Ever since I discovered Dr Gavin Ashenden in the internet I have watched his videos and found him brilliant and interesting. I was very happily surprised when he entered the Church. And then, on second thought, I was not surprised at all. With a great intellect and heart like his it was just a matter of time before he recognized the Truth and follow Our Lord. He is like St Thomas More. Heroic in faith and courage.
Me too! that's why I'm watching this older video. He is introspective in a way I could never accomplish. He would be wonderful in spiritual counseling.
I am a Catholic and I love my religion and I am yet in a quest to get closer to God and Our Blessed Mother. I am so proud of him as he is so enlightened and committed to the Catholic faith.
love listening to Dr A - i was Anglican too and crossed the Tiber in 2013. what he says is so true about the CofE borrowing the good bits from Catholicism, as an Anglican i too kidded myself for 30years plus that i was really 'Catholic'. **Ave Maria**
@A Friend Ashenden is much praised for his courage in leaving the C of E. however he made much in his testimony about finding Jesus as his saviour only turn away to become a Mary worshipper. That is not courage . It is like a man that once being rescued from getting lost in the fog, turns around and walks straight back into it for a second time. That is not courage it is stupidity.
@A Friend incomprehensible for a born again Christian. Bible says In the latter times, “some shall depart from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. 1 Tim 4;1.
What a wonderful video! Dr Ashenden never disappoints! His sincerity and humility shine through! How refreshing to find someone who is honest about himself. Welcome home to the Catholic Church. We are honoured to receive you! And thank you Kevin Turley for your intelligent questions and insightful comments!
DR. G, YOUR TESTIMONY MADE MY DAY...I'M A FORMER EPISCOPALIAN CONVERT TO ROME AND I HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCES AS YOU TO SOME EXTENT...I LEARNED A LOT FROM YOUR TALK ON THE JOURNEY HOME EARLIER THIS MORNING...YOUR A GREAT SPEAKER AND WITNESS TO CHRIST IN THE EUCHARIST ...AND THE ROSARY..IM NOW GOING TO PRAY THE ROSARY MORE OFTEN AFTER LISTENING TO YOUR TALK..THANK YOU...KEEP UP THE GOOD WORKS.
This interview made me cry. GOD IS SO GOOD!!! Dr. Gavin you ARE a Thomas Moore! Such humility, such wisdom, such integrity! I absolutely loved this! Your wife must also be a true lady of Christ. I will pray for you both and hope to have the pleasure of meeting some day. As you will discover the Catholic circle is small. You have my full support in all you do. P.s I'd love to see you become a Catholic priest. Your exactly what we need, but I will pray only that the will of Almighty God be done for you in your life. Perhaps He can use you as a lay person better, only God knows, but my will would say "hurry up and hear my confessions"! Lol!!! "Fiat Voluntas Tua" from Northern Ireland.
Thanks for a fascinating interview. Kevin Turley is a great interviewer and Gavin Ashenden is a rich man (in the best sense). Some of these episodes from his spiritual experience echo my own!
Thank you, thank you! This has helped my own muddled thoughts and feelings immensely. Struggling in the Cof E for the last year and now considering the leap. God bless you
Dr gavin your a good and faithful servant ,as followers of jesus we will not always be popular and sometimes even hated , but like you gavin I took up my cross a long time ago .
First time seeing this great man and a voice of Truth in the UK.May there be more arise soon to counter the Islamic and progressive culture and sexuality
There can be no doubt that the Church of England has lost its sight and focus on Biblical teaching. The Apostle's creed sums up the very essence of the teachings of Jesus Christ, but the Anglican church of the 21st century has chosen the easy path of appeasement, to pander to the secular values of modern society, of hedonism and woke culture.
Yes - and NO…! I still remain - and I will not leave the sinking ship - and I will FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT ALL MY DAYS AGAINST THESE DARK WOKE FORCES. So, the “entire” Anglican Church has not gone to hell so long as I (and many others) are sat steadfastly in the pews speaking our minds! 😎👍🙏🙏🙏🍻
I grew up in the Catholic faith,it was very trying as a child and I found God later,but have to say I admire some in that part of the church as they will speak up and stand up as others disappointly refuse to,but not everyone is switched on and it is just religion that I experienced as a child
Jesus said ‘I am the way, the truth and the life’. The hymn puts it so well: My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus blood and righteousness… On Christ the solid rock I stand All other ground is sinking sand.
"I am the Truth" The person of Jesus Christ is the Truth. We can only know the truth by knowing the person of Jesus Christ the Divine Truth.. God bless you, 🙏
I think the English have greatly underestimated the reach of 'English Catholicism' apart from Anglican Papalism or any variant. Through the post-War Commonwealth, the English-speaking world experienced a sense of globalism, and when the Mass in vernacular introduced English Masses as the other prominent 'universal' language through which many share. But English Catholicism is best preserved in the sacramentary, the approved Missals and Catholic Bible translations, even if there are national bishops' conferences approving their own text. So I grew up in the Roman Rite as a very English sort of Catholic, and had in so many ways looked to Westminster for formation, when CTS was a great source of material, before the Internet and the growth of American Catholic publishers like St Paul's or Ascension Press. I think the English are slightly unaware how English-speaking Catholics in the Commonwealth have also benefited from their spirituality, their ecclesial history and patrimony.
Roman Catholicism can be traced back to Jesus Christ. Anglicanism can be traced back to Henry VIII in the 16th century when he did not get his way and appointed himself head of CoE. So where is the heresy ?
Why do I sense that there is a sense of gloating in this man becoming a Roman Catholic. Is Christ not at home with all Christians, people of different faiths and non?
because you are being cynical and sceptical. the last thing Dr A could be described as would be a gloater. Christ founded the Catholic Church 2,000 years ago (then of course it was simpy THE Church). if He was as indifferent as you suggest then He would not have bothered to found His Church and the Apostles to die for it.
with all my respect to this holy man, I have to say this. He left the falsehood of secular Anglicanism and embraced the greater falsehood of saints worship in the Roman church. i just hope he will find the another escape way to the true Christianity!!
I am thinking he means the Orthodox Church of course. Devout men of God exist in all the serious denominations - God’s presence is not reserved for Rome alone.
Dr Ashenden "discovered" that Anglicanism isn't true, and that Roman Catholicism is. Althought I disagree with that with all the vehemence I can muster, I respect that if that is the way he thinks he has done what he had to do. He has shown great courage. Maybe he will yet change his mind again.
@@marcokite Roman ideology was not founded the Lord Jesus. It was configuration of man based on the flesh. There have been more atrocities perpetrated by the Roman church than virtually any other organisation. Even connections with the Holocaust.

