Bible as being "inspired." These know-nothings don't understand the how, and the why and the politics of that version of the Bible.
      There has always been a strain of anti-Catholicism in American evangelical Protestantism. I've been reading a book on the history of England, which explains a lot, beginning with Henry VIII's brutal persecution of the Catholic Church because it wouldn't grant him a divorce.

    Ireneaus Against the Heresies book 3 ch 3 is one great piece of evidence. Understanding the Jewish roots of the papacy. It all come together. And then Our Lady of Lourdes “I am the immaculate conception” was the cherry on top.

      Hahaha! Luckily it all worked out, perhaps with a little help from some guardian angels. She was actually napping when I first arrived, and woke up literally as we were counting down to begin. It ended up working out nicely that way, rather than us needing to stop in the middle. And hey, what could be more Catholic than having a little one be part of the conversation. 💝

    Peter in Acts Chapter 5 of the story of Ananias and Sapphira and its parallel to Joshua 7 in the story of Achan, is a great find. Both the first successors of the high priest from the old and the new testament, the Sanhedrin was the institution of the universal Jewish institution commanded by God. And the Catholic church is the new covenant universal church established by Jesus.

    16:41. “All we need is the bible”. I have to say that particular part in this video is what really got me to Catholicism. It’s so obvious that if all we need is the Bible, then everybody would agree with everything in the Bible snd no one would ever have any disagreements over any single passage in the Bible, but thousands upon thousands if not millions upon millions of people, disagree with all sorts of things in the Bible resulting in tens of thousands of denominations of Christianity … it’s just insane. Sure the Bible is the inspired word of God and is Infallible. But the people trying to interpret it are definitely fallible! Long story short, this is what brought me to Catholicism - well that and John chapter 6 of course. Third would be Mary as our mother and queen of the heavens .. Which all protestants ignore.

    In all simplicity it’s not hard to see The Church came first, before the New Testament was written. It’s also true that the original purpose of the scriptures was their reading during the liturgy. In fact the whole impetus for the canon was what was allowed to be read as God’s Word at the liturgy. Taken in conjunction with the fact of wide spread illiteracy Sola Scriptura was never the norm!

    In the traditional catholic church... maiden's of light LED us to the light. At st. Mary's Church we had two types of Maidens they were called sisters or nuns the other type of Maidens were called maiden's of Christ or maidens of light the maiden's of Christ we're not nuns they were virgins who gave their life to Christ they did not marry they were part of the laity group these maidens hollered to us you're going to get save today when the bishop confirms you and anoint your head close your eyes repent of your sins and ask Jesus into your heart so we opened our eyes and we were all weeping we felt on fire... what happened? We were led to the light by the maidens of light...

    This is terrific, except Gina's comment, ".... after studying the Church Fathers, decided that the Catholic Church was the closest...". The Early Church is Christ's Church, IS the Catholic Church! Not the "closest"... Drew did not read (Pope) Clement's letter to Corinth, regarding "his"/The Pope's authority, and he knew Peter and Paul directly... interesting that his Letter didn't prove the Papacy to him....
