This week’s episode of The Journey Home was a humorous and insightful tour through Catholic blogger Jeff Miller’s journey from atheism to the Catholic Church.
In the latest episode of On the Journey, Matt Swaim and Ken Hensley explored the idea of the development of doctrine in regard to the papacy.
On this week’s Deep in Christ, JonMarc and Fr. Peter Grodi addressed accusations by some outside the Church that Catholics engage in cannibalism when they receive the Eucharist.
In a new Insights video short, Jeff Miller shared more about the role G.K. Chesterton played in leading him to the Catholic faith.

A member wondering how to pray as they prepare for baptism, another member who’s been exploring Catholicism online but wants to start meeting Catholic friends in person, and another member who wants to become Catholic but is worried her local parish doesn’t take the faith seriously – these are just a few examples of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network International. Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!
