The latest from CHNetwork

This week’s episode of The Journey Home was a fascinating discussion with former atheist Dr. Jennifer Frey about how studying philosophy led her to Catholicism.

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.

Also on Marcus’ blog, he continued his discussion of “Red Zone Thinking” by focusing on the importance of contentment.

In our latest written conversion story, Jeff Miller shared how gratitude led him from atheism to the Catholic Faith.

In a new On the Journey, Ken Hensley shared the story of how he first became a Christian.

And in our latest Insights video, Dr. Jennifer Frey pondered how to propose Christ in a post-Christian age.

Meanwhile, around the web…

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION

Jennifer Sokol explored the story of a Jewish musician who became a Carmelite priest.

And John Grondelski used this week’s feast of St. Polycarp as an opportunity to take a deeper look at the life of this early Christian martyr who was converted by St. John the Apostle.

APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK

Catholic News Agency posted some things to know about the Catholic Church in Ukraine.

The Pillar published a rundown of some of the Catholic saints and blesseds from Ukraine.

And rain has uncovered part of a 1600 year-old Byzantine basilica in Israel.

A married couple who are both interested in Catholicism but not at the same level, a convert trying to find the right spiritual director, and all our members getting ready to enter their first Lent as RCIA candidates and catechumens – 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!
