Converting To Catholicism (Young Adults Pastor Becomes Catholic)

Converting to Catholicism, a young adult protestant pastor becomes Catholic. In today’s video I interview a friend of mine, a Catholic convert, who shares his journey about why he became Catholic.

I have a questions for you. How do you know if you are right? For smaller questions like which restaurant to go to it doesn’t matter. But For bigger questions regarding faith and moral, eternity may be at stake.

Questions like, how do you get to heaven? Or who goes to hell? Or does hell even exist are important questions. How do we know our opinion is right! Other big questions like when does life begin? What is the nature of marriage? How does God invite us to worship Him, or do we make it up as we go along? Or more fundamentally can we know the answers to these questions? In other words, where is truth found?

The Catholic Church claims not only to have the answers to these questions, but claims to be the fulfilment of Jesus’ words, “But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth.” (John 16:13). The claim of the Church is that Catholic truth, is Jesus' teachings handed down to the apostles and the successors, who are guided by the Holy Spirit to this present day to help us understand all that God has revealed for our salvation.

Where is all truth found? This pressing question lead Mike on his journey of converting to Catholicism. This is not something any young adult protestant pastor sets out to do! Not at all. He had theological training, a job lined up at a Church, and was about to start a family with a baby on the way. Converting to Catholicism was the last thing on Mike’s mine. A definite inconvenience. But what every Christian should desire is to do the will of Jesus in all things. It was this seeking that lead Mike to begin to consider Catholicism. Not because He want to be Catholic, but because he saw the Catholic Church making claims that no other denomination was making, such as it taught with the teaching authority of Jesus Christ and that it has the fullness of truth subsisting within it. It the teaching authority of the Catholic Church that appeared to solved this problem, “how do I know I am right”.