This brought me great joy! Former Baptist and happy Catholic since 2000 ❤️ Welcome home to both of us!

Yes,I never get tired of listening to Dr.Ashenden.
He is humble,realistic,truthful,honest and has a great sense of humour.

I am so proud of him as he is so enlightened and committed to the Catholic faith.
Such a courageous, brave and faithful man..
What a great inspiration he is!
May Our Lord continue to bless him! Amen
Dr Ashenden is such a great bloke. His sermons on RUclips are brilliant.

You must also be a pagan worshiper for that is the heart of Catholicism.
Crossing the Tiber to religious paganism. The Roman ideology is anti christ. Study the New Testament.

Kevin please do one one such interview every second day. You are that good. The Catholic faith requires you to be brave and ambitious.
Thanks Dr Gavin,! You would make a great confessor.
Welcome home to the Church of Christ Your Grace! Or shall I say, Brother Gavin Ashenden
Thanks to you both. This really enlightens my soul and spirit. God bless your ministry and your future, Gavin.
Rock and Roll Gavin, you still have a ministry to Anglicans!
I agree as well.

Me too, from an old Anglican in Mexico for the last chapter(s)!

A brilliant n erudite defender of the Christian faith.
What a wonderful conversation event is here portrayed
Welcome home
Loved this!
What wisdom.
What an inspiration! If only he could be the English cardinal.
He can’t , he has a Wife.
Brilliant conversation!

Praise the Lord! Mary the mother of Jesus helped you and set you free.

thank you sir for your love of the truth

The truth will out. There's only one word that of the Lord. You cannot change history to for your own ends.
😇💙💙💙👍
What took you so long to become a Catholic
me too
The Jesuits have the Church of England no later than 1845 which was the purpose of the Oxford Movement.
I like the cut of your jib, sir.

Wonderful. Now convert to the original Christianity and become Orthodox
Paganism
The Roman apostate church, responsible for the repression of the truth of the Gospel.the papacy is rotten to the core.

let's hope not. now that he has joined the Church founded by Jesus Christ
Maybe he will wake up one day and realise there is only one mediator between God and man,,, and it isn’t Mary. .it is the Lord Jesus Christ.
@@grahamebennett3875 Yes. It's hard to understand how such a good thinker can continue in such a church. But millions do!
