Fr. Paul Key – Former Presbyterian Pastor

As a young man, Fr. Paul felt a call to minister to Christ’s people, and went on to serve a Presbyterian congregation as a pastor for 18 years. However, the deeper he dug into Scripture, the more he began to discover passages that could only be understood in a Catholic context. That, combined with the Catholic Church’s stand on life, marriage, and morality all came together to help draw him home.  Fr. Paul was ordained a Catholic priest for the Diocese of Tyler, Texas, in 2007, and has made spreading the message of God’s mercy in the sacrament of confession a theme of his ministry.

Fr. Key’s first appearance on The Journey Home was in 1998, a decade before he became a priest- watch it here.
