The latest from CHNetwork
This week’s episode of The Journey Home was an encore of our conversation with Keith Nester, a Methodist pastor who took a long and winding path to the Catholic Faith.
In the latest installment of On the Journey, Matt, Ken, and Kenny looked at how the Catholic Church understands and proclaims the Old Testament in light of the entirety of Divine Revelation.
On a new Insights, LoriAnn Mancini talked about how an experience in Eucharistic Adoration started her on the path from New Age spirituality to the Catholic Church.
And for her August 9th feast day, we shared some background on St. Edith Stein, a convert, nun, and martyr who’s being considered as a possible Doctor of the Church.

A member who wants to become Catholic but has deep ties to their current congregation, another member who’s been atheist for years and is starting to open up to the possibility of God, and all our members who are weighing whether or not this will be the year they start OCIA — 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!
