The latest from CHNetwork

Are you leading OCIA classes this year? We have free resources to assist you along the way!

This week’s episode of The Journey Home was an encore of our conversation with Fr. Boniface Hicks, who shared how he went from being an atheist to becoming a Benedictine monk.

We shared an On the Journey short in which Matt, Ken, and Kenny asked the question: can a baby be a Christian?

And on the latest Insights, Deacon Joe Allison reflected on how he thought about historical Christian figures when he was an Evangelical minister, and how he thinks now about the Communion of Saints.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION

Zubair Simonson shared the story of St. Mark Ji Tianxiang, the opium addict who became a saint.

And Fr. Ed Broom encouraged anyone who’s considering coming back to the sacraments to consider the 10 “c’s” of a good Confession.

APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK

Philip Kosloski reflected on an interesting reality: that All Saints Day gets bigger every year.

And Jimmy Akin pondered whether or not Jonah actually died while in the belly of the great fish.

A member whose return to faith is causing resentment among their non-practicing Catholic family, another member with lots of questions about Church history, and all our members who are learning new things and making new friends in 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!
