Dr. Bud Marr was raised with a strong faith in Jesus as an Evangelical Protestant. As he grew older, his desire to anchor that faith more deeply led him to look into the early Church, and he was profoundly impacted by the beauty of liturgy, history, and especially the ancient Christian creeds that he found there. At first, he began to explore those questions in an Anglican context, but after studying the thought of John Henry Newman, Dr. Marr eventually became convicted that his desire to follow Christ was leading him into the Catholic Church.
