| Today at veneration of the blessed sacrament I was reflecting on who was the biggest influence in my `reversion to the Catholic faith. After considering the help of all the authors of the books on aplologetics, conversion stories, and catholic theology I read, I think it was Sts. Clement, Ignatious, Ireneous and Justin. God so blessed these guys that they bear strong witness even in the present age.

Hi, Ted,
Great! They were a huge influence on me too....did you ever hear the conversion story of Dion....that hugely famous singer of the 50's, 60's and beyond...he was Presbyterian too. He was a cradle Catholic and then lapsed into Presbyterianism. His story is a bit similar to yours....(I'm a musician too and I love his music!)
All the best,
Roxy

| Yes, I saw Dion a few months ago on EWTN and was very much moved by his testimony.

Hmmm... that list... reminds me of Rod Bennett's Four Witnesses.
