In a new On the Journey short, Ken Hensley made the point that nobody truly reads Scripture objectively.

In our latest written story, Fr. Jerry Brown, a former Episcopalian, shared the joys and sorrows along his journey to Catholicism and the Catholic priesthood.

And on a new Insights, Jennifer Southers, a former Quaker, shared how she has worked through some of her struggles with Catholic teachings on Mary.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION

Gayle Somers published her new book on Marian typology from her perspective as a Catholic convert.

Jim Wahlberg shared the role that Mother Teresa played in his return to the Church.

Keith Little interviewed former Baptist pastor Scott Oakland about his journey to the Catholic Faith.

And on their podcast, The Popcorn Cathedral, former Baptist Rod Bennett and his son Jack concluded their series on the age-old question: Why didn’t Indiana Jones convert?

APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK

Jeff Miller reflected on the theology of time travel in sci-fi stories and the Sacrament of Confession.

And Bishop James Conley of the Diocese of Lincoln, himself a convert, shared a pastoral letter on mental health in which he shared some of his own experience of mental health difficulties.

A member preparing for their first confession since entering the Church at Easter, another member who’s praying their children will return to the sacraments, and all our members who just entered the Church at Pentecost — these are just a few of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network. Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!
