The latest from CHNetwork

This week’s episode of The Journey Home was a fascinating discussion with former atheist Dr. Lawrence Feingold about how art and beauty led him to the Catholic Faith.

Marcus Grodi joined Larry Chapp’s YouTube channel to talk “Red Zone” thinking and a whole bunch of other things besides.

Marcus Grodi also posted the latest installment of his series on Fr. John Thayer, the first U.S.-born clergy convert to Catholicism to become a Catholic priest.

In a new On the Journey, Matt Swaim concluded his 5-part conversion story by discussing elements of his Evangelicalism that were fulfilled and elevated when he became Catholic.

On the latest episode of Deep in Christ, JonMarc Grodi and Kenny Burchard concluded their discussion of “cruciform discipleship” by discussing the suffering and the Christian life.

And in our latest Signposts video, Pat Flynn shared his journey from Cradle Catholicism to skepticism, atheism and scientific materialism before returning to the Catholic faith.

A returning Catholic praying their spouse will be open to returning as well, a convert praying to discern their vocation, and a member who’s finally entered the Church after a long and complicated journey – 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!
