"I didn’t become Catholic because I was disillusioned with God. I became Catholic because I was so deeply rooted in my relationship with Jesus that I had to keep following Him—even when He led me in unexpected directions."

Former Assembly of God pastor Ansel Evans shares his journey to the Catholic Faith:

"How does prayer transform us? On the one hand, we can rightly say that the transformative power of prayer is always a matter of God’s grace. At the same time, Jesus calls his disciples to prayer and to works of love because God works through our free cooperation with His will."

NEW episode of On the Journey!

Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley, and Kenny Burchard continue their series on Clement of Rome, and what he tells us about early Christianity.

In this episode, they look at what Clement has to say about the relationship between faith and works, and our call to respond to and cooperate with God’s grace. Do his writings bear any resemblance to the Reformation doctrine of “faith alone”?

Happy feast of St. Augustine!

Deacon Kevin Stephenson first discovered St. Augustine while in seminary at Oral Roberts University, and wasn't exactly sure what to make of him.

But when he read the Confessions, it moved him deeply; he was able to relate to the struggles of St. Augustine on a very personal level.

He shares how he came to choose St. Augustine as his patron when he was received into the Catholic Church:

As a Methodist pastor, Shane Page preached and taught one of the central tenets of John Wesley’s theology; that God’s grace acts in us, and that we are called to cooperate with it as we grow in holiness.

Shane shares how he found these same themes robustly expressed in the life of the Catholic Church, from the concept of the Universal Call to Holiness, to the Little Way of St. Therese, and more.

For her feast day today -- the St. Monica Sodality Prayer for Fallen Away Catholics:

*****

Eternal and merciful Father, I give You thanks for the gift of Your Divine Son Who suffered, died and rose for all mankind. I thank You also for my Catholic Faith and ask Your help that I may grow in fidelity by prayer, by works of charity and penance, by reflection on Your Word, and by regular participation in the Sacraments of Penance and the Holy Eucharist.

You gave Saint Monica a spirit of selfless love manifested in her constant prayer for the conversion of her son Augustine. Inspired by boundless confidence in Your power to move hearts, and by the success of her prayer. I ask the grace to imitate her constancy in my prayer for [name(s)] who no longer share(s) in the intimate life of Your Catholic family. Grant through my prayer and witness that (he/she/they) may be open to the promptings of Your Holy Spirit, and return to loving union with Your Church. Grant also that my prayer be ever hopeful and that I may never judge another, for You alone can read hearts. I ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

St. Monica, pray for us!

Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley, and Kenny Burchard continue their series on Clement of Rome, and what he tells us about early Christianity.

In this episode, they look at what Clement has to say about worship in the early Church. How was it structured? Who presided over it? And what resemblance, if any, did it bear to how Christians worship today?
